Slant-hole rig

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003444

A drilling rig specifically designed to drill wells at an inclined angle from the surface, rather than vertically. This equipment is employed for directional drilling, allowing access to hydrocarbon reservoirs that are not directly beneath the surface location. Slant-hole rigs are often used in environmentally sensitive areas or for multi-well pads.
