Worked back in 1973, still remember the night around Xmas when no one showed up to work, just me and the tool push driller guy, I run casing, threw the chain, was motorman and unloaded a truck full of casings. Oh yeah, unloaded some mud mix into the pit. Did i mention it was my first day of working rigs? Holds a special place in my experience! I never knew anyone could swear like that haha
Never seen casing run that slow. Much safer than how we did it. Hated having a driller in a hurry. Casing that size, coming through the V door after being raised too fast, has snapped ropes on me before. Seen inexperienced casing hands dragged across the floor too! You know why God made casing hands? Cuz roughnecks need heroes too! 😂
Watch casing being drifted and cleaned while it's being run down whole is pretty cool...I run a 8 man Tally crew who cleans,drifts,tallies the casing and bunks it for rigs...we supply casing for southwestern,coterra/Cabot...its very interesting to see what rig hands do and to actually see how the casing is run
This roughneck is also a casing hand and clean and drift crew as well. Oilfield thought of the day..Don’t put your hands where you wouldn’t put your pecker! God bless the roughneck!
Back in the late 70s me 17 and kid brother 15 working on a triple. Production casing run, to TD. The drift got hung up on the top treads, when the pipe slip by the V door it broke lose for the fast fall. MY DRILLER SAID RUN. The motor man held onto the swing casing. The drift fell and bounced off the steel floor ripping my motor mans face off. I guess we all have are PTSS.
Taking way too much critical path time to drift and only work with one hand. no stabbing guide either so you have to love the care and attention they are giving. Even though it is an intermediate string it needs to be run as if it was a production string. Always ensure dual barrier when performing primary cementing too, and thread care is integral. 45 years on offshore semis and drillships taught me the wrong way to do lots of things.
I'm very familiar with this well Head Equipment.. And with Running Tool.. I'm almost 20year in Assembly Department..Jakarta.. Oman and Saudi Arabia FMC TECHNOLOGY.. Technipfmc.. Sweet memory.. ❤️❤️
Yup that’s what the Big companies love. One man doing the work of three. I bet they will take care of him and his family when his back, knees, and hips are worn out. Yup they will right there putting food in their mouths and shoes on their feet. He has the physical ability now and two other hands are doing what ever they can to keep a roof over their family’s heads. Shame Shame SA.
Should be using the Tesco CRT. Way faster than that McCoy thing, also should have been drifted on the ground. Sure fire way to get stuck taking that long.
@@roughneckingandfitness We we’re fishing the next day we we’re still short handed and my driller to the other crew “Either one of you are going to stay or all of you are gonna stay I’m not watching him work the floor by himself again “ one of the guys stayed.
Wait how does that coupling work? I didnt see threads. I do commercial and municipal water wells and when we run steel casing we weld all of our joints
@@derekbernard3905 good man thanks, on my second hitch now. Doing good working hard. Hitches are 10 nights and 10 days. Got that first pay which is motivating
Работают очень плохо. Медленно, где все люди? Посадил на клинья труба должна быть готова, прошобланированна и смазана. Работал в Нейборсе в России за такую работу давно попросили с работы.
@Oakland Raider1982 What is the industry going to do when there's no more oil to extract from the ground? Oil is a finite resource and when it's gone, it's gone.
@Oakland Raider1982 I know that, bud. But it's coming a lot quicker than you think. Why do you think big money is going into fusion energy now? That's where we're going. Also, there's nothing environmentally sound about oil - biggest lie I've ever heard lol.
Mucha tecnologia para trabajar tan lento, se supone que tienen problemas con la estabilidad de hoyo, de lo contrario no se explica el uso de esta herramienta, trabajar seguro no significa trabajar lento. Podras perforar a 300ft/h, usar el mejor lodo y broca...pero si no aterrizas el CSG...mierda.
This seems way too slow. The cost of the rig per day is a lot more expensive than the cost of wages for hands ! I can’t see this being cost effective for anyone !
Se puede hacer mas rapido, ahi lo hacen lento por el video. Trabaje con Tesco en Venezuela norte de Monagas, en pozos de 21 mil pies, bajando de 10 a 13 mil pies dd tuberias 9_ 5/8 en tiempo aceptable. Tambien hicimos casing Driling con caising de 13 - 3/8 en Petro Cumarebo Estado Falcon. Para esos años era un exito. No se ahora ya no trabajo en esa rama.
@@roughneckingandfitness Do it right and do it once. Do it wrong and either someone gets hurt, it needs to be redone or the string gets dropped, and then it's 3 days to fish it out. Slow and steady is always the best way.
