1. Power system
2. Hoisting system
3. Rotating system
4. Blowout prevention
5. Circulating system
6. Drill string
1) POWER SYSTEM
• Solar powered generators
and the two processes that
consume the most energy
are in hoisting system and
mud circulating system.
• Any problem with the power
system will stop the rig
completely, no matter what
the issue is.
2) HOISTING SYSTEM
• Draw-works
The main part of hoisting
system is a draw-works. Its
primary purpose is for providing
a way to raise and lower the
travelling block.
2) HOISTING SYSTEM
• Crown block
The stationary portion opposite
and above the traveling block
and has a set of pulleys or
sheaves through which the drill
line (wire rope) is threaded or
reeved.
2) HOISTING SYSTEM
• Travelling block
a set of pulleys, or sheaves,
that moves up and down in a
drilling rig's derrick, lifting and
lowering heavy objects into and
out of the wellbore
Drilling hook: The high-capacity
J-shaped equipment used to
hang various other equipment.
2) HOISTING SYSTEM
• Dead line anchor
used on drilling rigs to secure the
drilling line and measure the load
suspended from the top drive
Slip and cut: removing excess drill
line and cutting off the remaining
line at the drum end.
A deadline anchor's role in a slip-
and-cut drill line is to rotate the
wire drum during the procedure,
which helps to optimize safety.
2) HOISTING SYSTEM
• Storage reel
essential tool used to organize and
streamline hoisting and rotating
systems.
The reel stores drilling line and is
hydraulically powered to ease slip-
and-cut operations.
When the drill line drum is empty,
you can quickly and easily install a
new drum, reducing downtime.
3) ROTARY SYSTEM
• conventional Kelly system
The rotation process here takes
place from the rotary table, as it
draws electricity from the
generator and causes rotation.
The master bushing is attached to
it, and the kelly bushing is
attached to it, and the drill pipe is
attached to it, and thus the bit
rotates and the drilling begins.
3) ROTARY SYSTEM
• Top drive system
the hydraulic motor that is
suspended from the derrick, is
responsible for rotation of the drill
string during the drilling process.
NB: Drilling is done there stand
by stand, not joint by joint.
4) BLOW OUT PREVENTING
• blowout preventer (BOP)
The function of a blowout
preventer (BOP) is to prevent
the uncontrolled release of
high-pressure fluids like oil,
gas, or salt water from the
subsurface during drilling
operations.
4) BLOW OUT PREVENTING
• Annular type (BOP)
An annular blowout preventer (BOP)
is a big valve used to monitor,
manage, and seal gas and oil
wells(under low pressure). Above a
number of ram preventers, it is
usually found at the top of a BOP
stack.
4) BLOW OUT PREVENTING
• Ram type (BOP)
Pipe rams: Seal around the
drill pipe or casing (under high
pressure )
Blind rams: Seal the wellbore
when there is no pipe or
casing (during tripping or
loading )
Shearing blind rams: Cut the
drill pipe or casing and then
seal it (under very high
pressure )
5) MUD CIRCULATING SYSTEM
5) MUD CIRCULATING SYSTEM
• Rotary Bit
the cutting tool used at the bottom
of the drill string to break and crush
rock formations while drilling a well.
6) DRILL STRING
• Types of rotary bit
Roller Cone Bit: Has rotating
cones with teeth to crush and grind
rock.
