Tubular Feeder System (TFS)
Mechanised Stand Building for Maximum Rig Efficiency
HI ENERGY designs and manufactures advanced horizontal offline stand-building machines, engineered to optimize tubular handling on the rig floor. Our Tubular Feeder Systems (TFS) can operate as standalone units or be fully integrated with our HICAT Catwalks for seamless rig mechanization.
Designed to build doubles or triples horizontally, our TFS units stage tubulars efficiently for presentation to the catwalk, which then delivers them to the rig floor. The cycle is fully reversible, enabling automated laydown operations with minimal manual intervention.
Key Benefits:
- Boosts rig efficiency and reduces handling time
- Enhances safety by minimizing manual tubular movement
- Compatible with HI ENERGY HICAT catwalks or third-party systems
- Custom-engineered to match your operational footprint
As an ISO 9001-certified company, we apply modern engineering practices including FEA simulation, precision fabrication, and high-quality component selection to ensure long-lasting, high-performance units that deliver — day in, day out.
