In October 2021 the "SkhidGZK" ordered from another company a different Epiroc Boomer S1D rig for 15,87 million UAH, or 521 thousand euros. That was 18% more expensive, but it had different characteristics. In particular, it was intended for drilling holes with a diameter of 43–76 mm with a drilling area of 33 sq. m and had a rod length of 2,1–3,4 m. Moreover, the company did not complete the delivery, so the contract was terminated.

Kyiv-based "Epiroc Ukraine" is owned by the Swedish company Epiroc Rock Drills AB. In 2017–2020 years and since mid-2026 it has received government contracts totaling 240,62 million UAH.
