We’re seeing significant delays in the supply chain for new rigs, especially in sourcing steel and specialized drilling equipment. I’ve been tracking the latest shipments and notice that timelines have extended by several weeks, which impacts our operational schedules. Has anyone else experienced similar issues, or do you have insights on mitigating these delays?
But i’m seeing similar delays, especially with specialized drilling equipment. Agree on the timing part — we had to adjust our project timelines by a month just to accommodate steel shortages. Have you thought about alternative suppliers or even local options?
It’s tough out there! Have you considered alternative suppliers for that specialized drilling equipment? Could save some time.
I’ve faced similar delays too, particularly with steel. One thing that’s helped us is establishing closer communication with suppliers to get real-time updates on shipment statuses. Have you tried doing that yet?
