A leader in the upstream services segment, Shiv-Vani offers a full spectrum of drilling operations. The company also has an extensive experience in drilling exploration, appraisal and production wells, the latter ranging from 1,500 to 5,000 meters in depth. Our drilling services include:
We operate 21 onshore rigs, including one with a top drive system. This facilitates faster drilling and augments operational efficiency.
Shiv-Vani owns one of the largest fleets of onshore rigs in India. The drilling capacity ranges from 450 to 2000 HP. Our rigs are capable of drilling wells up to a maximum depth of 6,000 metres depending on the reserves available. The technologically advanced DTH rigs can drill through hard rocks and boulder beds.
Our company also specialises in directional drilling. This includes oilfield directional drilling, horizontal directional drilling and in-seam directional drilling (coal bed methane).
Shiv-Vani has extensively invested in shot hole drilling. Our 233-strong fleet of truck-mounted, heli and portable rigs are well-equipped to carry out intricate operations in varied terrains, ranging from mountains to marshland and dense forests. Shot-hole drilling is the first exploratory activity to identify hydrocarbon reserves. Rigs are used to drill holes of varying depths (usually 15 to 30 mt) in order to carry out seismic surveys and data acquisition activities. The field season is approximately nine months, as no drilling activities are undertaken during the monsoon period. Shiv-Vani has successfully drilled more than 4 million metres of shot holes with depths varying from 20 to 50 metres.
All our operations are carried out in strict compliance with relevant health, safety and environmental regulations. The company has a well-defined Preventive Maintenance System (PMS) in place to ensure optimum utilisation of equipments. Half-yearly inspections by Third Party Inspectors like OES, BV and MODUSPEC help us conform to industry best practices. It also enables us to meet the expectations of our national & international clients.
The company's deep drilling rigs - National-110-UE (1500 HP) and Ideco-E-2100 (2000 HP), can be detached into modules of less then 15 tonnes. This enables easy transportation to logistically difficult terrain. We also own high-performance and fast-moving mobile rigs. 80% of the rig items are on wheels to facilitate maximum flexibility.
Shiv-Vani is a registered member of the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC). All its rigs are listed with this premier organization for LTA (Lost Time Accident) certification. The company has a well-defined quality policy to provide the highest standard of services and ensure optimum performance with minimum breakdown hours. We have formed strategic alliances with leading global corporations to provide technologically advanced solutions & services, fail proof backup and constant support. This brings more efficiency to the upstream services segment and creates value for our customers.
