Abstract

CLAIMED TO BRING TO THE OIL DRILLING INDUSTRY THE RECOGNISED SUPERIORITIES OF ELECTRIC POWER IN A POWER RIG, which, for the first time, is competitively priced with other forms of power rig, a new standard package diesel‐electric plant has been developed by ALCO Products Inc., of Schenectady, N.Y., U.S.A. It is an integral, self‐contained source of power, which can drill a well anywhere offshore or on land. Its first application has recently been mounted aboard the new oil drilling barge The Henry Bell.
