    The document provides guidelines from the IADC Rig Moving Committee for safely conducting rig mobilization operations at night. It recommends implementing measures to mitigate additional hazards, such as providing adequate lighting, not performing simultaneous operations, allowing only one-way traffic during infield moves, exercising proper fatigue management, and assigning radios to all key personnel. Night rig move recommendations include illuminating routes, complying with DOT regulations, wearing high-visibility vests and headlamps, and inspecting work areas before work begins. Companies are encouraged to develop their own internal programs building upon these best practices.

    IADC GUIDELINES

    RIG MOBILIZATION NIGHT OPERATIONS


    Introduction
    It is the recommendation of the IADC Rig Moving
    Committee that appropriate measures be
    implemented in order to mitigate the additional
    hazards of rig moving night operations. These
    are to be used as the Rig Moving Committee’s
    recommended best practices and companies are
    encouraged to develop their own internal
    programs to further reduce the risks associated
    with night-based rig mobilization.

    Night Rig Move Recommendations:


    • Provide adequate lighting on location in
    order to reduce all blind spots
    Figure 1 - Rig Move Night Operations
    • If applicable illuminate the route on
    Definitions: infield moves
    • Do not perform simultaneous ops
    Walking/skidding – Moving rig/parts to new well • Do not transport permitted loads on
    within same location public roads
    Intra-pad move – Complete rig down/rig up on • Allow only one-way traffic during infield
    same location move transit
    • Exercise proper fatigue management
    Infield move – Not moving on public roads
    • Relieve day crews with properly rested
    (moving within the lease)
    night crews
    Long-haul move – Typically involves highway • Do not exceed DOT regulations for hours
    and/or interstate over the road move to a worked
    different geographical location and/or a • Assign radios to all key personnel
    contractor’s yard
    • All personnel should wear hi-visibility
    Daylight/Conventional move – Consolidate vests
    tours/crews with daylight hours only and shut • All personnel should wear head lamps
    down during night-time hours • Include all onsite personnel in pre-job
    planning discussions
    24-hour move – Not breaking tour/bringing in
    • Complete or open a new permit for all
    extra crews; trucking company will have to run a
