In this study, the fracture of piston for rock drill produced from case hardening steel is investigated. In order to study the causes of the fracture, specimens prepared from the damaged pistons were subject.
[pdf] Jackup rigs are so named because they are self-elevating with three, four, six and even eight movable legs that can be extended (“jacked”) above or below the hull. Jackups are towed or moved under self propulsion to the site with the hull lowered to the water level, and the legs extended above the hull. The hull is actually a water-tight barge that floats on the water's surface. When the rig reaches the work site, the crew jacks the legs downward through the water and int.
[pdf] Mobile offshore Drilling Units (MODU) This type of rig is commonly used in connection with oil and/or natural gas drilling. There are more jackup rigs in the worldwide offshore rig fleet than other type of mobile offshore drilling rig. Other types of offshore rigs include semi-submersibles (which float on pontoon-like structures) and drillships, which are ship-shaped vessels with rigs mounted in t. OverviewA jackup rig or a self-elevating unit is a type of mobile platform that consists of a buoyant fitted with a number of movable legs, capable of raising its hull over the surface of the sea.
