Jack-up rigs are becoming increasingly popular. Traditionally used in shallow water, they have evolved into robust innovations – stretching to subsea limits, these rigs operate in up to 575 feet (175 metres) of water and drill up to 35,000 feet. Jackup rigs market value is anticipated to increase at a faster rate in the coming future. It owns to the rise in the level of urbanization and offshore industrial activities. Jackup rigs are MODUs, which means mobile offshore drilling units. It provides a stable and movement-free platform to carry on certain operations. They can provide a landing area for the helicopters, unloading the deck for various hulls, crew stations for several activities, and also enable drilling and extraction activities. Jackup rigs are fixed in the ocean bed. They can easily work in water that is up to 490 feet deep. They also help in exploration and extraction activities which are carried in offshore regions. Jackup rigs market share is increasing because of the increasing industrial operations. Research & Development projects of oil and gas industries are carried out in distant offshore regions which are, in turn, increasing the demand for jackup rigs as they are self- elevating and motion free.
