GCI has
installed and commissioned a third mud pump upgrade for
Nabors Drilling. The upgrade was made to an existing
SCR House to facilitate the individual or simultaneous
operation of a third mud pump. Power contactors with
associated bus work and cabling were added to two SCR bays –
the MCC and DC Motor plug boards were also modified to
accommodate the additional pump. Additionally, a small
control console, containing all controls and annunciation
required for the addition, was fabricated and installed
adjacent to the existing driller’s control console.
The unit was delivered to Nabors Drilling in El Paso, TX.
