Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for running a drilling rig or a workover rig including a plurality of stands into a wellbore. In step 1, position information of the stands in a finger board area may be recorded with a control system. In step 2, the stands may be placed. In step 3, a position of a traveling block may be adjusted so as to move a power elevator to a second waiting position of a racking platform. In step 4, the stands may be pushed with the pipe racking device. In step 5, the second stand may be moved and stabbed in the first stand with an iron floor man. In step 6, a joint between the first stand and the second stand may be made up. In step 7, the traveling block may be moved downward. In step 8, the traveling block may be moved upward.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a drilling machine. The drilling machine may include a base, a mast arranged on the base, an iron roughneck, a drill floor mechanical arm, a top drive arranged on the mast, a pipe racker on a finger board, a power finger board, a power catwalk arranged on the ground, and an elevator arranged on the top drive. The drill machine and a corresponding tripping out and tripping in method may be used to vertically transport a stand between a well center and a region of at least one pipe setback efficiently, which may improve the efficiency of tripping out and tripping in, and reduce the risk of accidents in the well. In addition, the present disclosure provides a corresponding method for offline connecting and disconnecting stands during a drilling operation, which may reduce a preparation time during the drilling, improve the drilling efficiency, and reduce the cost of oilfield development.

Abstract: A pipe racking system includes a diving board having a guide rail, a trolley, a manipulator, and a gripper. The trolley has two sides being mounted to the diving board via the guide rail and being driven by a rack and pinion member. The gripper is connected to an end of the manipulator away from the trolley. The trolley includes two pairs of combined bearings and two pairs of eccentric wheels. The gripper is configured to grip a tubular subject and include two opposing flippers, two first electric putters, and two springs. The two first electric putters is configured to control the two flippers. One end of each spring of the two springs is connected to a flipper of the two flippers and the other end of the each spring is connected to a push rod of a first electric putter of the two first electric putters.

Abstract: A drilling rig includes a base section, a first section, a second section, a third section and a fourth section. For the base section upper region, a fixed pulley block and a guide pulley are installed. Except for the fourth section-crown block section, each section lower region is installed with a lifting lug for a movable pulley block installation for substantially vertical lifting. The crown block section is installed substantially vertical; the subsequent section is located substantially horizontal with the section front pillar upper region connecting to the previous section front pillar lower region. The previous section is substantially vertical lifted to draw the next section skidding into the base section and lifting substantially vertical with the previous section pillar lower region connected to the next section pillar upper region.

Abstract: A method for performing shale gas operation is disclosed. The method may include drilling a first well, performing a fracturing operation in the well, recovering shale gas from the first well, supplying at least part of the shale gas recovered from the well to an electrical generator, generating electricity using the generator, and transferring the generated electricity to drilling equipment used to drill a second well.
