Discuss emergency shut down procedures.

READY TO PICKUP CASING

Remove chocks from the casing on pipe rack, using a

metal hook.

It is recommended to roll all casing from the

ground level.

If this is not possible, and personnel are required

to be on top of the casing; then the use of

walkways are recommended. DO NOT walk on

bare casing, use the walkway.

Access the walkways from the end opposite the

catwalk using a secured ladder or stairs.

PICK UP WITH PICKUP MACHINE:

Roll the joint to the pickup machine using a pipe roller.

Install casing thread protector.

Discuss procedures with Rig Manager to include:

- Manifest / material transfer requirements

- Location of tubulars.

- Unloading procedure.

- Number and position of trucks on location.

- Size of forklift required (Capacity & length of

forks).

- Pipe racks, stripping (in good condition), and

proper chocks.

line from lifting-eye.

After Derrickman has unhooked from lay down line,

position lay down line for next joint. Secure hoist line.

Assist in removing lifting-eyes and snatch block from

hoist line, make sure hoist line is secured in proper

position.

Refer to “Trip Out Of Hole” procedure until next joint is

Position blocks to install “PICK UP” / “RIG UP” line.

Have crew members rig up lay-down line, for

snubbing drill collar into rig floor.

PICK UP blocks and allow crew members to guide

“PICK UP” / “RIG UP” line out the V-door.

Lower “PICK UP” / “RIG UP” line slowly down V-door.

Standby while Backup Hand attaches “PICK UP” /

“RIG UP” line to lifting-eye in drill collar and snubbing

line to pin-end of drill collar.


When flagged, Driller picks up drill collar slowly with

blocks, as Motorman snubs with hoist into position to

stab in Mousehole.

Instruct crew members to secure drill collar with “tail

rope” over Mousehole.

Hold in position over Mousehole while crew members

remove snub line, pin protector and Mousehole cover.

Instruct crew members to guide drill collar using “tail

rope” while lowering into mouse hole. Once drill collar

is stabbed into Mousehole, “tail rope” is removed.

Instruct crew members to STAND CLEAR as blocks

are lowered and there is slack in the “PICK UP” /

“RIG UP” line.

Refer to Rig Specific JSA.
