Abstract

A movable platform system for performing workover tasks on a wellhead includes a platform base with a base wellhead access gap at its front end. At least one track is fixed to the upper surface of the platform base and extends from the rear of the platform base to a position near the rearward edge of the base wellhead access gap. A platform support frame with a wellhead access gap at its front end is coupled to the track and configured for movement along the length of the track. An upper platform is connected to the platform support frame and also has a platform wellhead access gap at its front end. The three wellhead access gaps at the three levels of the platform system are substantially aligned when the moveable platform support frame is disposed and locked in the working position above the wellhead. Workers on the upper platform have access to equipment surrounding the wellhead.

Claims (19)

1. A movable platform system for performing workover tasks on a wellhead comprising:
an elongated platform base having front and rear ends, said front end of said platform base provided with a base wellhead access gap;
at least one track longitudinally fixed to an upper surface of said platform base, and positioned between said front and rear ends;
a platform support frame having front and rear ends, said front end of said platform support frame provided with a support frame wellhead access gap, said platform support frame movably associated with said track; and an upper platform supported by said platform support frame, said upper platform having a front end provided with an upper platform wellhead access gap substantially vertically aligned with said support frame wellhead access gap, said platform support frame and said upper platform movable between said front and rear ends of said platform base, thereby providing workers with both ground access and elevated access to an area surrounding said wellhead.
2. The platform system of claim 1 wherein said at least one track is a pair of parallel spaced apart tracks and said platform support frame is movably associated with each member of said pair of spaced apart tracks.
3. The platform system of claim 2 wherein said platform support frame has four corners, each having a leg coupled to a corresponding member of said pair of tracks.
4. The platform system of claim 2 or 3 wherein said pair of tracks extends to forward portions of said platform base on both sides of said base wellhead access gap.
5. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 4 wherein said upper platform has four corners, and each of said four corners is connected to said platform support frame by an upper platform support member.
6. The platform system of claim 5 wherein each of said upper platform support members is vertically extendable and configured to set said upper platform at a variable height above said platform support frame.
7. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 6 wherein said base wellhead access gap is substantially aligned with said support frame wellhead access gap and said upper platform wellhead access gap when said platform support frame is in its forwardmost position along said at least one track.
8. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 7 wherein said platform support frame is coupled to said track with one or more wheels.
9. The platform system of claim 8 wherein said wheels have outer ridges that extend downwardly along said track's outward side.
10. The platform system of claim 8 or 9 wherein said wheels are provided with a housing having opposed lateral sides extending downwardly adjacent to sides of said wheels.
11. The platform system of any one of claims 8 to 10 wherein said track includes a plurality of transverse holes along its length, each of said holes configured for insertion of a locking pin for blocking rolling movement of said wheels along said track.
12. The platform system of claim 10 or 11 wherein said housing is provided with at a transverse hole on each side of said housing for locking said housing to said track by insertion of said locking pin through transverse holes on opposite sides of said housing and through an intervening transverse hole in said track.
13. The platform system of claim 9 further comprising an outrigger bar removably attachable to said track at a plurality of longitudinal positions along said track, said outrigger bar configured to stabilize the platform.
14. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 13 further comprising one or more means for lifting said upper platform, wherein said means for lifting said upper platform is attachable to said platform support frame.
15. The platform system of claim 14 wherein said means for lifting said upper platform is a screw jack system comprising a plurality of screw jacks each extending from said platform support frame to said upper platform.
16. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 15 further comprising a secondary platform releasably attachable to a forward portion of said upper platform support frame by a pair of horizontally-adjustable extension members.
17. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 15 wherein said upper platform includes removable railing sections connected to edges of said upper platform, said railing sections inwardly foldable onto the surface of said upper platform for transportation.
18. The platform system of any one of claims 5 to 16 wherein each of said four corners of said upper platform includes an upwardly extending post configured for securing a safety line, said post inwardly foldable onto the surface of said upper platform for transportation.
19. The platform system of any one of claims 1 to 17 wherein said platform base includes at least one wheel at said rear end, said wheel configured to provide rolling motion along the ground, to said platform system when said base frame is lifted at its front end and moved rearwardly, thereby facilitating ground transport of said platform system.
