Independence Contract Drilling is a premium land drilling services provider. From our Houston rig-up yard and corporate headquarters we develop and assemble our ShaleDriller(TM) series rig design based on E&P operator feedback and field requirements. ShaleDrillers are designed for field safety, rig up and down with pins at man level - they are fast moving and capable of walking in multiple directions. The ShaleDriller series rigs are AC, programmable, energy efficient BiFuel with custom designed to be best in class for the development of our clients' most demanding and financially impactful exploration and development programs. We excel in shale plays and other areas where completions require long horizontal sections, drilled quickly and accurately to minimize open hole time and shale swelling, and where multi-well pads offer the option to walk between well bores and provide the opportunity to plan 3 hour release-to-spud times.
In short, ICD ShaleDriller walking rigs provide a compelling value proposition to our customers, well above legacy mechanical and DC equipment and skidding AC systems. The fine control of key drilling parameters offered by ShaleDriller drilling systems allows same-class wells to be drilled in half the time required by mechanical or DC equipment. The combination of the ShaleDriller's "Safety by Design" engineering process, more efficient mobilization and AC/VFD drilling controls allows our customers to drill more wells per rig per year.
