Patent number: 11939820Abstract: A system and method for transferring tubular elements may include a first structure having a first horizontal platform attached to the first structure on a bottom side and a monorail attached to the first structure on a top side, a second structure having a second horizontal platform attached to the second structure. The first structure and the second structure may be located proximate to each other, while the monorail can extend from the first structure to the second structure. The monorail can have a motion controlled assembly to move a tubular element or assembly of tubular elements.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Helmerich & Payne, Inc.Inventors: Jerry Ray Prescott, Joel Ferland, Matthew Wyatt MacDaniels, Christopher Alan Major, Patrick L.

Publication number: 20220268105Abstract: A boom system for utility service lines (such as cables, wires, hoses, pipes, etc.) for a drilling rig. The mobile boom system includes a skid with posts and one or more booms pivotally attached to each post. One or more articulating booms attached to a first post can support and carry the service lines connected to the sources and one or more articulating booms attached to the second post can support and carry the service lines connected to a drilling rig, or to a boom extending from a drilling rig. The mobile articulating boom system can include means for moving and selectively positioning the mobile articulating boom system at a drilling site. The mobile boom system can be adapted so that it has first, second, and third booms which can be placed in a closed position and fit within a perimeter defined by the skid for easier transportation to and from a drilling site.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 9, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Inventors: Joel FERLAND, Bernard COOK, DeWayne SPEER, Robert Lee STAUDER, Anthony James EVANS, Gary Don DAVIS, Patrick L.

Patent number: 7624831Abstract: A method and apparatus to move a modular drilling rig in formation wherein the drilling rig includes a plurality of self-propelled modules to facilitate the movement of the rig while all systems are intact and fully operational. The apparatus includes a plurality of wheel assemblies which are steerable to guide the modules during movement. The apparatus also includes a propulsion system for each of the modules to drive each of the modules during movement. A steering control and position feedback system is also provided for determining the relative position of each module with respect to the master module. This control and feedback system provides feedback to the steering control and feedback systems of other modules in order to move the modules in a formation.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2007Date of Patent: December 1, 2009Assignee: Helmerich & Payne, Inc.Inventors: Melvin Alan Orr, Mark Trevithick, Christopher Alan Major, Robert Lee Stauder
