I have read a lot of discussion on this thread about which drilling contractors drill for gas and which for oil. As far as I know, rigs are hired to make holes in the ground, or sea bed as the case might be. Doubt that they are even told what the objective is. Now, it could very well be that certain drillers have a history of more work for companies that specialize in either gas or oil or work more in geographic areas favoring either gas or oil. However, any such trend could change in the future. Certainly there is no difference in rig specifications between gas and oil drilling.
