RigMS Asset Maintenance

RigMS™ MAINTENANCE
RigMS Maintenance is an easy to use system that includes a web-based application and database that give you complete control and visibility of your assets and their maintenance requirements. Get the most from your invested capital dollar. Extend the life of your equipment and reduce the cost of maintenance by enforcing service standards and scheduling maintenance prior to incurring down time at the rig. This is all about managing the equipment service processes so you can offer the maximum drilling time possible to your customers.

RigMS Asset Maintenance schedule

Information is available when you need it anywhere via the internet. Our application allows you to upload your existing asset information and procedures or to input them as you go. You can upload the schematic, picture, maintenance manual/schedule or the build of materials associated with any asset allowing you to have all required service requirements ready for execution...on demand.

Streamline equipment maintenance
The RigMS application lets you maintain your equipment with very little effort, having all the maintenance procedures available to people who need them either on the web or on the handheld. The system tells them what to do, when to do it and how to do it and all they have to do is scan a tag or pull up a piece of equipment on the handheld device.

Man hours
Additionally, drilling contractors can also show the Asset Maintenance Detail report to Operators to gain competitive advantage when operators are looking for the best bang for their buck.

Minimize downtime
Reduce rig downtime by improving the scheduling of routine maintenance. You will be able to see trends across your company and third party vendors while answering questions like: "Why are my mud pumps breaking in the Rockies?" and "Is it the vendor or is it the lube?"

Among other tracking/reporting benefits, your maintenance manager can compare assets and determine if one is working better than the other. By being able to do that, he can standardize on better equipment thereby effectively reducing his failures on the rig.

By ensuring the assets are being serviced as required, this will help prevent downtime due to the possible neglecting of the recommended maintenance schedule.

Maximize asset life
A fundamental advantage of asset maintenance is of course maximizing the lifespan of your asset. By being able to properly maintain your assets you are ensuring a longer asset life and a more cost efficient business model.

HOW IT WORKS

RFID tags can with stand extreme conditions
RFID tags can withstand extreme conditions

RFID tags
Our RFID tags allow companies to use the same tags for different applications, since the tags have a read range from an inch to up to 20 feet, the same tags can be used for Asset Tracking, Asset Maintenance and Inventory. The inlays that are used in the tags are standard off-the-shelf RFID inlays, but the encapsulation (tag) is what differentiates our tag from the rest of the competitors. The encapsulation allows the tag to survive extreme wear and tear, high heat, high psi pressure wash etc. which will ensure that the tags can survive the rigors of the drilling industry.

Hand-held scanning device
Real time asset management in the palm of your hand! Satisfying Class I, Div I & II requirements, this piece of equipment has been dropped off a three-story balcony, ran over by a truck, submerged in water, hammered and torched and still preserved its functionality. Much more than a scanner, this device is the vehicle for the RigMS application that allows you to track and manage your assets. With the RigMS web based application, there is no lag or delay, data is instantly transferred from the hand held device via NOV® satellite connectivity and the rig site wireless network to the RigMS database. Real time asset management information is immediately available to office personnel. You can also make notes using the keyboard or use the camera to take pictures of equipment relevant to work orders. Information is auto-saved every 30 seconds to the one gigabyte memory card that easily stores at least two weeks of data without synching with the system.

RigMS ASSET TRACKING

RigMS is currently a stand alone combination of software and hardware that lets you track your assets with very little effort, having all the maintenance procedures available to people who need them either on the web or on a portable handheld that you can take on-site. With RigMS Asset Tracking and Management System, you will minimize downtime, maximize asset life and streamline maintenance procedures and reduce cost.

Manage your assets before they manage you
Track your equipment by giving a tree-view of all your assets and their entire history. With the RigMS hand held device you can scan the RigMS asset tag to access comprehensive asset documentation including warranty documents, material transfer requests etc. are available. With the RigMS web based application, there is no lag or delay, data is instantly transferred from the hand held device via NOV satellite connectivity and the rig site wireless network to the RigMS database. Real time asset management information is immediately available to office personnel. You can also make notes using the keyboard or use the camera to take pictures of equipment relevant to work orders. Information is auto-saved every 30 seconds to the one gigabyte memory card that easily stores at least two weeks of data without synching with the system.

Minimize downtime
By knowing where all your assets are at any time, you no longer have to play the waiting game to look for that extra gauge or console. The quicker you can locate the equipment you need, the quicker you can be back up and running.

Reduce capital expenditures
You've heard stories of companies buying back there own equipment. RigMS helps prevent that from happening to you. Through asset tracking, if a motor goes down rather than purchase a new one, you can now check real time to see if you have one somewhere else that can be leveraged.

Are you compliant?
Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requirements now require CEOs and CFOs to sign off on all financial documents, and since almost all the drilling equipment are capital assets and drilling companies have had a history of obtaining new assets when the goings good and losing them when the market slows down. In some cases they even buy back their old equipment because they don't know its theirs or cant prove its theirs.

Reduce the risk and cost of asset management and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance by knowing Real Time the location of each asset. Implementing RFID tags and hand held scanners eliminating repetitive transfer or keying of asset information which reduces the risk of error.
