3. ZJ70DBS rig structure features

3.1 Rig general structure

The whole rig contains 5 zones of drilling floor area, power area, pump area, solid control area and
oil supply area etc. After the rig is assembled, it occupies about 90m75m area (not including tool house
and living camp etc.)
For the rig layout refer to attached drawing 1 Elevation and attached drawing 2 Plan. For rig
transmission principle, refer to attached drawing 3 transmission system. For rig layout foundation see
attached drawing 4 Foundation.
In drilling floor area, there are mast, substructure, crown block, traveling block, hook, drawworks,
rotary table drive device, rotary table, driller s cabin, dog house and various implements necessary for
drilling operation etc on the drilling floor. The mast upper part includes the crown block.

z Weight indicator works normally.

7.1.2 Substructure Lowering

When lowering the substructure, firstly move the substructure to diverge from the center gravity
position by the buffer cylinder. Drawworks should reversely drag and the substructure should be
lowered by its self-weight. Precautions should be taken while lowering the substructure:

30
 OPERATION MANUAL OF ZJ70DBS DRILLING RIG

Dismantle all components affecting lowering of the substructure such as the ramp, slide, ladders and
tool elevator etc.
Control the lowering speed as slowly and evenly as possible. Prevent sudden accelerating and
sudden stop.

7.1.3 Mast lowering

Before mast lowering, hang the balance-blocks properly, and dismantle casing stabbing board and
structural components and accessories which affect the mast lowering, then operate the bumper cylinder
to push the mast away from its center of gravity, and then lower it slowly by its weight while drawworks
reversely dragging. Precautions should be taken while lowering the mast:
Control the lowering speed as slowly and smoothly as possible. Sudden accelerating or brake is
strongly forbidden.

7.2 Dismantling
7.2.1 The principle for dismantling is: dismantle firstly those installed last, dismantle last those
installed first.
7.2.2 Dismantle the rig into components then pack them in unit. Larger components like mast and
substructure should be disassembled into smaller units in terms of the size of carrying vehicles,
drawworks, diesel generator set and VFD house etc. can be transported as a module.
7.2.3 Pack fasteners separately in units of components, and use labels to identify them. High
strength bolts and nuts for mast, crown block, deadline stabilizer and universal shaft should be packed
separately after disassembly to avoid confusing with others. Anti-rust treatment and packing should be
processed to pins and safety pins, also must be packed separately as per components they belong to; rust,
break and confusion must be avoided.
7.2.4 Dismantle air, fluid, water pipelines only after pressure released. Discharge fluid and water in
pipelines and use compressed air to dry them.
7.2.5 The connector of air, oil and water pipelines should be sealed to avoid impurities going inside
and marked at the two ends with the same number.
7.2.6 The pins, bolts and nuts for mast and substructure (including the high strength bolts and nuts
for universal shaft) should be greased and packed, put into a proper position. The high strength bolts,
nuts for universal shaft should be located at connection flanges and packed together with the universal
shaft.
7.2.7 The hose for air system should be prevented from oil and the outside screw(male) thread should
be bound up to avoid damage and you shall keep inner pipe clean.
7.2.8 For long distance transportation or long time storage, anti-rain, anti-damp and anti-rust
treatments are necessary.

7.3 Transportation
When rig is transported, make a transportation schedule according to the components dimensions
and weights Scheme a transporting load table according to the list of main components together with the
vehicles capacity. The transporting units of mast and substructure shall be put together in groups; the
other parts shall be transported together with their components
