Abstract

1,242,503. Boring earth &c. GLOBAL MARINE Inc. 14 Oct., 1969, No. 50468/69. Heading E1F. A rotating end guiding head 38 for kelly and drill pipe joints is moved rearwardly and forwardly by a parallel pair of telescopic assemblies 35, the head being designed and operated so that a joint passing rearwardly between the assemblies into the head may discharge from the head as the head moves forwardly. Each of the assemblies is pivoted to a post 33 and yieldably supported by a post 39 to permit vertical movement of the head whilst the joints are being connected or dis-connected. The assemblies each comprise a tube 41 attached to the head and reciprocable in a tube 40 by means of a chain 53 driven by a common motor 47 to move the head over a rotary table 26. The head has gripping jaws (not shown) mounted on a rotatable hub 79 having passage 97 which may be aligned with the passage between the assemblies. A stand of drill pipe 77 is moved rearwardly along rails 24 by a skate 25 until the rearward end of the stand is over the end of an arm 130. The end of the stand is raised by the arm and the travelling block so that the stand engages a guide frame 23. Further rearward travel of the skate causes the stand to approach the vertical to move along the passage between the assemblies and finally enter the passage 97 in the hub. After the stand enters the passage 97, the head is turned through 90‹ and the tubes 41 extended to permit the stand to be dropped into a mousehole (not shown). The drill string 133 in the rotary table is raised to expose the lower end of the kelly, and the head is engaged with the kelly and the hub is rotated anti-clockwise (or the table is rotated clockwise) to uncouple the kelly from the string. The head is moved over the mousehole, the kelly is dropped or stabbed into engagement with the stand, and the hub is rotated to join the kelly and stand. The kelly and stand are raised in the head, moved over the rotary table, lowered and rotated by the hub to join them to complete the string. The apparatus is mounted on a drilling vessel and may be used to remove pipe from the string.
