CNPC has taken delivery of an automated unconventional gas rig from Germany that has a maximum depth of 6,000 meters and requires only four personnel. This is one of many orders.

Why would a country with low labor cost order automated equipment?

Bull Sh-t! If that were true I would order 2000 and put every drilling contractor in the United States out of business. I worked on the rigs for 17 years.
