Our Statement of Qualifications
MATECO Drilling Company provides its employees
with the best available equipment. All of our drilling rigs are
equipped with safety shut down brakes. Our Crew Chiefs complete
a DAILY DRILL RIG INSPECTION FORM prior to the operation of the
equipment. This form asks very specific questions about the condition
of the drilling equipment and the related safety system. The form
is dated and signed each day by the crew. Work cannot start unless
all systems are fully functional.
