Case Study: Horizontal Well Drillers achieves zero-maintenance hazardous lighting and 60% energy savings with Dialight LED lighting

Horizontal Well Drillers cuts energy costs by 60% with Dialight

Horizontal Well Drillers, an oil and gas drilling company, was plagued by incessant maintenance and premature failures of its T8 fluorescent lighting on its rigs operating in the harsh, high-vibration Marcellus Shale region. Seeking a more reliable and efficient alternative, the company turned to Dialight and its SafeSite LED hazardous location lighting to eliminate the safety risks and costs associated with frequent fixture changeouts.

Dialight implemented a mix of its Class I Div 1 and Div 2 certified LED High Bay and Linear fixtures, which are built for harsh environments. This solution provided superior illumination while using half the electricity. The upgrade delivered immediate ROI, eliminating lighting maintenance and resulting in a 60 percent reduction in energy costs, which translated directly into substantial fuel savings for the diesel-powered rigs. Dialight's LEDs also significantly improved worksite safety with brighter light.
