Integrated Project Logistics
International Land Rig Moves. Offshore Rig Parts. One Controlled Logistics Desk.
For complete land rigs, an international move is not one shipment. It is a controlled program connecting the rig owner, drilling contractor, operator, rental terms, equipment register, rig-down release, heavy transport, ports, vessels, customs, destination sequence, return obligations, and the next operating deadline. For offshore rigs, OGL’s scope is deliberately narrower: we move the spares, parts, tools, rental items, and repair returns the offshore unit needs—not the rig itself.
OGL provides the senior-led logistics control layer around that program. We turn disconnected requirements into one responsibility map, one readiness sequence, one operating picture, and one closeout trail—so the client can remain focused on drilling, asset readiness, and the next well.
Land-rig moves and offshore parts under one visible control record.

Treat every land-rig module and offshore part as a controlled asset.
One register. One release plan. One controlled sequence.
Onshore Rig Moves
Rig-down release, module identity, lifting and fleet interfaces, permits, staging, convoy sequence, site delivery and receipt.
Offshore Rig Parts & Spares
Critical and planned parts, repair returns, customs, approved cargo units, supply-base handoff, vessel acceptance and field receipt.
Rig Spares & Returns
Criticality, OEM identity, dangerous-goods screening, emergency routing, receipt, RMA, repair and return-loop control.
Mobilization Compliance
Customs identity, export controls, temporary admission, DG, packing, cleanliness, security and discharge evidence.
OGL coordinates complete land-rig logistics and offshore parts movement. OGL does not transport, tow, relocate, or operate intact offshore rigs or MODUs. Rig-down, rig-up, lifting, engineering, offshore operations, technical acceptance, and operating authority remain with the contractually appointed qualified parties.

This Is Land-Rig Move and Offshore-Parts Program Control—Not Generic Freight Forwarding.
For land-rig moves, the basis begins with ownership, contract responsibilities, rig configuration, current condition, move state, origin, destination, operating deadline, technical releases, equipment identity, packing, preservation, permits, customs treatment, export controls, dangerous goods, available infrastructure, local-provider capability, and final disposition. Offshore support begins with the approved part or equipment identity, release, packaging, customs status, accepted route, supply-base or vessel handoff, field receipt, and any return obligation.
OGL personally drives the logistics interfaces. We contact responsible parties, expose missing inputs, track actions and approvals, coordinate qualified providers, maintain movement and customs status, and escalate the decision required. The client receives facts, owners, due dates, exposure, and next steps—not a stack of disconnected carrier updates.
| Control Gate | Core Question | OGL Control Output |
|---|---|---|
| Define | What land rig, offshore support item, scope, contract, countries, deadline, and responsibilities govern the program? | Basis of movement, assumptions register, responsibility matrix, information-gap list |
| Release | Is each asset technically released, isolated, identified, packed, preserved, classified, documented, and accepted? | Asset and package register, readiness forecast, document status, hold-point log |
| Route | Are route, equipment, permits, lift interfaces, terminal, vessel, carrier, custody, and schedule aligned for the awarded cargo scope? | Movement sequence, provider matrix, booking and permit status, daily operating picture |
| Clear | Are export, import, temporary admission, tax, security, DG, biosecurity, and destination requirements satisfied? | Customs identity register, broker and authorization status, exception and deadline tracker |
| Deliver | Can the land-rig site or offshore receiving interface accept the cargo in the required order, window, condition, and access plan? | Arrival and staging plan, delivery sequence, supply-base or site-readiness register, proof of handover |
| Reconcile | Have temporary entries, returns, repairs, substitutions, consumptions, damage, claims, and outstanding assets been closed? | Final asset reconciliation, customs closeout, shipment dossier, outstanding-action register |
Rig Solutions Work Packages
Complete Land Rig Moves
Tender assumptions, responsibility mapping, equipment and package registers, international mobilization, destination sequence, demobilization, return, repair, storage, sale, or redeployment of complete land rigs are controlled as one lifecycle.
Onshore Rig Moves
Land-rig programs connect rig-down release, heavy-haul capacity, route and permit control, fleet sequence, staging, cranes and rigging interfaces, journey management, wellsite access, and delivery to the owner’s rig-up plan.
Offshore Rig Parts & Spares Logistics
For jack-ups, semi-submersibles, drillships, and other offshore units, OGL coordinates only the supporting spares, parts, tools, rental items, repair returns, approved cargo units, customs, supply-base handoff, vessel acceptance, field receipt, and backload interfaces. OGL does not move, tow, dry-transport, relocate, or operate the intact offshore rig or MODU.
Rig Spares & Repair Returns
Critical and planned parts are controlled from confirmed identity and release through export, transport, customs, field receipt, core return, repair-center status, recertification handoff, and customs reconciliation.
Mobilization Compliance
Customs identity, export jurisdiction, restricted-party screening, temporary admission, dangerous goods, container and packing controls, used-equipment cleanliness, regulated exceptions, and re-export closure receive named owners and release evidence.
One Rig Register. One Responsibility Map.
The controlled rig register can connect asset or package identity, owner, rental reference, description, make/model, serial and part numbers, quantity, condition, country of origin, value, weight, dimensions, center of gravity where required, package, preservation, dangerous-goods status, customs classification, export status, temporary-entry line, release, movement, custody, exception, destination receipt, repair, substitution, consumption, and final disposition.
That register does not replace the owner’s asset-management system. It becomes the shared logistics and customs operating record needed to prevent a land-rig module, offshore spare, tool, core, certificate, or temporary-entry obligation from disappearing between organizations.
The Client Keeps the Rig Mission. OGL Carries the Logistics Burden.
| Client and technical authorities retain | OGL controls under the awarded logistics scope |
|---|---|
| Drilling operations, rig configuration, technical release, rig-down/rig-up, commissioning, and acceptance | Requirements, interfaces, asset data, readiness, provider actions, movement, customs status, destination sequence, and closeout evidence |
| Engineering calculations, lift design, route engineering, offshore operations, vessel command, and regulated approvals | Provider appointment workflow, information exchange, deliverable register, review status, comments, approvals, hold points, and schedule impact |
| Part criticality, OEM acceptance, interchangeability, repair, test, recertification, and installation approval | Item identity, supplier and PO status, routing, export/import, shipment milestones, field receipt, RMA, repair logistics, and return reconciliation |
Available for Defined Work Packages and Prequalification.
OGL can engage as a prime logistics coordinator, a specialist land-rig move work-package provider, an offshore parts logistics desk, or an extension of an operator, drilling contractor, rig owner, rental company, OEM, EPC contractor, or supply-chain team. Scope, authority, staffing, systems, reporting, country coverage, providers, insurance, HSE requirements, and technical interfaces are confirmed before commitment.
We do not claim to operate rigs, perform drilling, conduct rig-down or rig-up, issue engineering, command vessels, execute towing, move intact offshore rigs, act as class or marine warranty authority, make customs rulings, or replace OEM technical acceptance. Those responsibilities remain with the contractually appointed qualified parties.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers for procurement, project controls, logistics, and site teams evaluating the execution path.
Can OGL coordinate a complete land rig move overseas?
OGL can coordinate the international logistics program for a complete land rig move, subject to an approved basis of move, responsibility matrix, equipment data, country requirements, provider qualification, insurance, technical releases, and contract scope. This capability does not extend to movement, towing, dry transport, relocation, or operation of intact offshore rigs or MODUs.
Can OGL support both rented and owner-operated rigs?
Yes. The intake must identify the owner, lessee or operator, drilling contractor, rental terms, maintenance and damage responsibilities, equipment schedules, substitutions, return condition, customs treatment, and final destination so the logistics register aligns with the commercial contract.
Can OGL move a land rig from one country directly to another?
Potentially. Onward land-rig redeployment requires review of the current import regime, re-export requirements, new destination rules, export controls, owner and contract approvals, remaining consumables, repairs, substitutions, clean condition, transport options, and final closeout obligations before a routing commitment is made.
Does OGL move intact offshore rigs or MODUs?
No. OGL’s offshore scope is limited to the logistics of spares, parts, tools, rental items, repair returns, and approved support cargo. Movement, towing, dry transport, relocation, positioning, and operation of intact offshore rigs or MODUs are not offered.
