SJF450DB Fixed Platform Drilling Rig

SJF450DB Fixed Platform Drilling Rig

SJ Petroleum Machinery Co. (SJ), a Sinopec Group subsidiary and China Critical Technological Equipment Nationalization Base, is a top-tier Chinese manufacturer of onshore and offshore drilling equipment, with over 200 product models and API/ISO/HSE certifications.

Full AC Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Technology:The SJF450DB employs an advanced AC VFD (DBS) electric drive system, the gold standard for modern drilling rigs. Unlike older mechanical or SCR-driven rigs, AC VFD systems offer stepless speed regulation, dynamic braking, and maximum torque output at zero rotation speed. AC-powered rigs have fewer electrical connections, better motor efficiency, produce less noise and fewer emissions, and enjoy superior power distribution.

High Hook Load Capacity – 4.500kN (1.000.000 lbs):With a maximum hook load of 4.500kN (1.000.000 lbs) and a drawworks rated at 1.470kW (2.000 hp), the SJF450DB belongs to SJ‘s family of offshore fixed platform drilling rigs that includes the SJF180DB (1.800kN), SJF225DB (2.250kN), SJF315DB (3.150kN), and the flagship SJF450DB.
