We conduct oil, gas and geothermal land drilling operations in the U.S. Lower 48 states, Alaska, Canada, South and Central America, the Middle East, the Far East, and Africa. We are also one of the largest land well-servicing and workover contractors in the United States and Canada. We own approximately 750 land workover and well-servicing rigs in the United States, primarily in the southwestern and western United States, and approximately 200 land workover and well-servicing rigs in Canada. Nabors is a leading provider of offshore platform workover and drilling rigs, and owns 45 platform, 16 jack-up and three barge rigs in the Gulf of Mexico and international markets. These rigs provide well-servicing, workover and drilling services. We also have a 50% ownership interest in a joint venture in Saudi Arabia, which owns 17 rigs. To further supplement and complement our primary business, we offer a wide range of ancillary well-site services, including engineering, transportation, construction, maintenance, well logging, directional drilling, rig instrumentation, data collection and other support services in selected domestic and international markets. Our land transportation and hauling fleet includes approximately 240 rig and oilfield equipment hauling tractor-trailers and a number of cranes, loaders and light-duty vehicles. We maintain approximately 300 fluid hauling trucks, approximately 800 fluid storage tanks, ten salt water disposal wells and other auxiliary equipment used in drilling, workover and well-servicing operations in the United States. In addition, we time charter a fleet of 31 marine transportation and supply vessels, which provide transportation of drilling materials, supplies and crews for offshore operations primarily in the Gulf of Mexico. We manufacture and lease or sell top drives for a broad range of drilling applications, directional drilling systems, rig instrumentation and data collection equipment, and rig reporting software. We have also made selective investments in oil and gas exploration, development and production activities, most recently with El Paso Corporation. The majority of our business is conducted through our various Contract Drilling operating segments, which include our drilling, workover and well-servicing operations, on land and offshore. Our operating segments engaged in marine transportation and supply services, drilling technology and top drive manufacturing, directional drilling, rig instrumentation and software, and construction and logistics operations are aggregated in a category labeled Other Operating Segments for segment reporting purposes.
