Product Top Drive and Spare parts
The top drive is a mechanical device on a drilling rig that provides clockwise torque to the drill string to drill a borehole. It is located at the swivel's place below the traveling block and moves vertically up and down the derrick.
Top Drive
Function: The top drive allows the drilling rig to drill longer sections of drill pipe in one operation. It can drill 60 - 90 - foot (18 - 27 m) stands, while a rotary table - type rig can only drill 30 - foot (9.1 m) single drill pipe sections. This enables greater daily progress and reduces the time and risk of connecting drill pipes. It also improves time efficiency as it requires fewer and quicker connections when adding drill pipe lengths, reducing the risk of a stuck string.
Types: There are several types of top drives, usually classified based on the "safe working load" (SWL) of the equipment and the size and type of motor used to rotate the drill pipe. For example, 1000 - short - ton units are used for offshore and heavy - duty applications, while smaller land rigs may only require 500 - short - ton devices. They can be powered by hydraulic motors, or AC or DC electric motors.
Accessories
Main shaft: Made of Medium Carbon Alloy Steel with API Standard, it can hold max.15000Psi driling fluid and can carry max.500TON Pulling.the max.working torque 55,000ft-lbs
Gear Box:The gears and bearings should be inspected regularly for wear, cracks, and other damages. Early detection and replacement of damaged components can avoid major failures of the gearbox.
IBOP: The Intemal Btowout Preventer of Top Drive, is also called Top Drive Cock. General, the duration ofcontinuous operation is 3000 hours or 120 days.
