Real Voices from the Field
Our partners and customers from around the world share, in their own words, the journey they have taken with ACR Drilling.
Statements by Wanees Hweidi, on behalf of Venus Drilling Co. (Al Bashir Gadad Group Holding), sharing his professional opinion and operational feedback on ACR Drilling’s heavy equipment, after-sales technical support and spare parts supply, in the video above:
“Assalamu Alaikum, in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. We are Venus Company, and ACR Drilling Company is our main supplier in the drilling sector. We are currently operating seven drilling rigs of our own that we purchased from ACR Drilling Company. We bought one drilling rig and were satisfied, then we added two more drilling rigs, and immediately after that we ordered four more. And this is our eighth drilling rig. Today we carried out wire rope tension tests, pulling capacity tests and mud pump tests on our drilling rig, and, thank God, everything went as planned and was completed flawlessly, as always. ACR Drilling Company is, overall, a competent drilling rig manufacturer based in Konya, Türkiye. The most important thing for us is after-sales service. Any spare parts and personnel support we need can be provided in record time. I don’t think we could find anywhere else the full flexibility, support and quality we receive from them to ensure the success of the drilling rigs and the continuity of the work. Before turning to ACR Drilling Company, we made a comparison with most of the factories in Konya and found that ACR Drilling Company was the company that could meet our requirements. In general, Turkish drilling rigs, and especially ACR Drilling rigs in particular, have recently begun to develop quite noticeably, and they have now reached a level of quality and operational efficiency whose management truly requires meticulous attention, deep technical knowledge and broad experience. However, looking at the big picture, instead of opting for European and American models, which are very expensive, we decided that we could effectively meet all of our project requirements with these local solutions. Thank you very much for your time and understanding.”
At ACR Drilling, we take great pride in our strong strategic partnership with Venus Drilling Co. (Al Bashir Gadad Group Holding), which supports deep drilling operations and infrastructure development projects:
As an international heavy machinery and drilling rig manufacturer headquartered in Konya, Türkiye, ACR Drilling is fully dedicated to empowering the global energy, mining, geothermal and water well drilling sectors. Our expanding fleet of high-capacity hydraulic drilling rigs, mechanical drilling rigs, water well drilling rigs, mud pumps and heavy-duty drilling components is engineered to meet strict international standards while offering a cost-effective alternative to expensive European and American drilling equipment.
We extend our most sincere thanks to Wanees Hweidi and Venus Drilling Co. (Al Bashir Gadad Group Holding) for their continued trust and long-term cooperation, from the very first drilling rig shipments through to their eighth unit. Through fast spare parts delivery, comprehensive after-sales technical support, customized mast engineering solutions and unmatched flexibility in international project management, ACR Drilling will continue to ensure maximum operational uptime for our global partners.
Salah Eddine Salem Shnaiba, Operations Director of The Libyan Group for Oil and Energy Services (LIGOS) under Whiba Holding, delivered a high-profile industrial assessment of ACR Drilling’s heavy machinery manufacturing, quality control and export capacity:
“Assalamu Alaikum, I am Salaheddine Shnaiba, Operations Director, The Libyan Group for Oil and Energy Services (LIGOS), Whiba Holding. A Libyan deep water well drilling group. Today we are in Konya, visiting the ACR company. We already have a history with this company; we previously bought four drilling rigs from them and were very satisfied. Today we came to see the 4 drilling rigs we ordered; we bought four more drilling rigs from them, 8 drilling rigs in total. To be honest, their capacity is very good, the facilities they have are excellent, and their after-sales service is excellent. That is why we came again today; we inspected the drilling rigs and saw that they are ready to be shipped to Libya, including the other drilling rigs over there. So, , the other drilling rigs are over there. everything is ready. Thank God, our drilling rigs are very, of high quality. Here they follow up on the work perfectly. They manufacture everything themselves from A to Z, they have everything here, their factory is on site. Raw material comes in, they process it and assemble everything. Therefore, from my point of view, I recommend that all companies in Libya and around the world that want to procure equipment come and buy from them.”
At ACR Drilling, we are extremely proud to partner with LIGOS, Whiba Holding and Libya’s leading energy organizations to deliver high-performance oilfield, water well and energy/mineral exploration machinery:
As a leading global drilling rig manufacturer and heavy machinery exporter operating in Konya, Türkiye, ACR Drilling takes pride in its vertically integrated, end-to-end manufacturing facility. By processing raw material on site and producing heavy-duty drilling components from A to Z, we guarantee maximum structural integrity, strict quality assurance and high operational efficiency for demanding oilfield and energy services in North Africa.
We extend our most sincere thanks to Director Salaheddine Shnaiba and LIGOS (Whiba Holding) for their trust as they continue to expand their operational fleet with eight high-capacity ACR drilling rigs. With state-of-the-art hydraulic and mechanic drilling rigs, powerful mud pump systems, fast global spare parts delivery and reliable after-sales technical support, ACR Drilling remains firmly committed to supporting Libya’s energy infrastructure and the advancement of deep groundwater exploration.
Rachid Zergoun, owner of Zergoun Brothers Group, shared his glowing review and feedback on ACR Drilling’s high-performance water well drilling rigs, mud pumps and heavy equipment manufacturing services:
“We are currently in Konya, Türkiye. We purchased seven water well drilling rigs from ACR Drilling Company, an industry-leading manufacturer offering top-tier drilling equipment and heavy industrial machinery. ACR Drilling is an excellent company that delivers high quality, and we strongly recommend their products to global customers and industry partners. We have been working with them continuously since 2016 and have purchased 7 drilling rigs; they have proven to be extremely durable and reliable. Thank God, we have not experienced any operational problems with their equipment so far.
Today I am in Konya again to launch a new deep drilling project, so I have placed a new order for advanced drilling rigs. ACR Drilling’s engineers and team are recognized worldwide for their business integrity, customer-oriented approach and professionalism. In addition to the drilling rigs, we also purchased two high-pressure mud pumps and their spare parts from them — may God reward them. ACR Drilling continues to innovate, upgrade its technology and modernize its production line every year. They previously manufactured conventional mechanical drilling rigs; then, while developing those mechanical machines, they are now also manufacturing state-of-the-art hydraulic (top drive) drilling rigs. God willing, we will also buy their latest hydraulic rigs and expand our fleet with another heavy-duty drilling unit.
It is an outstanding manufacturing company. During our time in Konya, we observed that ACR Group is truly superior in its comprehensive warranty service, fast spare parts supply chain follow-up and, above all, its complete reliability in international business relations. Thank you!”
