sondas

Acho que aqui, apesar das palavras escolhidas, está se referindo às sondas, não às colunas. Não resta dúvida que string normalmente é coluna, mas não me parece normal "já operamos até 13 colunas simultaneamente em todo o mundo".
Na verdade acho que quis dizer as duas coisas, o que não seria muito natural em português: sondas/colunas. Para mim, sondas já diz tudo.
PLATAFORMAS é uma opção, mas nem toda sonda é uma plataforma. Por isso prefiro o termo mais genérico, que é SONDA.

colunas de perfuração

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_string
A drill string on a drilling rig is a column, or** string**, of drill pipe that transmits drilling fluid (via the mud pumps) and torque (via the kelly drive or top drive) to the drill bit. The term is loosely applied as the assembled collection of the drill pipe, drill collars, tools and drill bit. The drill string is hollow so that drilling fluid can be pumped down through it and circulated back up the annulus (the void between the drill string and the casing/open hole).
