This free and editable drilling rig inspection checklist makes inspections easier and more organised for everyone.

Drilling rigs are some of the most dangerous workplaces or 'sites' on Earth. Working on and around a drilling rig introduces many of the most dangerous hazards associated with industrial work including heights, dangerous chemicals, high pressures, explosive materials and more.

To prevent disasters and ensure that everyone working on these rigs does remain safe (and that the reputation of drilling and energy companies remains in tact), companies and workers engage in a number of safety procedures including drilling rig inspections.

These inspections are designed to guide an inspector, auditor or applicable person through a series of checklist questions which have been created to surface any obvious, urgent or problematic issues.

The drilling rig inspection checklist you see to the right is a good and comprehensive example of what this rig inspection may look like.

The template comes pre-built with sections for permits, site, stairs and ladders, the rig floor, fuel tanks, electrical systems, material handling and more.

using a standardised and thorough checklist like this can dramatically reduce the chance of minor and major safety issues on your rigs and sites.

You can use this drilling rig inspection checklist for free, and access and complete it on any mobile, tablet or desktop device.

You can also export the resulting checklist report, so that you can make your inspection process nice and efficient while having the convenience of perfectly formatted PDF reports as well.
