Handling Tubulars
When handling tubulars, the following applies:
- The pipe is unloaded from trucks onto the pipe rack.
- The floor crew brings pipe from the pipe rack and catwalk, using the catline, air hoist or hydraulic winch, up to the drilling floor and places it in the mousehole.
- This is done for every connection.
Handling tubulars can be hazardous.
Note: The rig supervisor should hold a pre-job meeting with the crew to review responsibilities and to coordinate the operations to be performed.
