The first domestic drilling rig was delivered, which is an R&D program and supported by TPAO and TUBITAK.
The first domestic drilling rig combines National Energy with National Technology and has a capacity of 350 tons. It successfully passed the rig-up process, the control/automation system installation, and the testing phase.

My dear project is Turkey’s first domestic and national land drilling rig which I have been the project manager of with joy, happiness, and pride during the process of its acceptance, beginning, delivery and closure. Thank you to everyone involved. Health to all of our hands, work, and hearts.
