Flexibility in the field is critical. That’s why our rigs are designed with the versatility and reliability to provide superior performance in even the most difficult and unpredictable drilling conditions.

Whether you need desert rigs or you’re drilling in the Arctic, when you choose NOV you’re backed by an industry leader with more than 170 years of drilling experience. We integrate our advanced technology, such as the NOVOS reflexive drilling system, with rig equipment to enable scalable control, monitoring, and optimization of drilling operations across your fleet.
