• Worldwide O&G Experience: MegaDeck HD is designed and manufactured by the portable mat specialist and market leader. SSG's products are used worldwide - from the far reaches of the Amazonian jungles to the frozen tundra of Alaska. The MegaDeck HD mats are being used globally as a reliable 24-7 access surface offering the competitive edge to O&G exploration and drilling programs. SSG works as a team to provide the best mat product for the specific site, customer support and industry knowledge to ensure the project's success, ultimately reducing the costs of drilling programs. Regardless of the site and soil conditions, MegaDeck HD has a proven history of performing in temperatures ranging from 120°F to negative 30°F while still retaining its performance characteristics.
• Experienced Matting Team: SSG's key personnel were instrumental in developing the initial composite mat utilized worldwide in the Oil & Gas industry since 1996 with research and development, then on to production and ultimately, field application. Through 18+ years of global experience and knowledge in applying composite matting in various climates, soils, terrain, and sensitive environments, our team has become the world's foremost authority on composite rig matting within the O&G industry. We are experts in handling complex Oil & Gas projects in difficult and remote locations. For significant projects we will supervise and train onsite personnel on how to install the MegaDeck HD matting system.
• Optimal Size for Shipping and Transport: MegaDeck HD mats have an overall size of 14' x 7.5' x 4" / 4.27m x 2.29m x 10.2cm thick per mat. SSG designed the product to this size so it can be containerized and loaded into standard ISO containers for shipping. MegaDeck HD does not require any specialized palletizing or equipment to load into the container; they simply fit in the laying position. This is the safest and cheapest method of transport.
• Length is exactly 2x the width (unlike others) allowing for install flexibility: The length of each MegaDeck HD mat is specifically designed to be twice its width. This allows for greater versatility during assembly and provides increased flexibility in terms of how the mats can be configured. Other products are limited in this regard due to their irregular dimensions.
• Overlapping Connection Technology: The MegaDeck HD mats overlap and interlock to create a solid safe surface suitable for construction and roadway locations, which save many set up days compared to other methods. The overlapping interlocking feature of the MegaDeck HD matting creates a solid surface where the assembly of the entire site acts as one large mat. This key interlocking feature which is paramount to the performance of the system cannot be accomplished by the competitors with their odd sized products. This minimizes the required pre-project site disturbance and the overlapping technology supports weights and heavy traffic with minimal deflection across the seams of adjoining mats, thus reducing ground pressure and soil compaction during the project. Therefore, no post-project site reclamation is required.
• RFID Tracking: Each MegaDeck HD mat has an imbedded RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Device) tag that has excellent reading results in harsh environments up to 40'. The tags can be used for inventory control and locating of mats on the jobsite. This feature is offered at no cost to the customer. It's just another example of a value added benefit of MegaDeck HD that the competition can not match.
