History
ALTA Rig was founded in 2005, with the prime directive of building superior AC Drilling Drawworks and designing new technologies to aid our customers in making themselves more productive and competitive in the oilfield market.

In our approximate 15 year history, we have received many accolades for our superior product quality and design.  We highly encourage you to contact us for a list of clients and references to find out first hand the superior craftsmanship of ALTA Rig Systems.


Drawworks
Gear driven drawworks are now the industry standard when it comes to oil & gas drilling rigs. The major reasons are improved safety, optimal performance & control, significant weight & size reduction, and considerably increased reliability. Combining the different performance characteristics of a dynamic emergency brake, a regenerative brake via the drive motors, with an intelligent automated Drawworks Control package provides a higher standard.

When it comes to Gear Driven drawworks, nobody does it better than ALTA Rig Drawworks. ALTA Rig drawworks were pioneers in this field and continue to be the industry standard. Since 2005, we have produced over 350+ gear driven drawworks for various drilling contractors world wide.

Gear Driven Drawworks are avialable in various sizes and configurations.
  • 400HP to 6000HP (and larger)
  • Single speed, 2-speed, and 3-speed options
  • Single motor or multiple drive motors
  • On-shore and off-shore applications

ALTA Rig Systems offers 3 different drilling drawworks concepts which provide the most advanced drawworks in the industry.

Service
ALTA Rig Systems controls every aspect of manufacture.  All drawworks are made in Alberta by superior tradespersons.  A.R.S. is not a company that Sub-Contracts out parts to the “cheapest bidder.”  Every component is made under our direct supervision with high precision CNC turning and milling enters and assembled according to our high tolerance engineering criteria.  We do not farm out our components for manufacture.  We design and have direct impact on the production of our drawworks.

However, rig incidents do happen and we stand behind our product.  And should something happen on your drilling rig, we have 24-Hour service available.  It is in our interest that your rig returns to production as quickly as possible.
