Cathead (CH) : Cathead System Is Used To Make Up and Break Out Drill Pipe

Cathead (CH)
Cathead system is used to make up and break out drill pipe
Mud Bucket (MB)

Mud buckets are used for drill pipe and casing brake out applications. It seals the
connection and prevents any spilling of mud or oil.
Torque Master (TM)
The TorqueMaste is a machine made for making up and breaking out drill pipe, drill
collars and casing
Turn Table / Rotary Table

A rotary table is a mechanical device on a drilling rig that provides rotational force to
the drill string to facilitate the process of drilling a borehole
Hydraulic Roughneck (HRN)
Designed to spin in/make up and break out/spin out drill pipe, crossover subs and other
bottom hole assemblies
Slips and Power Slips (PS)

Slips is a device used to grip and hold the upper part of a drill string to the drill floor on
an oil rig. Powel Slips could be spring or Air powered and remotely operated.
Mouse Hole (MH)
The mouse hole is the storage area on a drilling rig where the next joint of drilling pipe
is held until needed
Drawwork
A draw-works is the primary hoisting machinery that is a component of a rotary drilling rig. Its
main function is to provide a means of raising and lowering the traveling blocks. The wire-rope
drilling line winds on the drawworks drum and extends to the crown block and traveling blocks,
allowing the drill string to be moved up and down as the drum turns.
Deadline Anchor (DLA)
Deadline anchor is used to tie down the drill line and provides weight measurements.
The Dead line anchor also provides connection to the Drill Line Drum and designed to
rotate during a slip-and-cut procedure (changing of drill line).
Drill Line Drum

Drill Line Drum is used for drill line storage.
Crown Block
A crown block is a pulley situated at the top of an oil rig or derrick. Drilling line often
runes over fast sheave as it leaves or enters side by side sheaves on the Crown Block.
Sometimes dead line sheave is used. Dead line runes over Dead Line Sheave and down
to the dead line anchor
Traweling Block
Traveling block is a companion block to the Crown block that can move freely up and
down between the crown block and the rig floor. Together they create block and tackle
system.
Kelly and Top Drive
Kelly is the rotating link between the rotary table and the drill string. It is a square or
hexagonal shaped tubing that is inserted through and is an integral part of the rotary
table that moves freely vertically while the rotary table turns it. When Kelly is used
rotational force to the drill string is provided by Rotary Table.
Top Drive is basically a combination of Kelly and Rotary Table. It is powered by a

separate motor and transmits rotation to the drill string directly without need for a
rotary table.
Bridge Crane (BRC)
Bridge crane is also called Overhead crane. It consists of parallel runways with a
traveling bridge between them.
MH Bridge crane is used on derrick as a pipe handling equipment and mounted on
derrick above fingerboard level. It is designed to lift the stand between the
fingerboards, mousehole and well centre and used in a combination with equipment
called Lower Guiding Arm.
Guiding Arm (LGA)
Used for pipe handling. It is usually synchronized with Bridge Crane. Both Bridge
crane and LGA can be erased with 2-arm system or Vertical Pipe Racking System
(VPR)
Fingerboard
The Fingerboard is a collection of steel fingers usually half way up the drilling Derrick.
It is used as a rack in which to store drill pipe and collar vertically during drilling
operations. Different fingerboard is often used for casing.
Another type that is called Belly Board (BB) is sometimes used for storing of heavy
weight- and normal weight 6 5/8” drill pipes.
Eagle Light (ELT)

Eagle light performes horizontal to vertical operations. Mainly used to receive tubes
from Tubular Feeding Maskin.
Access Baske (AB)
The access basket is designed for safe access when performing maintenance and/or
working tasks in places that are hard to reach. The basket can be installed in the
derrick, moonpool area or other areas.
Tubular Feeding Maskin (TFM)
Tubular Feeding masking is design to deliver pipes from pipe dekk to drill floor.
Pipedeck Pipehandler (PDPH)

The Pipe Deck crane handles tubulars on the pipe deck.
