Abstract: A tubular measurement system for in service cleaning, inspecting, and measuring of a tubular, comprising: a first and second housing portion connected using hinges operable by hydraulic actuators. At least one high pressure water jet unit and a marine growth plough is disposed on a cleaning end of the housing. At least one enclosable camera block containing at least one digital camera is disposed on an inspection end of the housing. A first set of roller assemblies is disposed on the cleaning end and a second set of roller assemblies is disposed on the inspection end. A communication conduit is used to transfer signals from the digital cameras to a remote location. A hydraulic conduit and a high pressure water conduit provide hydraulic fluid and high pressure water from the remote location. A tether is used to provide a variable tension from the remote location to the housing.

Abstract: A method for in-situ cleaning and inspecting of a tubular, comprising: deploying a closable housing to a tubular, hydraulically opening the closable housing and then hydraulically closing the closable housing around the tubular. Marine growth is removed from the tubular using a marine growth plough and high pressure water from at least one high pressure water jet unit, disposed a cleaning end of the closable housing. The cleaned tubular is inspected using at least one enclosable camera block containing at least one digital camera disposed on an inspection end of the closable housing. Signals from the cameras are communicated to a remote location. Hydraulic fluid and high pressure water are provided from the remote location to the closable housing. A tether is used to roll the closable housing along the tubular for continuous in-situ cleaning and inspection of the tubular without interrupting use of the tubular.

Abstract: Methods and systems for pressing a stud using a mobile stud chain press are provided. The method can include retrieving a portion of a chain while in an operation area, and placing at least a portion of a stud of a link of the chain between two heads secured to a mobile chain stud press. At least one of the heads can be movable from a first position to a second position. The movable head can be moved from a first position to a second position to compress the stud laterally.

Abstract: A mobile chain stud press comprising body having a concave opening configured to receive at least a portion of a link having a loose stud; a first head connected with the body adjacent a first end of the body; a second head connected with the body adjacent a second end of the body, wherein one of the heads is movably connected with the body and the other is statically connected with the body; and a drive mechanism connected with the movable head.
