The average height of a normal drilling rig is about 125ft, which is equivalent to a 10 or 11 storey building or around two-fifths the size of the clock tower of Big Ben. If a well needs it, the next stage of testing is the perforation and hydraulic fracturing (fracking) of the well to release the shale gas.
Orders for construction of as many as 39 jackup rigs have been announced with delivery dates ranging from 2005 to 2009. Most of these units are cantilevered units capable of drilling in water depths in the 300 to 400 foot range, and are considered to be premium units.
