    The key takeaways are that there was no industry recognized training or qualification for derrick inspectors until DSL created one. DSL provides training and qualifications for drilling structure inspections according to API standards.

    Drilling structures are inspected for issues like impact damage, fatigue damage, structural integrity, inspection of bolted and pinned connections, advanced corrosion, and sheave inspection.

    DSL provides training for drill crews to carry out Category I and II inspections according to API 4G. The training teaches personnel how to inspect drilling structures for issues after rig setup and on a daily basis.

    THE API 4G & 4F


    QUALIFIED
    DRILLING STRUCTURES INSPECTION

    11,000+ Drilling Structures Worldwide,


    50,000+ Workers working under and around them.
    No Industry Recognised Training or
    Qualification in existence for Derrick Inspectors.

    UNTIL NOW

    API 4F & 4G Qualified Drilling Structures Inspection


    Believe it or not, you will not have seen the above mentioned statement in our Industry
    before, why? Because until DSL created the qualification, there was none. Hard to
    imagine when you consider the loads that a drilling structure incurs on a day to day
    basis, and the fact that so many people work underneath them, 24/7.
    This course and qualification, in accordance with API 4G & 8B, has been endorsed by
    API through our API & IADC Approved Training Academy, thus enabling us to provide
    qualified Inspectors to inspect and verify the integrity of your derrick/drilling structure
    for its Category III & IV Inspections.
    DSL are licenced holders of API 4F & 8C for Drilling Structures & Hoisting Systems
    demonstrates our qualification as a Drilling Structures Specialist, which in turn enables
    us to provide qualified solutions to any issues that our Engineers may from time to time
    discover during inspections.
    Completing the total integrity of this service is our competency management system
    which is approved by OPITO, and if your structure needs rectification, our Derrick
    Technicians/Builders are also qualified to our API Derrick Technicians course and
    qualification.

    RigCentral - Inspections Database Software


    Many MODUs have struggled with the central storage of various equipment certification
    documents, inspection reports and rig assets. Customized Excel data bases and spread
    sheets make up the majority of tools for storing records on-board at present, none of
    which provides both operational and maintenance management with the transparency of
    this information at their fingertips, both onshore and offshore.
    DSL has introduced its RigCentral data base into the Industry to eliminate this problem once
    and for all, eradicating the time wasted in finding and checking reports and certification,
    along with giving you notification of when current certification is due to expire. RigCentral
    is built with flexibility in mind, the system utilises the latest Microsoft technologies and
    can be used as both an inspection system and a complete asset management system. It is
    an adaptable database and includes unique tools for analysis, summary and presentation.
    RigCentral enables time and money to be saved, providing the rig/fleet with a central
    database system to manage any inspection activity, including but not limited to:

    LGI

    Dropped Object Surveys

    Drilling Tools

    BHA/Tubulars

    Crane Inspection & Testing

    Life Boats
