Folks with Rig Knowledge
I am a photographer. I am adding these images to my inventory of stock images for sale but don't know the terminology of what I'm looking at. For stock images you need to add "tags" so they show up in searches. For instance in the control room shot (if that's what they call it) what is the the big round gauge called? If you see anything else, feel free to comment. Thanks.

Is the Iron Roughneck the motor or whole setup? Do they call that floor area anything special? What stage does it look like they are at? That looks like small pipe for drilling going thru the floor. Thanks.

The round gauge is called the weight indicator. It shows the weight on bit, pick up/slack off, hook load etc. The second picture is of the top drive. The third picture is from the steps going to the pits and shows the "back yard" with the mud pumps.
