API Spec 8C: This Standard provides requirements for the design, manufacture
and testing of hoisting equipment suitable for use in drilling and production
operations.
Major components of this system includes:
Mast
Traveling Block
Drilling Hook
Crown Block
Drawworks
Drilling Line

Main supporting components of drilling rig.

Designed and manufactured as per users' requirements and API Spec 4F


2013 Specification for Drilling and Well Servicing Structures.

Mast is a structural tower comprised of one or more sections assembled in a


horizontal position near the ground and then raised to the operating position
using draw-works.

Mast generally has six parts:


A-Frame
Lower Section
Middle Section
Upper Section
Crown Section
Monkey Board.
Types of Mast:
Cantilever
Telescopic
Tower

Cantilever
The cantilever mast , also called k-type mast, is a robust construction that does not need to be supported
by guylines.
Assembled on the ground, the mast is raised as a single unit using the power of the draw-works or using
the hydraulic raising cylinders.
Its stability and fast installation makes the cantilever type mast the preferred choice for our land drilling rigs,
including fast moving rigs.
Telescopic
Comprises of several sections that can be extended and retracted.
During rig up, each section is extended one by one by means of hydraulic cylinders and secured with
guylines.
Due to its compact design, the telescope mast is typically used on a truck-mounted drilling rig, or well-
servicing rig, mounted onto the carrier.

Tower
The tower type mast or derrick is a very robust construction that provides ample room for the derrickman.
Piece-by-piece installation is inconvenient and dangerous, as it involves assembly operations high above
the ground.
This is why the derrick nowadays is only used on offshore drilling platforms.

A large winch that spools off the drilling line and thus
raises and lowers the drill stem and bit.
It is also used to raise and lower casings, tubing and
other well related tubulars and equipment.
It also raises and lowers the mast & sub base during
rig-up & rig down operations.
It consists of a large spool-shaped revolving drum
along which wire rope, called drilling line is wrapped in
a particular fashion.

Special designed wire rope for heavy lifting.

Available in 7/8 to 2 (22 to 51 mm) diameter.

Designed in accordance to API Spec 9A,


Specification for Wire Rope

There are three main parts of drilling line:


Core
Strand (including the center of the strand)
Wires
619 drilling line is the most common used in
the industry. 619 is a wire rope with 6 strands
and each strand has 19 wires.

The size of the drilling line must be compatible


to the size of the sheaves of crown block and
traveling block as well as the groove size of
drawworks drum.
During manufacturing, the wire rope is twisted in spiral fashion to form the wire rope. This
spiral pattern is called Lay.

The kind of lay depends upon:


The direction of twist of strands
The direction of twist of wire rope

The wireropes are either:


Regular Lay
Lang Lay
Right
Left
In regular lay the wire rope is spiralled in a
direction opposite to the direction of spiral of
the strands.
In lang lay the wire rope is spiralled in the
same direction in which the strands are
spiralled.
In right lay the wires in east strand of rope is
twisted in right, or clockwise, spiral around the
core.
In left lay the wires in east strand of rope is
twisted in left, or anti-clockwise, spiral around
the core.
Types of wire rope steel:
Improved plow steel (IPS)
Extra improved plow steel (EIP)
Extra extra improved plow steel (EEIP)

EIP is 15% stronger than IPS.

EEIP is 10% stronger than EIP.

There are three types of core used in manufacturing wire rope:


Fibre core: where natural fibre like sisal obtained from agave plant or artificial fibre like polypropylene is
used as core.
Independent wire rope cope (IWRC): where a separate and independent wire rope is used as a core.
Strand core: where several wires make a strand and this strand is used as a core.
Wire rope strand design:
Single layer
Filler wire
Seale
Warrington
Combination

Single layer:
one wire in middle with one layer of wire laid around it.
Example: 1-6 pattern
Filler wire:
two layers of wire of same size laid around one center wire.
The inner layer has half the number of wires as in outer layer.
Also small wires are laid in the valleys.
Example: 1-6-6f-12 pattern (f stands for filler wire)
Seale:
two layers of wire laid around one center wire.
The wire of inner layer are of smaller diameter compared to outer.
Each layer has same number of wires.
The wires in outer layer rest in the valleys formed by inner layer.
Example: 1-9-9 pattern
Warrington
Similar to seale pattern
Two layers of wire laid around center wire.
Wires in inner layer are of same diameter.
Wires of outer layer have two different diameter.
The wire in outer layer having larger diameter rest in the valleys formed
by inner layer.
The wire in outer layer having smaller diameter rest on the top of inner
layer.
Example: 1-6-(6+6) pattern
Combination
Combination of two or more patterns
Example: 1-8-8-(8+8)-16 pattern (a combination of seale and
warrington)

The main function of mud tanks (or mud pits) are:
To store enough drilling fluid
To collect mud returns from the well
To supply drilling fluid to the mud pumps
To provide means for processing the drilling fluid.

Major components include:


Agitators
mud guns
transfer lines
mixing lines
suction lines
Valves
Hoppers
Superchargers are centrifugal pumps used to suck mud from the suction tank and deliver
it to mud pumps.
Super chargers are alone capable of lifting the mud from ground level to swivel.
They cannot provide optimum hydraulics required for normal drilling operation.
It feeds circulating high-pressure drilling fluid to well bottom during work to flush the well
bottom crush rocks, cool and lubricate bits and carry rock debris to the surface.
Types:

Designed in conformity with API spec 7K-2010 Specification for drilling and well servicing
equipment.

Major components:
Power End
Fluid End
The power end consists of pinion shaft, crank connecting rod and cross sliding block
mechanism, supplies power to the fluid end.
The hydraulic cylinder of the fluid end and piston carries out reciprocating motion in liner
by means of the power from the power end to change the volume of the hydraulic cylinder
cavity, jointly acts with suction valve and discharge valve to suck and compress the low-
pressure mud through the suction valve and then discharge high-pressure mud through
the discharge valve.

Technical Parameters of mud pumps:
It is a set of valves which control the distribution of mud supplied by mud pumps to the
high pressure lines.
High pressure lines or solid lines are steel lines of high pressure rating capable of
transferring fluid through them at high pressure ranging from 5000 psi to 20000 psi.
Used for connecting mud pumps to standpipe.
Set of valves used to provide path for the drilling mud
discharged from mud pump to stand pipe.
The valves have similar pressure rating as that of the
stand pipe and high pressure lines.
These are high pressure rubber hoses connecting the stand pipe with the stand pipe
manifold.
The pressure rating of vibrator hose are equal to or grater than the pressure rating of the
stand pipe in use.
The main function of mud tanks (or mud pits) are:
To store enough drilling fluid
To collect mud returns from the well
To supply drilling fluid to the mud pumps
To provide means for processing the drilling fluid.

Major components include:


Agitators
mud guns
transfer lines
mixing lines
suction lines
Valves
Hoppers
Rotary Hose is a high pressure rubber hose connecting the standpipe to the goose neck
of TDS of Swivel.
These hoses are flexible in nature.
Have hammer union connection on both ends.
Allows passage of drilling fluid.
Flow line or the return line are large diameter metallic pipe connected to the riser of bell
nipple.
The fluid coming from well passes through the flow line to the possum belly.
Through possum the fluids are distributed to shale shakers/
A Possum belly, on a drilling rig, is a metal container at the head of the shale shaker that
receives the flow of drilling fluid and is directly connected to and at the end of the flow
line. A possum belly may also be referred to as a distribution box or flowline trap.
The purpose of the possum belly is to slow the flow of the drilling fluid (after it has gained
momentum from coming down through the flow line) so that it does not shoot off of the
shale shakers.
