Replacement Parts
Using non-OEM/counterfeit components in the load path can lead to catastrophic failure,
causing harm to personnel and/or equipment damage. Non-OEM/counterfeit parts may fail, or
may interfere with a compliant part and cause a failure.

Load path components are designed and manufactured to safety factor and inspection
acceptance criteria of API Spec 8C. Some of these requirements are:

• Raw material impurities control.

• Tensile and low temperature Charpy impact test performed at specific locations on the raw
material before fabrication.

• Inspection of fabricated components verifying tolerances according to latest revision of


drawings and technical process instructions given to an approved supplier, and validated by
Canrig Quality Control.

Using a single non-OEM/counterfeit component in the load path may void warranty, liability, and
API Spec 8C compliance of the product. Contact RigLine 24/7™ Support immediately to correct
this situation, or for more information.

Lock-Out/Tag-Out
Always perform the correct lock-out procedures as recommended by the Safety or Loss
Prevention department before implementing maintenance.

• Only authorized personnel may install and operate the top drive system.

XII Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Installation Guide

Energy Sources
The top drive will be energized automatically if the stored torque in the drill string rotates the top
drive backwards more than 5 rpm - even if the QUILL switch is set to neutral. This is to prevent an
uncontrollable backspin even if the stored torque in the drill string is instantly released.

Electrical voltages of different potentials are used throughout the Canrig top drive components
(600 VAC, 208 VAC, 120 VAC, 840 VDC, 5-24 VDC). It is imperative that only qualified personnel
install, maintain and/or troubleshoot the electrical systems. A severe hazard exists to personnel
not accustomed to, or familiar with, electrical hazards and procedures.

There are high voltage capacitors installed in the ACS800 drive module. It is imperative that at
least 5 minutes elapse, after power to the drive has been turned off, before any testing or repairs
be undertaken at the module. The capacitors require time to ‘drain’ their stored electrical
energy.

Accumulators used in the auxiliary hydraulic system are under pressure from gas. Release this
pressure before any maintenance is done on the auxiliary hydraulic system.

Pre-Installation Activities

Rig Installation and Measurement


To ensure that top drive installation progresses smoothly, complete a detailed rig measurement
package before ordering equipment. Rig measurement packages are available from Canrig.

Accurate rig measurement helps do the following:

• Determine an equipment placement plan

• Determine the best method for installing the top drive

• Identify specialized equipment requirements, including the following:


• torque track hanging pad eye
• components and subs (top drive to drill string)
• cable lengths and specific accessories
• air/electric safety interlocks
• torque arrest system components
• roller saddle or cable/hose saddle mounting requirements
• mud hose extension and connection
• standpipe extension
Contact RigLine 24/7™ Support to complete the rig measurement package. This will help to ensure
that the equipment will fit properly within the rig’s configuration.

Power/Service Connection Requirements


Discuss the following items with a qualified Canrig representative before requesting shipment of
the top drive system:

• size and output of all generators

• type and model of the distribution/SCR systems

Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. 2-1


250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

The top drive system requires a 600 VAC, 50 Hz power supply. If the top drive unit is equipped with an
integrated generator, then the connection requirements for fuel and air should be considered.

The following figures illustrate the connection considerations to address before the top drive
system arrives on location.

Caution!
Hydraulic power unit power cabling must be
connected to a power source that is located
in a non-hazardous zone area.

Main Power Requirements (Rig AC Bus)


1. Determine a location for the power and mechanical modules. If the rig configuration has not
been finalized, then select two possible locations for the power module.

2. Determine where the main disconnect breaker panel will be located. The best location
provides room for service personnel and some shelter from the weather.

3. Determine the distance from the AC-Bus to the breaker panel.

4. Determine the distance from the breaker to the power module.

5. Determine if any special equipment is required. Examples: penetration or plug boards. This
equipment is required if the three-phase power cables must pass through walls on their way
from the main breaker to the power module.

6. Determine if cable tray or suitable space is available to accommodate three-phase power


cables (from the breaker to the power module). If adequate space is not available,
determine what materials would be required to protect the cables from the breaker to the
power module.

7. If the customer is providing the main power supply (interconnection package), contact
RigLine 24/7™ Support.

Fuel Considerations
If the top drive unit is equipped with an integrated generator, then the connection requirements
for fuel and air should be considered.

1. Determine the location and type of the fuel supply. The fuel connector line should be 1 in
(2.5cm) minimum, and it should be able to supply enough fuel for the power unit’s maximum
consumption. The fuel return line should also be 1 in (2.5 cm) minimum.

2. For the Detroit Diesel 635 hp (474 kW) Genset, maximum consumption is 22.8 gallons per hour
(86 liters per hour).

3. Determine the required length of the fuel line. Determine the route it will take from the fuel
supply to the power unit. Avoid routing the fuel line where it might become damaged or
pinched.

4. Verify the quality of the fuel supply. Poor fuel quality might require special treatment. For
example, fuel line heaters might be required in areas where diesel fuel contains high levels of
paraffin.

1. Determine if the air supply is adequate, 100 psi (689 kPa) minimum with a 1 in (2.5 cm) supply
line.

2. Verify the quality of the air supply. If the humidity in the area is high, then a moisture trap
might be required to remove moisture from the starter’s air supply.

3. Determine the required length and route of the air supply line. Avoid routing the line where it
might become damaged or pinched. Placing the air receiver close to the power unit might
help it start more easily.

Equipment Inspection (Pre-installation)


Although Canrig Quality Control inspects all top drive equipment before shipping, some damage
might occur while equipment is in transit.

It is important to identify any shipping damage as quickly as possible. This allows for any necessary
repairs to be made, ordering of equipment replacements, and optimizing system readiness.

As part of a pre-installation equipment inspection, do the following:

• Check all shipping containers for damage. External damage may indicate damage to
contents.

• Visually inspect all principle components for damage or missing parts.

• If the top drive system is shipped with fluid levels at full, check the fluid levels. Low fluid levels
may indicate a leak in the hydraulic, cooling, or lubrication system.

A sample equipment checklist is included in “ Pre-Installation Checklist”.

Equipment Placement

Optimal Placement of the Power Module and Auxiliary Hydraulic


Power Unit (HPU)
Placement of the power and mechanical modules is similar regardless of whether the power is
supplied by the rig or by an independent generator. The following diagram shows the optimal
placement of the power module and auxiliary hydraulic power unit. This placement is considered
ideal for the following reasons:

• The distance from the main disconnect breaker to the power module is short.

• The placement allows straight-line access from the cable reel to the cable/hose saddle.

• The power module is in the aft position (closest to the generators).

• The service loop cable connections are outboard of the rig. Excess service loop cable can be
easily secured on the roof of the power module when it is in this position.

• There is easy access to the power module waterfall.

• The auxiliary hydraulic power unit is placed close to the power unit and the connections of
the auxiliary hydraulic hose are easily accessible.

Warning!
Hydraulic power unit power cabling must be
connected to a power source that is located
in a non-hazardous zone area.

Although the location of the power module depends on the rig configuration, the factors listed
above should be considered when placing equipment.

How to Place the Power Module


1. Ensure the ground surface is level; remove any major obstructions.

2. Install rig matting or another secure material under the equipment location. Ensure the rig
matting extends far enough beyond the equipment to provide a walkway for outside service
activity.

3. Using a crane or loader, place the power module on the rig matting.

4. Move the auxiliary hydraulic power unit to a location within 30 ft (9.1 m) of the power module.

5. Connect the following cords from the auxiliary hydraulic power unit to the incoming cable
panel on the power module:
• one power cable

• one sensor cable

6. Connect the auxiliary hydraulic power module to the hose reel motor, using the auxiliary
hydraulics jumper hoses.

3-2 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Up Procedure

Optimal Placement of the Service Loop Reel


The service loop reel acts as a spooling and storage device for electrical cables and auxiliary
hydraulic hoses; it is not required during top drive operations. After the hoses and cables are
moved onto the saddle and connected to the power unit and top drive, the hose reel can be
moved from the installation location to any convenient storage area.

Figure 3-1 on page 3-2 shows the optimal location for the hose reel during installation of the
service loop. This position is considered optimal for the following reasons:

• There is a clear view of the cable/hose saddle.

• There is straight-line access from the hose reel to the cable/hose saddle.

Although the placement indicated on the illustration is considered optimal, placement of the reel
is determined by the available space on site. Always ensure that the selected path is free of
sharp edges and corners that can damage the service loop.

Optimal Placement of the Cable/Hose Saddle


The following illustration shows the optimal placement of the cable/hose saddle. This placement is
considered ideal because the cable/hose saddle is situated as follows:

• High enough to prevent cables from landing on the rig floor when top drive is lowered:

• If the mast height is 100 to 125 ft (30.5 to 38.1 m), it is 55 to 65 ft (16.8 to 19.8 m) above
the rig floor.

• If the mast height is 130 to 145 ft (39.6 to 44.2 m), it is 75 to 85 ft (22.9 to 25.9 m) above
the rig floor.

• Low enough to allow the top drive to reach the rig floor without straining or damaging cables.

• Where there is straight-line cable access from the power unit. This position is a low activity
area for overhead equipment. Accidental damage to cables is less likely to occur when the
roller saddle is placed here.

• available cable length (maximum service loop length is 225 ft (68.6 m) unless otherwise
requested)

• power module location

Rig Up Procedure

How to Install the Cable Roller Saddle

Note
The strongback type determines which
mounting hardware should be used. Discuss
mounting requirements during the rig
measurement and pre-installation analysis.

1. Use a crane or other available lifting equipment to move the cable roller saddle to the rig
floor.

2. Use a steel cable tugger to hoist the roller saddle to a predetermined location on the mast.

3. Mount the cable roller saddle to the strongback.

How to Install the Service Loop


There are typically two options to installing the service loop:

• Option 1: The service loop needs to be strung through the mast structure. A roller saddle
should be used as the service loops are typically ‘pulled’ over the roller saddle and through
the mast structure.

• Option 2: The service loop is hung outside the mast structure and does not have to pass
through the mast structure. The service loop is clamped to a cable/hose saddle and hoisted
up beside the mast.

How to Install the Service Loop: Option 1


Use this procedure to string the service loop through the mast structure by using a roller saddle.

7. Place the reel in a location where there is a clear view of the roller saddle.

8. Connect the auxiliary hydraulic power unit to the storage reel using the 35 ft (10.7 m) extension
hoses. To unreel the hoses when the auxiliary hydraulic system is not available, manually unreel
the hoses by connecting the two quick couplers closest to the hose reel motor. This allows oil
to free-flow through the motor, hoses, and quick couplers. If using this technique, the motor
free-wheels (no reel brake is available).

Rig Up Procedure

9. Ensure the auxiliary pump is operational. If the unit is connected to an independent


generator, ensure the fuel and air supply lines are connected.

Caution!
When connecting to the main electrical
power, ensure that 600 VAC power is
established with correct phase rotation and
that electrical power is available for the
hydraulic pump at the auxiliary hydraulic
power unit.

10. Bundle the ends of all the cables and hoses together in a soft sling.

11. On the rig floor, thread the steel cable tugger through the snatch block.

12. Attach the sling to the steel cable tugger. Verify that the slings are long enough to pass over
the roller saddle and extend to the service reel. If adequate sling length is not available, see
“How to Install the Service Loop: Option 2” on page 3-9.

13. Thread the slings over the roller saddle.

14. Attach the sling to the soft sling on the service loop.

15. Use the steel cable tugger to begin spooling out the service loop. Use the hydraulic reel
controls to hold back or feed the line as required.

16. Spool out the correct length of service loop (enough to reach from the reel side of the roller
saddle to the rig floor plus 2 ft (0.61 m)), then install the mast cable capture clamp as follows:
a. Use slings to attach the back plate of the capture clamp to the mast.
b. Position the urethane inserts on the back plate.
c. Position the cables and plates as indicated in Figure on page 3-8.
d. Tighten all bolts to prevent cables and hoses from slipping, then install the cotter pins in the
bolts.

reach the opposite side of the top drive,
however, they must all make the same even,
gentle bend at the ground.

17. Pull the remaining portion of the service loop over the roller saddle and down to the rig floor.

18. Use slings to secure the mast cable capture clamp assembly to the mast approximately 2 ft
(0.61 m) below the roller saddle on the reel side.

19. Connect the service loop cables and hoses at the top drive, the power module and the
auxiliary hydraulic power unit.

to the pad eye with a shackle, or wrap it around a suitable beam.

11. Use a shackle to attach the hose saddle to the hanging sling. The hose saddle sling must be
strong enough to hold loads of more than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg).

12. Use the steel cable floor tugger or crane to lower the saddle until the weight transfers to the
hanging sling.

13. Install a back-up safety sling around the hose saddle.

Warning!
This back-up sling is considered critical safety
equipment.

16. Hoist the free end of the service loop to the rig floor and secure it in place until it can be
connected to the top drive and driller’s panel.

Torque Arrest System

Before Installing the Torque Arrest System


Install a hanging pad eye in the crown before installing the torque arrest system. This pad eye
must be designed and installed to support the hanging weight of the entire torque assembly
(safe working load of 15,000 lb. (6804 kg) plus the recommended safety factor for overhead
equipment).

The pad eye is typically placed 22.5 in (57.15 cm) back from the crown cluster center. It is easiest
to install the pad eye when the mast is down. Discuss installation procedures with a Canrig
representative as part of pre-installation activities.

Warning!
Design and installation of the pad eye should
meet or exceed all safety specifications for the
operating area and operating conditions.

A variety of stabilization devices can be used to hold the torque arrest system in place during
operations. It is easiest to install the stabilization systems before raising the mast.

Torque Arrest System Components


A standard torque arrest system includes the torque beam, T-bar, and the following torque track
sections (typical). The number of torque track sections depends on the free working height of the
mast and is shown on the application drawing supplied with the top drive system:

• one adjustable hanging sling

• one cable clamp mount and cable capture clamp

• one 18.5 ft (5.6 m) reversible, bolted, bottom torque track section

• five 18.5 ft (5.6 m) standard torque track sections

• one 10 ft (3.1 m) torque track section

• one 5 ft (1.5 m) torque track section

3-14 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Up Procedure

Obtain additional length by lengthening the top section hanging sling. Purchase additional
torque track sections to accommodate larger masts.

The following two sections of torque track are also included:

• one 1.3 ft (0.4 m) deflector section (bull nose)

• one 2 ft (0.6 m) torque track section

Caution!
Never subject these sections to torque. Mount
them below the torque beam only.

The deflector section is always mounted at the bottom. Its tapered design assists in mounting the
torque bushing onto the torque track.

Torque Arrest System Configuration


The following must be determined before configuring the torque track:

• Height of the hanging pad eye for the torque track, measured from the rig floor (A)

• Position (height above rig floor) where the torque beam and T-bar will be mounted (B)

• Length of the hanging assembly for the torque track, including hanging swivel, nut, and
shackles (2.5 ft (0.8 m) minimum to 15 ft (4.6 m) maximum). Shorter configurations are safer
and more practical. Correct calculations will help ensure that the torque bushing will not
come off of the torque tube when the blocks are fully hoisted to the crown.

• The location of any upper strongback that may interfere with the vertical hanging of the
torque track. If the torque track is to remain in the mast during rig moves, match the torque
track connections to the mast connections wherever possible.

Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. 3-15


250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

Figure 3-13: Torque arrest system configuration

How to Determine the Torque Track Configuration (where an


application drawing is not supplied)
Sketch and calculate the following on paper before connecting sections of torque track.

1. Place the bottom of the deflector section 7 to 8 ft (2.1 to 2.4 m) above the drill floor (C).

2. Place the bottom bolted section of torque track above the deflector section. Ensure that a
suitable strongback for mounting the torque beam and T-bar is available somewhere along
the length of the bolted section of torque track. Remember that the bolted section is
reversible.

3. Stack the track sections (18.5, 5, and 10 ft sections) until they are 5 to 15 ft (1.5 to 4.6 m) from the
pad eye.

4. Determine the length of hanging assembly required. Ensure that the length of hanging
assembly is incorporated into the calculation.

5. Calculate the height of the torque bushing to ensure that it will not come off the top end of
the torque track when it is in the uppermost position.

Sample Calculation
If the mast height is 102 ft (31.1 m):

1. 102 ft less 7 ft (height above the rig floor for the deflector section) = 95 ft (29.0 m)

2. 95 ft less 2.5 ft (minimum hang sling length) = 92.5 ft (28.2 m)

3. 92.5 ft divided by 18.5 = five full length tubes; this does not include the deflector section.
Torque beam desired height = 11 ft (3.4 m)

3-16 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Up Procedure

The rig up would be as follows:

Total Length
Track Part Qty Length (ft)
(ft)
Hanging Track 1 18.5 18.5
Standard Tracks 2 37 (18.5 x 2) 55.5
10 ft section 1 10 65.5
5 ft section 1 5 70.5
Bolted* section 1 18.5 89
Deflector 1 1.3 90.3
Hanging Assembly 1 Set to 3 feet 90.3

* The bolted track section would be run with the bolt section down, below the standard track
sections and 10 ft (3 m) and 5 ft (1.5 m) sections. The deflector track section would be
mounted below the bolted section.

How to Install the Torque Arrest System


Use this procedure to install the torque arrest track system. Refer to Figure 3-15 on page 3-21.

1. Ensure the hanging pad-eye for the torque track is installed in the crown. Normal placement
for a standard track is 22.5 in (0.57 m) back from the crown cluster center.

2. Assemble the torque beam, T-bar, and T-bar clamp.

Warning!
Assemble the above with the T-bar at mid-
length. This balances the assembly during
lifting. The assembly should not be fully
torqued, but it should hold the T-bar securely in
place.

3. Use the steel cable tugger to move the torque beam onto the drill floor and up to the lowest,
most practical strongback beam. Install the torque beam low in the mast. Attach it to a large
beam anywhere between 10 ft (3 m) and 16 ft (4.9 m) above the drill floor. If installing it any
higher, additional stabilization might be required below the torque beam. Canrig can supply
additional stabilization, if required.

4. Use four clamps to mount the torque beam to the selected supporting beam. On a
permanent installation, weld the anchor beam clamp onto the mast.

5. Slide the T-bar to the most rearward position. Always mount the T-bar on top of the torque
beam.

Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. 3-17


250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

6. Use the calculation method described in “How to Determine the Torque Track Configuration
(where an application drawing is not supplied)” on page 3-16 to calculate the required
torque track section configuration. When the torque track is suspended, the bottom of the
deflector section should be 7 to 8 ft (2.1 to 2.4m) off the floor.

7. Set and secure the calculated pinned insert location (if used), or adjust the hanging assembly
to the appropriate length. Use a soft sling to hold the sling in place so that it will be easily
accessible when the torque track is lifted to the hanging pad eye.

8. Use the steel cable rig floor tuggers to hoist the first track section up to the floor. On most rigs,
two full-length sections of torque track can be assembled on the ground before being lifted
to the rig floor. If the rig is very small, the torque track lengths should be brought to the rig floor
one at a time. As the first section is installed, make up additional sections on the ground.

9. Lower the first track section through the rotary table or mousehole.
10. Lower the blocks and install two handling slings on the torque track. If the rotary table is too
small to permit the torque track to pass through, use an alternate location on the rig floor. If
no alternate location exists, mate the sections above the rig floor. Thread the slings through
the block becket and attach them to the top track using the handling assembly for the
torque track.

Caution!
Attach the top section of track such that the
top portion of track extends above the blocks.
This allows the hanging assembly to reach the
pad eye without crowning out the blocks.

11. Place a ratchet strap around the top of the blocks and thread it around the torque track.
12. Use the ratchet strap to pull the blocks and track together.
13. Hoist the blocks until they support the weight of the torque track. This immobilizes the track
section and keeps it hanging vertically as it travels up the mast.
14. Remove the steel cable floor tugger.
15. Hoist the blocks until the bottom of the first section is 8 ft (2.4 m) above the drill floor.
16. Connect the steel cable floor tugger to the second section of torque track and hoist it to the rig
floor.
17. Lower the second section of track through the rotary table or into the mousehole until it
reaches the appropriate level for connecting to the upper section (which is currently
suspended from the blocks).
18. Install all the studs and lower nuts before connecting the sections. The studs cannot be
installed after the track sections are connected.

3-18 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Up Procedure

19. Lower the blocks and upper section of track and connect the two sections. Bolt the sections
together, ensuring a flush connection. Coat all bolts with an anti-seize compound before
installation.
20. At the two lower-most sections of the torque track, including the deflector, install
connector guards as per guidelines in safety bulletin SB017. Torque the bolts 3/4 in-10UNC
Grade 8 Spiralock fasteners between 388 to 423 ft-lb. Working from the middle outwards,
use a criss-cross tightening pattern to ensure even clamping, as shown in Figure 3-14.

Figure 3-14: Fastener tightening for torque track flange

21. Repeat steps 16.–20. until all sections are connected and supported by the blocks. The last
section that is installed is typically composed of the reversible bolted section, the deflector
section and, if required, the two-foot track section.

22. Use a ratchet strap to secure the extend arms of the torque bushing in place.

23. Attach a steel cable tugger to the torque bushing and move the bushing onto the drill floor.
Ensure that the extend frame is down.

24. Position the torque bushing over hole center.

25. Use the blocks to lower the assembled torque track and stab it through the torque bushing.

26. When the torque bushing is in position, pin it in place. Ensure that the top drive pin ends are at
least 8 ft (2.4 m) above the drill floor. If the torque bushing is too tight to move freely along the
torque track, adjust the torque bushing by adding additional shim packs. To ensure a proper
fit, periodically check the bushing during the first few days of operation.

27. After the torque bushing is installed, raise the blocks to the crown.

28. Connect the hanging assembly of the torque track to the pad eye.

Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. 3-19


250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

29. When the hanging assembly is connected to the pad eye, lower the blocks until the weight of
the track is transferred to the pad eye. Do not remove the handling assembly yet. Use the
blocks to raise and lower the torque track while making the fine adjustments required to
connect the T-bar to the bolted section.

30. Connect the T-bar to the bolted section of the torque track. When connecting the bolted
section of the torque track, suspend the full weight of the torque track from the pad eye. If
possible, mount the T-bar so that it sits approximately 1/2 inch above the T-bar clamp so that
the torque hanging assembly carries the total weight of the torque track.

If the T-bar and bolted sections are not vertically aligned, then use the blocks to hoist the
track. While the track weight is suspended from the blocks, adjust the hanging swivel as
required. Up to 2 in (5.1 cm) of adjustment is available in the hanging assembly and the lock
nut.

31. When all T-bar fastening bolts are tight, move the T-bar to the correct position in the T-bar seat
and tighten the clamp to hold it in position. Hang the center of the torque track vertically,
22.5 in (0.57 m) back from the hole center.

32. Tighten the lock nut on the hanging assembly.

33. Remove the handling assembly at the crown and lower the blocks.

34. Install stabilization systems. These are most easily installed when the mast is down, but can also
be installed during rig-up.

35. Attach the stabilization devices to the torque track as shown in the following illustrations

Extend Arm Adjustment Procedure


The aim of this procedure is to ensure that the top drive hangs vertical and is aligned with the
hole center. Firstly, adjust the extend arms to ensure the top drive is vertical. Secondly, adjust the
torque track to align the top drive with the hole center.

1. Start with the extend frame retracted in and a joint in the rotary table.

2. Move the grabber box up to the point where the bottom end of the saver sub is protruding
through the grabber box.

3. Lower the top drive so that it is just above the joint in the rotary table (2 to 6 in (5.1
to 15.2 cm)).

4. Place a level on the top drive upper grabber leg to determine how the extend arms (extend
or retract) will have to be adjusted. The top drive should hang vertically; if adjustment is
required, loosen the jam nuts on the extend arm clevises.

5. Remove the upper extend arm pins and unbolt the split flanges in the extend arms.

Warning!
Use a cat line to support the top drive so it does
not tilt forward and to enable easy access and
adjustment.

6. Adjust the arms appropriately by adding or removing shims. This is a trial and error process
that requires guesswork. Ensure the extend arms are equal length by ensuring the same
amount of shims are installed in both extend arms.

7. Tighten the split flange bolts and re-pin the extend arms to the torque bushing.

8. Visually inspect the level. If satisfactory, as judged by the level, continue to the next step. If
the top drive is not satisfactorily level, repeat steps 4. through 8. until the top drive is vertical
(this is a trial and error process and may take 3 to 4 adjustments before the top drive is
vertical).

9. Torque the jam nuts appropriately (2,300 ft·lb (311 daN·m) dry, 1,725 ft·lb (233 daN·m)
lubed) with a wrench and ensure the retaining cap screws are installed on the lower
extend arm pins.

10. Visually inspect the alignment of the saver sub with the joint in the rotary table. If they are not
aligned, adjust the torque track by adjusting the T-bar in the T-bar clamp. The torque track
stabilizers must be adjusted accordingly to ensure the torque track hangs parallel to hole
center.

7. Close the needle valve on the counter-balance manifold.


8. Start the auxiliary pump.
9. Set the ELEVATOR switch (driller’s panel) to ‘OPEN’, and push and hold the ELEVATOR SAFETY–
OPEN button. This will send 1,500 psi (10,342 kPa) hydraulic pressure to the needle valve on the
counter-balance manifold.
10. Slowly open the needle valve and allow the hydraulic oil to charge the
counter-balance system.
11. Monitor the counter-balance cushion by watching the gap that develops between the swivel
bail and the block hook.

12. Continue to charge the system until the gap is 1.5 to 2 in (3.8 to 5.1 cm).

13. Close the needle valve.

14. Shut off the auxiliary pump. This will allow the oil pressure in the auxiliary system to decrease.

15. Set the ELEVATOR switch to ‘OPEN’, then to ‘CLOSE’. This will relieve any pressure in the system.

16. Remove the elevator hydraulic hose from the counter-balance manifold.

Caution!
If disconnecting a quick coupler while there is
pressure in the system, it will be extremely
difficult to reconnect the coupler.

Warnings

Electrical
If client-supplied power is not 600VAC, 50Hz, discuss necessary system changes with a qualified
Canrig representative.

Warning!
Electrical voltages of different potentials are
used throughout the Canrig top drive
components (600VAC, 208VAC, 120VAC,
840VDC, 5–24VDC). ONLY qualified personnel
should install, maintain, and/or troubleshoot
the electrical systems. A severe safety hazard
exists for personnel not accustomed to, or
familiar with, electrical hazards and
procedures.

Warning!
High voltage capacitors are installed in the
Drive power module. Wait at least five minutes
after disengaging power to the drive before
performing any testing or repairs in the module.
Capacitors require time to drain their stored
electrical energy.

Supply Power and Grounding


Grounding methodology has always been a challenge because of differing interpretations of the
rules and understanding of intent. On-site conditions such as add-on buildings fed from a
common power source or a separate power source and/or power sources not requiring a neutral
conductor all have specific grounding criteria that must be met. Canrig strives to maintain a safe
“standard” method of grounding so that its implementation becomes familiar to all personnel
installing these systems.

4-2 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


System Inspection on Startup

The following is Canrig’s recommended grounding method when a ground fault detection
system is not incorporated into the service supply.

Canrig incorporates a “single point” ground system when we provide the power source to Canrig
loads and/or add-on loads. Furthermore, when an “isolated” system (a power system that is not
conductively connected to the distribution system, as in the case of separate generator but most
commonly a transformer), is incorporated into our system of power supply, it is intended that all
ground paths be connected to the common ground electrode/s.

Drive Parameters
About Drive Parameters
The following drive parameters (torque and speed settings) can be modified from the driller’s
panel:

• Drill Forward – Torque and Speed

• Drill Reverse – Torque and Speed

• Connect Forward – Torque and Speed

• Connect Reverse – Torque and Speed

• Breakout – Speed

Set the drive parameters (torque and speed) to minimize the possibility of injury to personnel and
damage to drilling equipment. For example, limit the torque setting for Drill–Forward mode to

System Inspection on Startup

prevent the drill string twisting off while drilling. Set the speed and torque for Connect mode to
promote proper make up of tool joints and to prevent damage to threads and seal faces caused
by over-torquing.

Limit the rotation speed and torque of the pipe handler to ensure the pipe handler rotates at a
safe speed and stops rotating when it achieves the pre-set torque.

The drive system will not surpass the programmed torque and speed settings during operation. To
change the settings, use the following procedure. The steps required to set or adjust a setting are
the same for all functions.

5-2 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Out Procedure

Note
If there are plans to reinstall the top drive into
the existing mast, leave the torque track
stabilization equipment in place. If there are no
plans to reinstall the top drive, remove the
stabilization equipment when lowering the
mast.

1. Connect the steel cable tugger to the torque bushing and extend frame. Take the weight of
the load with the steel cable tugger. The bushing will be pinned near the bottom of the
torque track.

2. Remove the pin and carefully lower the torque bushing off the bottom of the torque track
and onto the rig floor.

3. Use the steel cable tugger to move the bushing out the V-door.

4. Run two torque track handling slings through the becket of the blocks.

5. Attach the pick-up pin of the torque track to the slings.

6. Raise the blocks to the crown.

7. Connect the torque track to the blocks by placing the pick-up pin of the torque track through
the hole in the torque track. Then, attach the slings to both sides of the pick-up pin.

8. With the slings and pick-up pin in position, hoist the blocks to transfer the weight of the torque
track from the torque track hanging assembly to the block slings.

9. Unbolt the T-bar from the torque track.

10. Loosen the T-bar clamp.

11. Slide the T-bar to its most rearward position. This prevents the T-bar from obstructing the torque
track during disassembly.

12. Re-tighten two bolts on the T-bar clamp.

13. Disconnect the hanging assembly from the pad eye in the crown.

14. Use the blocks to lower the torque track through the rotary table until the first flanged
connection is at working height.

250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

15. Use a 4-3/4 ton (4.3 metric tonne) shackle through the stabilizer attachment bar (on the back
of the torque track) to attach the steel cable rig tugger to the bottom section of track. This will
hold it in place while it is unbolted. If a wellhead is not installed, ensure that the casing bowl is
covered to prevent objects from falling into the hole.

16. Hoist the remaining track (suspended from the blocks) 10-15 ft above the rig floor.

17. Use the steel cable rig tugger (already attached) to lift the bottom section of track out of the
rotary table and off the rig floor.

18. Repeat steps 14.-17. for each section of torque track.

19. Remove the handling slings from the blocks and hoist the blocks clear of the rig floor.

20. Connect the steel cable tugger line to the T-bar/torque anchor beam.

21. Loosen and remove the anchor beam clamps.

22. Use the steel cable tugger to lower the T-bar/torque anchor beam and move it off the rig
floor.

Remove the Service Loop (Option 1)


Use the following procedure if the service loop is not strung through the mast and hangs off from
a cable/hose saddle.

1. Position the cable storage reel in a convenient location for spooling. There should be straight-
line access from the reel to the cable/hose saddle.

2. Disconnect all service cables and hoses from the plug board on the power unit and auxiliary
hydraulic power unit.

3. Move the disconnected ends to the storage reel. Clean and protect cable and hose ends.

4. Attach the steel cable tugger line to the cable/hose saddle.

5. Disconnect the cable/hose saddle from the mast.

6. Connect the hydraulic control lines from the auxiliary hydraulic power unit to the storage reel.

7. Begin to spool the cables and hoses onto the reel.

8. When all the slack is taken up, lower the cable/hose saddle while continuing to spool.

9. Stop spooling when the cable/hose saddle reaches the storage reel.

10. Mark the location of the cable/hose saddle on the hoses with tape or paint.

11. Remove the cable/hose saddle from the service loop.

5-4 Document ID 1270411 v 4.0


Rig Out Procedure

12. Spool the remainder of the service loop onto the storage reel.

Remove the Service Loop (Option 2)


Use the following procedure if the service loop is strung through the mast and over a roller saddle.

1. Use a soft sling to bundle all service loop cables and hoses that are at the rig floor.

2. Connect the sling to the steel cable floor tugger.

3. Remove any service loop stabilization slings that are currently installed.

4. Position the cable storage reel in a convenient location for spooling. Position the cable reel so
that there is straight-line access from the reel to the cable roller saddle.

5. Connect the hydraulic control lines from the auxiliary hydraulic power unit to the cable
storage reel.

6. Disconnect all service loop cables and hoses from the plugboards on the power module and
auxiliary hydraulic power unit.

Torque Standards for High Strength Fasteners
D
The following information originated from the Standards document STD0015.

Purpose
This standard should be used as a guideline for all fasteners used in production where the torque
values are not specified on the engineering documentation and drawings. All standards on
fasteners should be adhered to, as non-conformance can lead to the following:

• low quality products

• rework cost

• warranty claims

• late delivery

• customer dissatisfaction

• lower production

Standards
1. All capscrews, bolts and nuts have to be Grade 8 or equivalent unless noted otherwise
(U.N.O.).

2. Fasteners must be torqued in accordance with Table D-1, Table D-2, and Table D-4 U.N.O.
Torques should be applied smoothly and with a calibrated wrench.

3. Multiple fastener arrays must be made up evenly using an appropriate torque sequence to
minimize distortion. Fasteners shall be tightened using intermediate torque settings of 40% and
75% of values in the tables. All fasteners must be made up snug prior to starting the tightening
sequence.

Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. D-1


250 Ton EMI 400HP 50Hz

4. Fastener torques for bolting dissimilar materials must be based on the torque requirements for
the lower strength material U.N.O.

5. Fasteners and holes should be free of burrs or damage. Damaged threads must be repaired
using the appropriate tooling to ensure a free and smooth assembly.

6. When thread locking compound is used, holes and fasteners should be cleaned (free of oil or
grease) and the compound should be applied in conformance with manufacturer’s
recommendations.

7. Allowable bolt tension and torque based on bolt thread engagement must be in
accordance with Table D-5 U.N.O.

8. Special fasteners must be installed and torqued in accordance with Table D-2.

9. When threadlock is used, fasteners must be torqued in accordance with Table D-1, Table D-2
and Table D-4, using the ‘Lubricated’ Torque data U.N.O.

10. For torque values for B7 studs with 2H nuts, see Table D-4.

11. Lubricated fasteners must have oil or thread locking compound applied to the threads only.

12. Where metals with strongly varying electromotive properties are bolted together, such as
steel and aluminum, thread locking compounds should be applied to limit the effects of
galvanic corrosion.

13. A minimum of two full threads should project above any nut or locknut installed on a stud or
as part of a bolted connection. Additional length is allowed to install safety pins or cotter pins
to prevent fasteners from falling into overhead equipment.

Hand Signals for Boom Equipment Operation
E
The following chart contains examples of typical signals used by the signalman during boom
equipment operations. If the project requires special signals, agree on what they will be before
beginning operations.

Boom operators will not respond to unclear signals.

Designate one signalman before operation begins. The boom operator accepts signals only from
the designated signalman.

This Signal Means This

Use Load Line


Tap fist on head, then use regular
signals.

Use Whip Line
