Crown Alert Crown Saver Industry Buzz
"My
crews and I love the Crown Alert system. You can't turn it off.
You can't bypass. You can't forget to set it."
- Neil Neilson, rig manager, Jomax Drilling Rig 4UE (5160 m
capacity)
"The
Crown Alert System doesn't change our operation one bit but now
we can work with the comfort of safety."
-
Wayne Duffy, rig manager, Jade Drilling Rig 2 (1100 m capacity)
"When
working with the blocks close to the crown, my eyes are focused
on the drill string or the weight indicator. The buzzer alarm
is a great way to know how close the blocks are to the crown.
I know exactly how much more room I have."
- Wayne Brown, rig manager, Akita Drilling Rig 44UE (6700 m
capacity)
"We
often have a problem with line double-spooling on the drum, which
can play havoc with conventional crown savers. But not with the
Crown Alert, since it's only concerned with the block location."
