HAS WW 185
The HAS WW 185 is the smallest of the big plants that joins the ranks of Anger’s deep drilling rigs segment. This robust plant has proven itself on many fields of deep drilling technology so far. Thus, for example, it was used to drill exploration wells for shale gas or for gas storages. Furthermore, WW 185 is employed for research wells (see article “Commission for a research well at Erfurt, Germany”) and thermal water wells.
