In oil drilling, the drilling tool is driven to break the rock, drill into the ground, and drill a wellbore with a specified depth, which is used for oil or gas extraction machines to obtain oil or natural gas. A commonly used oil drilling rig is mainly composed of eight major parts, including a power machine, transmission machine, working machine, and auxiliary equipment.

These eight systems are (hoisting system, rotating system, drilling fluid circulation system, transmission system, control system, and monitoring display instrument, power drive system, drilling rig base, drilling rig auxiliary equipment system.

Esimtech's rig installation simulators combine petroleum engineering, virtual reality, and computer technology. The simulator is able to show the whole process of rig installation. And use 3D animation to let students master the lifting process of derrick and substructure. All of the levers, gauges, and switches are the same as the real device. The system enables students to learn to operate hydraulic power equipment and drilling rig control systems. The system also provides testing sessions.
