  • Patent number: 9995089
    Abstract: A system for connecting drill pipe to facilitate bi-rotational drilling and methods of bi-rotational drilling using the system are described. The system includes a rotatable sleeve disposed on the end of one pipe joint and a guide on the other pipe joint in which both sleeve and guide have mating threads to pull the joint together and pipe end structures to prevent rotation when the joints are pulled together.
