TOPDRIVEDRILLINGSYSTEMS

Delivering solutions that add real value, around the world


TECHNOLOGY FOR TODAYS DRILLERS
Over a decade ago, TeSCO Corporation pioneered a technology that made modern drilling procedures available to most rigs.

TOPDRIVEDRILLINGSYSTEMS
THE TOP DRIVE SYSTEM:
With the ability to bring time and cost efficiencies to any drilling application, Tescos line of hydraulic and electric Top Drives has proven successful on rigs worldwide. In every location land-based or offshore, from the frigid Arctic to desert heat, urban locations to remote jungle, anywhere there is a well to be drilled, a Tesco Top Drive can improve operations.

USING TOP DRIVE PRACTICALLY


Whether your specific drilling operation calls for directional, horizontal, underbalanced, air or gas drilling, reaming, running casing, well control, or fishing, the Tesco Top Drive can c o n t r i b u t e in ways that will save time and money. Here are some practical examples of what a Tesco Top Drive is capable of and what that means to you. A TESCO Top Drive can screw into the drill string at any height in the derrick and provide simultaneous reciprocation, rotation and circulation of drilling fluids. The ability to ream and backream with full stands. eliminates the need to pick up the kelly to begin circulation and rotation, thereby decreasing the risk of becoming stuck. No need to break stands into singles for reaming. No requirement to pump out singles with the resulting hole problems.

The Top Drive can rotate the drill string both clockwise and counter clockwise with highly controlled torque. Ability to rock the drill string in order to break the static friction while slide drilling. This allows the drilling of extended horizontal sections in shallow wells. capable of making on bottom connections with the drill string, eliminating the need to re-orient the drill string in slide drilling. Facilitates free-point and back-off operations during fishing.

Double or triple stands of pipe can be made up in advance and drilled in with the TESCO Top Drive, thereby reducing the number of necessary connections by 50% or more. In air or gas drilling, decreases the number of connections and thus the blow down time. Decreases the amount of time that the hole is not underbalanced in UBD operations. Allows 20 or 30 meter core barrels to be drilled without a connection, decreasing the chances of a jam-off.

The TESCO Top Drive allows for continuous fill up and/or circulation while running casing. saves time filling casing. Allows circulation, rotation, and reciprocation of casing. Decreases circulating time and stuck casing risk.

Link Tilt and Extend robotics assist in casing handling. Increases safety and speed when running casing. Reduces need for specialized casing running equipment.

In the event of a kick, the well can be secured with the double ball valve. Provides a second alternative to traditional stabbing valve well control procedures. Driller can shut-in the well without drill floor crew even while tripping.

The TESCO Top Drive eliminates the need for a rat hole contractor. No rat hole is required since there is no kelly. The Tesco Top Drive itself is capable of drilling the mouse hole. With a Tesco Top Drive, you are able to start drilling with two or three drill collars increasing initial penetration rates.

Versatility At Its Best In extremely cold climates, a one-piece skid building is available to enable maintenance and operation of the power unit in temperatures below minus 40c. Units have been operated to 56c with optional high temperature packages. For offshore platforms or other locations where space is at a premium, the power unit can be split and stacked with a Tesco stacking kit. If ambient noise is a consideration, various soundproof buildings are available to significantly decrease the sound of diesel powered hydraulic systems.

TESCOS EXCLUSIVE FEATURES


Torque Track Tescos modular concept torque track is completely portable and can be adapted to fit different sizes and styles of rigs. Little or no rig modifications are required to install the Top Drive. For special rig designs or sizes, adapter pieces are available to allow the Tesco Top Drive to fit into almost any rig configuration. Speed and Torque Ranges A selection of speed and torque ranges, gear ratios and other features provide optimization of available power for a variety of drilling programs Pipe Handler Tesco Top Drives include pipe handling features that make the drilling operation safer, quicker and easier. Power Operated Elevators All Tesco Top Drives are available with remote hydraulic elevators to fit all drill pipe sizes from 2-7/8 to 5-1/2. Extend Tescos extend feature moves the Top Drive out over the mouse hole allowing connections to be made at eye level, reducing cross threading and drill pipe damage. Integrated Swivel Tesco Top Drive designs provide the option for an integrated swivel and a one-piece quill. The quill is a dry spline design that can be removed and replaced without draining oil from the gearbox. This operation can be performed in the shop, or if necessary, on the rig floor.D Ball Valve All Tesco Top Drives are equipped with a dual ball valve, located below the quill. The upper valve (hydraulically actuated by the driller) serves as a mud saver valve. The lower (manually activated) provides redundancy for well control. Generator Sets A selection of diesel powered self-contained generator systems are available for electric Top Drives.
