Diesel-to-Hybrid Path

  • 1. Load audit — rig cycle, generator count, fuel logs.
  • 2. Configuration — capacity and inverter sizing against the audit.
  • 3. Integration — parallel into the existing rig power network (integration drawing set included).
  • 4. Optimization — dispatch tuning plus remote monitoring over the EMS interface.

FAQ

What is workover rig energy storage?

A battery system that parallels the rig’s diesel gensets to shave peaks and recover lowering energy, cutting diesel use — ours run at 180.5/108.2kWh with liquid heating for cold sites.

How much diesel can it save?

Industry studies report 20–30% fuel reduction for hybrid rig power; our field deployments report energy cost down to 8.1% of pure diesel operation.

Can it handle fracking peak loads?

The grid-tied 1,490kWh/1,000kW and off-grid 1,225kWh/1,200kW containers are sized for fracturing fleet load profiles.

Cold-climate operation?

Workover systems ship with liquid heating and insulation options; the platform is rated to -30°C.
