Abstract: Fiber optic bundles include helically stranded subunit cables. The assemblies have small cross sections and low bend radii while maintaining acceptable attenuation losses. Binders can be omitted to improve ease of processing and installation. Helically stranding of the subunit cables allows ease of access to the individual cables during installation.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, systems and devices for handling drill pipe. One example embodiment includes a method for handling a drill pipe. The method includes moving the drill pipe by a crane having a grapple, wherein the crane is located on a skid. Further, the method includes receiving the drill pipe within a carriage affixed to the skid, wherein the carriage comprises vises and spinners. Finally, the method includes torquing and spinning the drill pipe within the carriage, whereby the method provides for rapid mating and unmating of the drill pipe for either laying in the ground or possibly into a vehicle for removal to a different location, respectively.
