OUR COMPANY

We Are Technology Experts First.
Everything Else Is Secondary.

We founded this company to engineer equipment that survives the environments where cheaper alternatives fail.

In an industry crowded with commodity parts and “Frankenstein” systems cobbled together from mismatched components, Rime stands as the Internal Technology Provider for the oilfield. We serve as the engineering backbone for rental shops, directional drillers, and operators who understand that the cost of a tool is irrelevant compared to the cost of a trip out of the hole.

Our focus has never been on building what is easy to sell. It has been on building what survives. That means validating beyond published ratings, eliminating weak links before they surface in the field, and engineering every component with the assumption that it will be pushed past its comfort zone. When failure is expensive and downtime compounds, reliability is not a feature. It is the baseline.

The Philosophy: Brutal Transparency

We believe the oilfield has a trust problem. Too many failures are blamed on the formation, and too many tools are sold on “theoretical” ratings.

Rime operates differently. We rely on Black Box Transparency. We don’t ask you to trust us; we give you the data to verify us. That is why every driver and pulser we build logs its own history, including temperature histograms, shock events, and vibration levels. We track the heat numbers of every metal component and bench-test every unit before it ships.

If a Rime tool fails, the data tells you why. But with over 1.2 million circulating hours and 1.25 billion pulses sent, we bet on the data proving something else: that we survived.

The “Widget” Advantage

We are proud to be the “last guy standing” for premium components. While others raced to the bottom on price, we doubled down on survivability.

  • We validated for 200°C because the hole is getting hotter.
  • We removed elastomers from our shock tools because rubber melts.
  • We engineered magnetic couplings because fluid invasion is the #1 killer of electronics.

This obsession with the “micro” details allowed us to capture 50% of the component market. We became the standard by which other systems are measured.

The Evolution: From Parts to Platform

For a decade, we fed the industry technology one component at a time. We upgraded your legacy fleets and kept your existing iron running longer. Now, we are closing the loop.

With the introduction of Locus, we are moving from being a component manufacturer to a platform provider. We are taking the industry’s most battle-tested components—our pulsers, drivers, and sensors—and integrating them into a bespoke, purpose-built MWD solution.

We aren’t guessing if the parts will work together. We engineered them to work together from day one.

Why We Exist

We exist to remove the variable of “tool failure” from your drilling equation. Whether you are a rental shop manager trying to reduce repair costs or an operator demanding “space flight reliability” on a critical well, our role is simple:

We build the gear that stays downhole.
