[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 955566, member: 18945"] Cal, there were several Parker rigs still running around Elk City when I was up there, and they were all big--and all blue & white--Parker's colors. Rig114 had already been donated and moved to the Anadarko Oil & gas museum by the time I was working up there, and it's pretty massive itself--about 170' derrick if I remember right. It was still a running rig when they donated it, but it just wasn't state of the art enough by that time. It worked all over the Anadarko, so it may have been the one you are familiar with. It's still there, right on Rt 66, almost downtown Elk City. Parker has always meant big iron and they own the most powerful land rig in the world and hold the depth record with it--having drilled the Sakhalin-1 well on an island off Russia's coast. Right around 40,000' deep I think. [/QUOTE]
