Well servicing
Easternwell's Advantage Light Rig Extra at work servicing an oil well
High pressure with the smallest footprint
Atlas Copco's twinair compressor and high pressure booster fit on one trailer, as required by Easternwell
Easternwell’s Project Manager Gareth Ross said: “The rig has enhanced hands-free operations and a simplified rig up and rig down process making it safer for our rig crews in the field. Atlas Copco’s compressors supported this design as we were able to fit a TwinAir and Booster on one trailer.” Transportation and flexibility matter to Easternwell as rigs and equipment packages need to be easily rigged up and down at each site.
Easternwell’s rig packages are modular and designed to limit manual handling while maintaining productive time

Atlas Copco has the same philosophy when it comes to its compressed air packages: compact, easy to move and flexible enough to cater for multiple applications. Atlas Copco’s compressors come with an intuitive controller that allows the operator to select a certain pressure or to set the flow with the touch of a button.

Reliability in the scorching heat
Easternwell delivers high quality operations and the company seeks to work with suppliers that know uptime is key. Even in the hot and harsh Australian outback where temperatures can exceed 45°C, Easternwell’s equipment needs to keep running reliably. Atlas Copco’s compressors are built and tested to perform in Australia’s unique conditions.
“Atlas Copco’s compressors are especially suited to our operations because of their durability and low noise levels. Many of our rig packages have been upgraded to include Atlas Copco compressors to support serviceability across our rig fleet.” And with a widespread network of service points, Easternwell can always rely on a ready-to-drill compressor, wherever their next project takes them.
