Thank You for coming back to read another monthly newsletter with us here at Rig Lynx, we love to share how we are growing!
One of the things we focus on here with Rig Lynx is positive news for the industry, as much positivity as we can. Just as of recent we published a 55 unit increase for the international rig count; this is the largest increase we have seen since June of 2020. This means more contracts are being issued, more work is starting up and things are starting to move again post pandemic.
The mobile application as you are aware has received a substantial upgrade in regard to the messaging feature. It took us months to prepare and rollout this update, please go and enjoy it with your friends and colleagues, no need for Facebook messenger, WhatsApp, LinkedIn etc, all the tools are here now. Use them as you see fit, also leave us some feedback, it would be appreciated.
Just as a reminder, we will be giving the newsfeed and application a user interface “facelift” with new colors, engagement tools on the newsfeed and much more! Super excited to see the application evolving and our members enjoying it on a daily basis.
Make sure to subscribe to our website notifications, as we publish new articles and material you will get a notification straight to your PC or mobile device so you can catch them as they are fresh off the press.
Thanks to you all for visiting our website and using the application each day and from all of us here, have a great June and thank you for being part of our family!
