Well Happy, I’ve worked on greenfield sites in the construction industry in the west of Scotland for over 50 years, and believe me, the flood and rainy season is 365 days a year, every year! Things turn into a quagmire, but the rain goes off now and then, the wind blows and dries things up a bit, and on you go again. And we don’t have natures dryer beating down at 24 degrees to help disperse the precipitation.
As long as the pad is not in a hollow, and they have a crane and a good loadall and driver, they’ll be fine if they get the Rig up and the necessary repairs done in the next couple of weeks!
Looks like they have stoned the road and the site as well, which will help.
Biggest issue will be downtime when the thunder and lightning is in progress, but that is not constant, and manageable!
