Steel ToeTM
Walking System
Mobility & Functionality
Spend less time rigging up and down by simply, and safely, walking to your next well. Our innovative Steel ToeTM walking system moves your
rig while keeping critical equipment stationary or mounted in place and ready for the next well. Wireless controls ensure safe operations by
allowing your personnel to stay at safe distances during moves. We configure the system, maximizing the effectiveness of your operations.
Our system consists of four (4) lift and slide walking feet, modifications to the substructure and system controls. The integrated cable
management system, gravity mud return, high pressure piping extensions and choke reconfigurations integrate your backyard for full
functionality.
