Running Casing pipe using Nubbins on Predator Drilling Rig

pretty nice gear. i like the way they remove the thread protector by using a stablizer

[@kennypeshlakai2416]

Funny that with all this technology, you still just needed a long nail and a crescent wrench to attach a stabilizer to the tool joint of a casing string . We had a box of nails on my tri-plex pumps to take care of a pop off. You rarely know why it pressured up at that time.Pump pressure ? liner needed to be replaced? Flow line was plugged up? The intake of the pit(suction) end was plugged? And those are surface incidents. I could go on with downhole problems as well but we would be here all night

[@SuperDave21]

This is not the way I used to run casing in the 80's.... sure it's way safer, but we never had accidents running casing, but good Lord it's slow! Why do they need two men on the floor to run it this way? It's easily a one man job! No pulling slips, no wedding band clamps etc... Geesh... roughnecks sure got it easy these days!

[@anotherrandomtexan25]

SuperDave21 that's the way we do still on my old school fuckin rig (only a double tho) but it's like looking at some sort of dark magic since I've never been on something so new

[@s0c7]

SuperDave21 - Totally agree. Back in the late 70's/early 80's we'd have had 3+ strings down in the time it took for them to get one down as shown in this video. I'm surprised at how slow it is, given the cost-per-hr for a rig. Tripping [drill pipe + collars] or running casing, etc. was WAY faster than this "modern" vid. Safer in this one? Maybe, but in my 5 yrs I never saw an accident caused by tripping pipe. Other causes, yes! But not running pipe into the hole. Even when we used chains!

[@joseguerrero1306]

Woooww!!! Really smooth operation roughnecks 💪 Smart Set up a tool on topdrive to torque and unscrew the casing lifter. Avoiding all hazards with equipment and tongs. I imagine only the backup tongs at first to run a few... Great job, I really miss all that action offshore after 25 years

[@franciscowashington2155]

Incrível muito bem👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@omnipotentdwarf571]

On surface casing we used an endless rope to rotate casing screwing it together.

[@omnipotentdwarf571]

Those are called centrilizers, not nubbins. When I roughnecked we threw most of those in the reserve pit.

[@tgenerate5947]

Omnipotent Dwarf 8 on one joint to get rid of them fast as possible.

[@AR-ml9eo]

Correct.

[@buckcheep]

The thing that they're screwing into the box end of the collar are nubbins. The Blue thing he smashed the thread protector off the in end is a centralizer.

I used to manually spin nubins into some 68-72 30-footer, 9&5/8ths inch surface casing joints. Forearms would be on fire and cramping after that

Never seen casing run this way. It seems terribly boring, I’d rather work with a spider and tongs honestly. At least then there’s something to do.

It's still a dangerous job. It's the oilfield anything can happen in a blink of an eye.

what's keeping that lift pin from coming out

[@snakede1457]

Hope.

[@brianbest2]

It appears the handle on the pin has to be rotated to vertical for it to come out. There is a groove on the small square on the part that goes up and down and rotates that keeps it from coming out.

[@sarnxero2628]

I thought nubbin was the white guy.

[@brennoncook6279]

The nubbin is the lift sub screwed into the top of the 9 5/8ths casing

[@conantdog]

Whey do they not have a elevated stowage for the nubbin ? Looks heavy to lift up and down repeatedly. Is it a safety spark prevention from falling ?

[@kareemmohammed9995]

there are many comments on this operation: 1-why not using the API Casing thread compound before making up connections!! 2-you have not to remove the thread protectors from the pin threads until catching the casing joints into the rig floor to keep threads from the shocks 3-avoid spinning the joints fast for connection to avoid thread burning due to high rotation speed . 4-using safety clamps in case of slips failure. 5-I was wondering to how much weight limit this 2"link can hold and how he can know if he reached the optimum torque limit, no one say through the martin dicker :) :)

I've run all sizes of casing from 60" on down to 3". The speed we had was restricted by the casing thread type. Back then Mannesmann was popular due to the square threads that minimized binding. No clue what they run today.

[@ralphaverill2001]

What is the weight of the string of casing pipe that must be lifted and held by the machinery?

[@nunyabizness8539]

Ralph Averill it depends on the thickness of the casing and the weight of the casing. It could be anywhere from 15 to 40 pounds per foot so it could be anywhere from let’s say 150,000 pounds to 400,000 pounds for a 10,000 foot strong. Some of these rigs can lift anywhere from 1 million pounds or greater. Hope that helps a bit
