Reliable Light Towers for Night Operations in the Oilfield

Why Light Towers Are Essential for Oil & Gas Sites

Oilfield operations often continue around the clock, especially during drilling and completions. Portable light towers ensure visibility for crews working in remote areas, improving safety, security, and productivity during night shifts or low-light conditions.

Types of Light Towers

  • Diesel Light Towers: Commonly used and fuel-efficient with extended runtime.
  • LED Light Towers: Energy-efficient and brighter output with lower maintenance.
  • Solar Hybrid Units: Eco-friendly with backup generators, ideal for ESG-focused operators.
