SECTION 1—GENERAL DESCRIPTION  


        The Taylor C500 Workover Unit is a heavy-duty service package mounted on a 5-axle off-road carrier. The unit is comprised of a
carrier, power package, drawworks, and mast. The package is for highly mobile land operations. 



        The
rig carrier is a proprietary design manufactured by Taylor Rigs. The carrier has 5 axles with 4 driving hubs. Axle location is specifically engineered for optimum weight
distribution, minimal turning radius, and heavy-duty off-road operations. 


        The
power package is comprised of (1) one 475 hp diesel engine with automatic transmission. The engine and transmission combination has been reviewed by the component
manufacturers for correct application and installation. 


        The
unit includes a DD260 drawworks package. The innovative package is lightweight and provides exceptional strength and performance. The drawworks has full disc brakes,
heavy-duty right angle box, and full guards and covers. The drawworks is designed for ease of service and maintenance. Taylor utilizes "off the shelf" bearings and seals for reduced cost
and ease of availability, and simplified one-step brake adjustment. Drawworks features remote bearing lubrication for fast service and outboard clutches for ease of accessibility and
increased cooling performance. 


        The
104 ft. (31.7m), 240,000lb (109 MT) mast is a telescoping design, manufactured in accordance with API and Taylor Rigs strict quality control processes. The mast includes an automatic
racking board and telescopes hydraulically. 


        The
rig will be supplied with all equipment listed in this contract and designed to operate in the environment described in Section 2 of this contract. 



        IMPORTANT NOTE: All Taylor contracts are prepared based on information provided by the customer, broker, or other source. Unless specified, this contract may not
contain all equipment or tools required to complete a specific job.


        Due
to the complex and varied configurations, Taylor Rigs, LLC assumes no responsibility for items or equipment omitted from this contract.
