I broke my leg whilst working on one of their rigs. They’re a disgusting company that even when you have a traumatic life changing injury, they will make attempts to separate themselves from it. I’m not talking about, one day my back hurt. My leg literally snapped whilst handling pipe, and they made a weak ass attempt at blaming an injury I had when I was 11 years old(20 years ago) scum bag company.
AKA you are American and work on junk equipment for less money and less safety. Most of rigs you are running down south we stopped using 40 years back. Spinning chains haven’t been used in Alberta in the last 30 years.
Automation has been the best thing that ever happened in the oil patch! It can not only save injuries. Safety is the biggest issue. Injuries can be avoided in some situation's. But not all injuries because of mechanical issues. What can go wrong will go wrong. I'm old school back in the late 70" s. Hats off to better inventions in the oil patch. When I worked even back then I would always think if I could make it easier are safer. These guys are very lucky they have this equipment. The oil patch still has a long way to go. So all rigs are mandatory to have automation land and offshore.....
Man I hear ya. Safety is great. I learnt same as yourself on old school shit. I wouldn't trade that for this new technology. My days ended when the new came in fully.i tried it just 5 years ago and I kept getting penelize for unsafe work when too me was normal. I still have my fingers and all other parts. Different world now for sure. Be safe brother in years too come🤘
The worst accident outside a single fatality falling from the monkey board, was a driller who coming to work was speared by a cattle guard gate that the wind had blown half shut. It was on an uphill incline. It hit him in the throat and collar bone and pushed him out the back window of his pickup. Months and months to recover.
Did this in the Texas panhandle in the early 80's. I would have been the floor hand using the yellow tongs in this video. Still miss my crew since moving back home.
Sce Demons times sure have changed since I was roughnecking!! Only crews that had power tongs around us were casing crews! Never seen elevators like these. Suppose offshore rigs had all this. If my dad was still alive I'd ask him. He broke me out in Colorado on a triple in 72. He worked all around the world by the time he retired.
@Mike Vega These guys can make up to $200,000 onshore and $500,000 on a offshore rig. I already showed you a few job posting links on a different youtube video when I replied to another one of your jealous comments....smh. Maybe they don't pay that high in the United States....but up here in Canada oil is big, especially out in the Prairies. Learn to get educated about the oil industry because clearly you aren't.
Mike Vega that’s wrong lol I worked service rigs making $24/h and that was as a first year just a lease hand drillers make $200,000 ish a year and consultants make a ton more than that With the amount of overtime I was working I made roughly $400 per day
bertski60 is correct. It takes the skill out of being a roughneck. Manual elevators made the derrick hand be on his toes and the spinning chain was much faster than the power tongs.
Yes, I really miss picking all of the nice metal splinters out of my hands from throwing a chain. I would like to see these roughnecks work on a standard derrick drilling rig back in my day. No hydraulic wrench, instead of a throwing chain, manual pipe slips, no crane or hyster for moving around mud weight, you put a 100 lb. sack on each shoulder and piss ant that shit up and down the stairs to the mixing tank. And when you were finished tripping pipe and you thought you could take a break you better go get you a bucket of water and rig wash and a long handled brush and start cleaning up all the mud and grease off of everything. Your 12 hour shift meant you worked for 11 1/2 hours if you could take a lunch break.
@@TBullCajunbreadmaker…forgot about picking ditches around rig at -25c, with no shirt on. So bloody hot from digging frozen dirt 2’ deep and one foot across. Plus all prefabs had to hand balm in -30c. Or tripping out -40c with artesian well. Slow.slow slow.
On my 5th day we tripped out a stand every 20 or 30 seconds with 2 of us lmfao, cowboy style. Keep the break out tong on and spin the table after you break the connection. Watch your shins!
Why does this look more simpler than the other videos I've seen like them boys up North. It's all doing the same thing I'm assuming? More newer, advanced technology?
I run either an old GD rd25t or a CP rt1800. Both of which are all twisting stem by hand and rotary table rigs. Tail out or in is done by hand meaning the only helper I have drags it out or guides it in by hand. We use 20' 4.5 inch 2-7/8 pin stem. They need an automated machine?! I'll take it lol
It pains me to see a rig trippin in without using a spinning chain or latching pipe on the run. So sad. No wonder the new millennial ruffnecks are so soft.😳...and btw, before the haters start...yes i know how to spell and ruffneck!!😝😂
Be sure to then use Correct machines like Turning Key to retrieve your oil and gas. For example pulling unit pump jack and battery tank. Make sure to use chemicals on these jobs and everything else it take tp finish job
This my friends appears to be a wiper trip. After they've drilled the hole, they pull all the pipe out of the hole and then run all the pipe in the hole and back out again. In this, they are running back in the hole after filling the well, once they hit bottom, they'll do it all over again pulling out.
I worked Ideco Full View, Lee C Moore, and Standard racking 20/row. My favorite were the Standard derricks. Rack the the pipe opposite from the table to the vdoor and with J racks. Could air horse up and jack L & R. Driller never dropped the clutch till the top of the block was at my monkey board.
Where modern part? Top drives around 1988. That rig was built late 70’s. Pipe spinner been around forever, almost as long as the chain. Maybe the hydraulic elevators little newer. The pipe 5”xh, not sure what is new from last 30 years? The pason (geolgraph, auto digger is 25 years old). Biggest difference is the Bit technology. Tri cone bit replaced with PDC diamondcutter bits. Maybe mud systems.
Don't wanna blow bottom out.Always want to keep hole displacing.Watching flow meter is very important.U lose circulation and it lost time and money( Driller could lose his job)
Never grease a pipe by the BOX to avoid drop objects 😊 Never seen this kind of elevator. Thanks for sharing. Why they are not using a back-up tong ? How they are applying the torque so Fast ? Is it just a RIH for circulation ?
You forgot to add that the spinning chain was way cooler, took way more skill, was easier, kept you on your toes, and was a hell of a lot more fun. That was 20 yrs ago, and it seems like it was illegal then, but not so much to warrant buying a decent pipe spinner, (plus we would break them on purpose because they sucked, and throwing a chain was just, well, you know!).
I am a mechanical tech working with BakerHughes a GE company. I do maintenance on down hole drilling tools. Such as Mud Motors Directional Drilling tools . I love working in the oil field.
Good work but the derrick hand needed to hold onto the pipe after he through it in to stabilize the stand for stabbing. That little bit of attention makes it so much easier for the floor hands to get the job done quickly and easily.

When searching for your well that has been done and processed through the oilfield industry. Your missing your well or a portion. Use insect on land and keep her him alive to guide you to your well that is there.
I worked for precision for almost a year and I have to say they have some damn fine equipment and hands that work their asses off everyday.

i watched this entire video and never saw a single stand in 1 min. look at video time from the time they stab into the stump.

I can latch it with my eyes closed nothing like when i worked derricks easy money now regular elevetors i love them. Anybody can work derricks now...
Mean elevator
Lol it’s been all times if you can pull a rope and open a sack you can be Derrick man
You know most rigs still have manual elevators right
Simply Orange
Everyone commenting how clean it it...yes a triple and running back in the hole, of course its clean

Why they are not using a back-up tong ?
How they are applying the torque so Fast ? Is it just a RIH for circulation ?
Cheating. However have enough bha buried. The weight will not turn pipe.
Moving
Is more manly and faster using the spinning chain

Overtime
why don't torqued the stand by the second tong
Good work but the derrick hand needed to hold onto the pipe after he through it in to stabilize the stand for stabbing. That little bit of attention makes it so much easier for the floor hands to get the job done quickly and easily.
