Summary To remove 112 ft. of drill line from the fast line and replace 112 ft. of drill line on
the dead line thus moving the wear point from the pick up points to give even
wear through the rest of the drill line. This operation will take place after 3000
ton miles have been accumulated on the drill line after the last slip and cut.
Regular visual inspection of the drill line by the Toolpusher and Chief Mechanic
(Wirerope Examiner) will take precedence over the slip and cut programme.
Archived Yes
HSE Information
Usual inspection of the drill line must take precedence over the slip and
cut programme.

Responsibilities TOOLPUSHER
1. To check and confirm record of "ton-miles" since last cut and
total accumulated.
2. To designate a suitable break in operations to slip and cut drill
line within ton-mile specified limits.
(3000 ton-miles)
3. To regularly visually inspect drill line for signs of deterioration
which will take precedence over the slip and cut programme.
4. To send in a sample of drill line ( A minimum of 3mtrs is
required to fit into the test machine ) for independent inspection after
each slip and cut operation and to Review the Results from the
Independent Inspection in order to maintain the current Ton Mile
limit or reduce the Ton Mile limit based on the report findings.
DRILLER
1. Overall in charge of slipping and cutting procedures.
2. To operate drilling equipment in a safe and responsible manner.
3. To preplan for slipping and cutting and have all tools ready

ASSISTANT DRILLER
1. To calculate and maintain record of "ton miles" since last cut and
total accumulated.
2. To have tools and equipment ready to carry out slipping and
cutting procedure efficiently.
1. This operation will normally take place with a bit inside casing
shoe.
2. The drill string will be set in slips.
3. Perform trip drill by installing the FOSV - leave in "open"
position.
4. Line the trip tank up on the well and monitor during slip and cut
procedure.
5. Raise travelling block to hang off point. Their should be 28
wraps on the drum ( this will leave 12 wraps on the drum when the
PH85 is landed on the drill floor
6. Retract travelling block so that FOSV can be accessed with the
key.
7. Have Derrickman release hang off line from tied back position in
Derrick.
8. One man to go up in the manriding belt or the cherry picker to
attach the hang off line.(the ACS can be put into Manual Mode at this
point)
9. While the blocks are being hung off then the drawworks front
cover can be removed.
10. Clear personnel from the front of the drawworks and lower the
travelling block slowly until all the weight has been transferred to the
hang off line.
11. One man to count 14 wraps from the anchor side of the drum and
mark the line with the paint stick, meantime 2 other men can
start to remove the studs on the dead line anchor and ensure the
hydraulics are lined up to the drill line spooler.
12. The Driller can now select reverse gear ( select SCR 1 or 2 only
this will power up motor A only ), minimum throttle and in 'high/high',
spool the line off the drum, 3 men will be required to pull the line off the
drum and coil on the drill floor. Pull enough line off to get the marked
section to an accessible area on the drill floor and cut the drill line using
the hydraulic cutter.
NOTE: Place a rag over the hydraulic cutter to stop any small
particles flying into operators eyes. Goggles to be worn.
13. Once cut has been made then tie free end off to a suitable anchor
point.
14. Driller select reverse gear and pull the rest of the line off until
one wrap is left on the drum. Coil old line up neatly on the drill floor so
the Deck Crew can dispose of it in a skip.
15. Position drum so the anchor clamp is accessible and feed the
anchor out of the drum.

16. Remove the anchor from the drill line and dispose of the old
line.
17. Driller to isolate the drawworks by removing the air to the
clutches and tripping the
crown-o-matic.
18. One man can now safely go in beside the drum and feed the drill
line through and fit the anchor. NOTE: Steps 16
& 17 can be missed out and step 18 implemented.
19. Reverse the drawworks round until the hole for the drill line is
clearly visible at the front of the drum.
20. Insert the drill line into the drum, only about 2 ft.
21. Select forward gear and slowly turn the drum until the drum
anchor is visible. NOTE: If steps 18, 19 and
20 are implemented then there is no need to place a man in beside the
drum.
22. Pull the drill line through the drum and fit the anchor clamp
(ensure step 16 is carried out prior to working close to the drum). The
anchor clamp must be properly orientated in order for it to be located in
the anchor point without inducing a twist in the drill line. Ensure anchor
end of drill line and anchor clamp are cleaned thoroughly. Anchor
clamp should be torqued up to 175' lbs dry with suitable torque wrench
and install secondary bulldog grip.
23. Check anchor point inside drum for any damage or wear and
install anchor into drum, check that no more than 6" of drill line
protrude from anchor clamp or it may wear the inside of the drum.
24. When anchor has been fitted to drum and checked by the
Driller, de-isolate the drawworks and select forward gear. The drill line
must be spooled onto the drum as tightly as possible. To
ensure this, utilise the drill line tensioning device horizontally ( NOT
VERTICALLY ) on a tugger line through a snatch block on the V door
Samson post. As the Driller picks up slowly on the drawworks spooling
the drum allow the line to pull through the tensioning device. Bed the
line into the drum grooves with hammer. When coils on drill floor
transferred to the drum, remove tensioning device. Driller to take up
slack on drill line and inform the man at the drill line spool to allow drill
line to pay off from the spool.
25. The Driller can begin to spool the new line on the drawworks
drum, taking care not to raise the travelling block.
26. Slip 112 ft. of new line on to the drum. (14 wraps).
27. When drill line has been slipped through, clean check and install
the dead line clamp. Torque down bolts to 400' lbs with suitable torque
wrench. (The drill line should be marked with white paint at the dead
line clamp so that any slippage can be readily identified).
28. Driller to check torque of bolts and also check alignment of
clamp.
29. Re-install drawworks cover,(caution is to be taken to avoid any
damage to the brake calliper hoses) pick up blocks and remove
hang off lines and stow in Derrick securely.
30. Reset the COM and the Bentec ACS system as per Bentec
ACS-M-2 system manual
31. Pick up drillstring and lower blocks to below hang off point and
then pick up blocks for a full stand, this will put tension into the drill-
line wraps on the drum. Closely observe the wraps on the
Drawworks drum when test running blocks up and down.

NOTE: When
slipping and cutting the drill line this procedure should preferentially be
carried out when the bit is at the casing shoe, for well control purposes.
1. SAFETY INFORMATION
After the cut off section is unspooled from the drum (and laid down the
'V' door), it must now be flaked out (coiled or figure of eight) before
moving it into the disposal skip.
A competent person must carry out the pre-use inspection of the lifting
equipment and accessories. Ensure the colour code is valid and the SWL
of the equipment is adequate for the task.
2. TOOLS
3. PROCEDURE
WARNING:
Never use the crane to suspend the length of 'off-cut' drill line above
a waste skip, and manually coil it into the skip. Such practice may
endanger personnel if the drill line slips off the crane whip line.
