Drilling derricks and Rig Masts consist of a steel framework with a square or rectangular cross-section. Their purpose is to support the hoisting equipment and rack the tubulars while tripping pipe. The number of joints in a stand (single-double-triple) that the rig can pull is dependent on the height of the derrick. .
The Drawworks is one of the most important components of the drilling rig (types of drilling rigs). The unit supplies the hoisting power, the. .
The Crown Blockas a drilling rig component is a fixed set of pulleys (called sheaves) located at the top of the derrick or mast, where the drilling line is threaded. The companion blocks to these pulleys are the traveling blocks. By using two sets of blocks in this fashion,. .
The Traveling Blockis a set of sheaves (pulleys) that move up and down in the derrick. The drilling line is threaded (reeved) over the. .
Attached to the bottom of the traveling blocks, the hook is required to hang the swivel and rig kelly(for drilling) and the elevator bales (for tripping pipe and casing). On a conventional rotary rig (one without a top drive), three important devices fit inside the rotary table: (1) the master bushing, (2) the kelly (or drive) bushing, and (3) the slips. The rig uses the master bushing and the kelly bushing during drill-ing.
[pdf] A wear bushing, or sleeve, is installed in the casing head housing, or indeed in any compact or casing head spool, to protect the hanger landing preparations from damage while the drill string, tools, or other tubulars are run through, or rotated in, the wellhead. .
In some systems, the sleeve is held in place by a set of tie-down bolts contained either in the top flange of the housing or in a separate hold-down flange installed between the housing.
[pdf] Before starting casing, the drilling supervisor should hold a pre-job safety meeting and confirm the following with the crew: 1. Remove unnecessary tools. 2. Good Housekeeping before the job 3. Rig up Casing handling equipment: Using appropriate hand. .
A circulation sub, fitting the casing thread, equipped with a WECO connection, shall be readily available on the rig floor at all times during casing running.
