Lifting Gear Survey
Safe and successful lifting operations depend, in large
part, on the continued safety of the lifting equipment and
accessories that are used. Failures in this kind of

specific obligations on those providing, controlling and
using lifting equipment to properly manage these risks.

 Tubetrack
A Comprehensive Online Reporting
System
“Tubetrack” Innovative Reporting
Solutions
• Tubetrack is used for tracking the history of tubular and which can help client
to monitor the condition of its tubular at any point of time.
• Tubetrack is an online web based system which can be accessed from
anywhere and does not need installation on the client's computer.
• Traditional form of giving reports doesn’t allow the client to have a look at
previous inspection records instantly and it becomes difficult for him to track
on the deterioration of the tubular happening over a period of time..
• The heart of Tubetrack lies in the different type of reports that it is able to
generate. The client at any point of time can find out how many tubular are
currently due for inspection or he can even check how many tubular are
getting due for inspection in a particular month. This way he can plan and
schedule his inspection program.
• Tubetrack also has query based reports wherein one can key in the criteria's
and based on that criteria's list of tubular matching the criteria's are displayed.
This can be really helpful in planning for purchases of new tubular and also
for the Rig managers to check on which all pipes he can use and which all are
on borderline of rejection which he can keep separate and use it if necessary.

19
History
“Tubetrack” was conceived as an alternate reporting format to
help the Industry keep track of its tubular in a much efficient
manner, the Industry with its challenges on day to day basis had
to have information instant which saves COST for all involved.

Tubular reports, a vital input to a successful drilling campaign

had its difficulties with conventional reporting which resulted in
number of sheets, where keeping track of your vital asset was
rather impossible and cumbersome.

Tubetrack resolves issues considerably offering a Client a

relatively Paper free environment and better tracking of its
tubular – a fact truly appreciated by Industry Majors.

of preparation to spud a well

• Interruptions in drilling operations due to improper or malfunctioning

equipment is a cause of expensive NPT which is avoidable

• Proper and appropriate rig inspections before acceptance of the rig, before
the well is spud and follow up surveys during operations are critical to reduce
downtime, increase reliability and safety and allow adequate environmental
management and further to reduce NPT time related costs

handling equipment, DROPS etc integrated the Rig Inspection to the existing
capabilities in Q4, 2012 through a team of highly experienced drilling
personnel and inspectors
