Battery packs are presented having structural members for improving thermal management of battery cells therein. In some embodiments, the battery packs include a first end-member positioned opposite a second end-member and parallel thereto. The battery packs also include a first side beam positioned opposite a second side beam and parallel thereto. The first side beam and the second side beam extend longitudinally between the first end-member and the second end-member. A longitudinal member is disposed between the first side beam and the second side beam and defines a plurality of longitudinal rows. The battery packs may additionally include a lateral member disposed between first end-member and the second end-member to partition the plurality of longitudinal rows into an array of battery cell compartments. A battery cell is disposed within at least one battery cell compartment.

A system for powering 100% of an oil and gas workover rig's operations with a battery energy storage system (“BESS”). The system consists of three major interconnected components: a BESS, a power conversion system (“PCS”), and a workover rig. The power system is specifically designed for a retrofitted electro-mechanical workover rig (with either an alternating current or direct current electric drive) which is compatible with the BESS. Unlike other emerging industrial applications, a battery cannot be mounted on the workover rig due to logistical and size constraints, thus requiring a novel modular and mobile system design.
