⚫ Before the installation of pipeline, compressed air shall be used to clean the
pipeline. And the pipeline cannot be connected until all dirty things are cleared.
Processing of pneumatic component failure
When the pneumatic control component is found to be in fault or malfunction, the
valve shall not be disassembled casually. The reason for the failure is not always the
valve element itself, which may be due to the blockage of the air pipeline or the low
pressure. In case of this problem, do not disassemble the pneumatic control
component. The processing method is to determine the position of the fault with
reference to the pneumatic control principle diagram first, and then to separately check
(check the control air circuit, open the air joint in section, and check the ventilation). If
the control air circuit is clear, check the working air circuit again. Disengage the
hydraulic pipeline of the valve to check the ventilation condition, if blocked, check the
intake pipeline of the valve, and if the air pipeline is clean, it is proved that there is a
problem in the valve part before opening the valve part for maintenance. In general,
the spare valve shall be used to replace the defective valve, and then check the
defected valve, so as to ensure normal drilling operation.
Maintain entire air system after the driller has completed on a well or after a
certain period (no more than 3 months) and check the damageable members. Make
sure you replace or clean them in time to avoid operation under improper state.
Refer to its Maintenance Manual

2.4 Hydraulic System

2.4.1 Items to be Checked by Each Shift

➢ Check whether each hydraulic pump of hydraulic power unit and disc brake
power unit works normally, the oil level of the oil tank is satisfactory, the oil
filter is blocked, the oil leakage is free, or the accumulator operation is
normal. Oil temperature and pressure shall be within normal operating range.
➢ Check whether all hydraulic pipelines of the wellhead mechanical tools

6
and the hydraulic disc brake has any oil leakage or not, check whether the
pipelines are smooth or not and check whether the displays of all pressure
gauges are in good condition or not.
2.4.2 Weekly Maintenance and Inspection Items
➢ Check whether the nitrogen charging pressure of the disc brake HPU’s
accumulator can meet the requirement or not.
➢ Check whether the oil level of the oil tank is satisfactory, the oil quality is
clean, or the filter element of the oil filter is clean. If the screen is damaged
and the dirt accumulates, replace it in time and replace the hydraulic oil if
necessary.
2.4.3 Monthly Maintenance and Inspection Items
➢ Clean the element of the oil filter.
➢ Supplement the nitrogen for the disc brake HPU’s accumulator so that it can
meet the requirement of the nitrogen charging pressure.
➢ Check all valves and the pipelines.

Select the appropriate hydraulic oil


Hydraulic oil plays a role of pressure transmission, lubrication, cooling and sealing
in the hydraulic oil system. The improper selection of hydraulic oil is the main reason
for the early failure and declining durability of hydraulic system. The hydraulic oil shall
be selected according to the brands specified in the Operation Manual. In case of the
necessity to use alternative oil, the performance of which shall be the same as that of
original brand. Hydraulic oil different grades can not be mixed in order to avoid
chemical reaction and changes in performance. If the oil is dark brown, milky white
with strange smell, it is deteriorated and cannot be used.
Prevent hydraulic system from solid impurities
Clean hydraulic oil is the life of hydraulic system. There are many precise fittings in
the hydraulic system, some of which are provided with damping holes or slots. Solid
impurities could give rise to pulling of the precision matching part, unsmoothness of
the valve, blockage of the oil passage, and endanger the safe operation of the
hydraulic system. In general, the way of solid material invasion is: dirty hydraulic oil;
dirty oil filling tool; careless oil filling and maintenance, desquamation of hydraulic
7
element. The system can be prevented from solid impurities by the following
measures:
a. During filling, the hydraulic oil must be filtered and the filling tool shall be
reliably cleaned. The filter at the oil filling port of the hydraulic oil tank shall not be
removed just to increase the oil filling speed. When the hydraulic station is equipped
with oil pump, priority shall be given to it. When the hydraulic station has no oil pump,
the hydraulic oil shall be filled by the oil trolley with filter. The fuel personnel shall wear
clean gloves and work clothes.
b. Remove the filler cap, filter cover, detection hole, hydraulic oil pipe of the
hydraulic oil tank during maintenance. Avoid the dust when the oil passage of the
hydraulic system is exposed. The removal part shall be cleaned thoroughly before
opening. When to remove the oil tank filler cap, remove the soil around the tank cover
first, loosen the oil tank cover and remove the debris remaining at the joint position
(not to flush with water to prevent water from penetrating into the tank), and open the
tank cap after cleaning. If it is necessary to use wiping materials and iron hammer,
choose the wiping materials without fiber impurities and the special hammer with
rubber on its striking face. Hydraulic components and hydraulic hose shall be carefully
cleaned and assembled when dried by high-pressure wind. Select the properly
packaged genuine filter element (if the package is damaged, the filter element may not
be clean even the filter core is intact). When changing oil, clean the filter at the same
time and clean the inside of the filter housing carefully before installing the filter
element.
c. The cleaning oil of the hydraulic system must use the same brand of hydraulic
oil as that used for the system, the oil temperature is between 45 ~ 80℃, and the
impurities in the system shall be taken away as much as possible by the large flow.
The hydraulic system shall be cleaned more than three times, and the system shall be
discharged completely when the oil is still hot after each cleaning. After cleaning, clean
the filter, replace the new filter element and add new oil.
d. Each joint and pipeline shall be bound after disassembled, and the quick joint
shall be provided with appropriate protection cover and cap to prevent dust from

8
entering the system.
Prevent hydraulic system from air:
Hydraulic oil contains air with volume ratio of about 6% to 8% under normal
pressure and temperature, the air will be free from the oil when the pressure is
reduced, and the burst of air bubble could cause cavitation to hydraulic element and
generate noise. If a large amount of air entered the oil fluid, the cavitation could be
intensified, and the compaction index of hydraulic oil could be increased, which could
bring up some negative effects, such as reduced working efficiency and crawl of the
executing element. In addition, the air could oxidize the hydraulic oil and accelerate its
deterioration. Emphasis shall be laid on the following points to prevent air:
a. Exhaust the air in the system after repairing and oil-changing.
b. The suction pipe port of the hydraulic oil pump shall not exceed the oil level, and
must be sealed well.
c. The oil pump drive shaft shall be sealed well and the original oil seal shall be
used for replacing the oil seal.
Prevent hydraulic system from water
Too much water in hydraulic system could rust hydraulic element, deteriorate and
emulsify oil fluid, reduce lubrication oil intensify, and accelerate machine wear. In
addition to preventing water intrusion during maintenance, attention shall be paid to
tightening the cover when the oil storage tank is not used, and put it upside down
appropriately; the hydraulic oil with much water shall be filtered multiple times, and the
dried filter paper shall be replaced once every filtering. When no special instrument is
used to detect, the hydraulic oil can be dripped onto the hot iron plate, only if there is
no steam and the oil starts to fire immediately can the system be filled.
Refer to its Maintenance Manual

2.5 High Pressure Mud System

2.5.1 Items to be Checked by Each Shift


➢ Check the working conditions of the mud pumps’ power ends.
➢ Check the suction performance of the mud pumps’ fluid ends and the
sealing, cooling and lubrication conditions of the pistons, liners and the
9
extension rods and so on.
➢ Check the working conditions of the charging pumps and the spraying
pumps.
➢ Check whether the pulsation dampeners’ nitrogen charging pressure and
the relief valves can meet the requirements or not.
➢ Check the conditions of the high pressure manifold’s fixing and the high
pressure valves’ open and close and so on.
➢ Check the pressing reliability of the mud pumps’ cylinder bonnets and
valve bonnets.
➢ Adjust the rate of tension of the transmission belts.
2.5.2 Weekly Maintenance and Inspection Items
➢ Check and clean the lubricating oil filters.
➢ Check the lubrication for the crossheads and the guide plates.
➢ Check the flexibility of the relief valves’ action.
2.5.3 Monthly Maintenance and Inspection Items
➢ Check the clearance of gears and crossheads of the mud pumps’ power
ends.
➢ Tighten the bolts of the mud pumps and clean the oil sump.
Operation and lubrication of the equipment
Proper Operation and maintenance of the equipment is important to ensure the
normal operation and improve the service life. Users shall carefully read the
maintenance manual and the attached data before using the pump set.
Regularly check the tightness of the belt, adjust the lead screw on the
substructure to tension the belt; the belt if cannot be tensioned shall be replaced with a
new one; regularly check whether the motor, filling pump, spraying pump work properly
and the line and pipe are properly connected; regularly check the inflation volume of
the pneumatic tire union, and regularly and quantitatively inflate it according to its
maintenance manual; regularly check whether the union and pump connecting bolts of
the outlet elbow assembly are connected firmly, ensure all connections are properly
made and pump set works normally.
Before and after start-up, check whether the oil supply of each lubricating point is
normal, if the lubrication is insufficient or the oil is deteriorated, fill and replace it in time.
Refer to the drilling data plate for detailed oil products.
Refer to its Maintenance Manual

2.6 Usage and Maintenance for Drilling Line

2.6.1 Matters to Be Noted while Moving the Drilling Line


➢ When the drilling line reeled on the drum is to be moved with tension or hoisting
chain, the wood block must be placed between the hoisting and the drilling line to
prevent the drilling line from being damaged or to avoid the deformation of the drilling
line’s strand.
➢ The bar for moving the drum should be pushed on the flange of the drum instead
of on the drilling line.
➢ The drum should not pass or be placed on any hard or sharp object.
➢ Do not push down the drum from the truck or the high platform.
➢ The drum should not pass or be left on any medium which is harmful to the steel
such as the sludge or the mud residue and so on.
➢ While the drilling line is reeled off from the drum, the method of limiting the
drum’s movement can be adopted to ensure the drilling line is at the tension state.
➢ While the drilling line is reeled on the drum, adequate pull should be kept on the
drilling line to ensure the drilling line can be properly reeled.

2.6.2 Matters to Be Noted during Usage of Drilling Line

➢ If it is possible, the new drilling line, after being installed, should be operated with
controlled load and speed for short time, thus it is helpful for the drilling line to reach
the working state.
➢ The drilling line should not be twisted.
➢ The drilling line should not be knocked with any tool such as the hammer, axe or
bar etc. which may result in unnecessary crack or damage. Therefore, when it is
required to connect the drilling line, special attention should be paid during the
operation and the wood block should be placed between the drilling line and the
hammer.
➢ If the drilling line is covered with dirt or grit, it should be cleaned with brush. Using
solvent may damage the drilling line.
➢ When the drilling line is reeled on the drum, the tight and uniform state should be
kept.
➢ The quick change of load and the height of working speed are much related to
the service life of the drilling line.

11
➢ In the process of using the drilling line, it should be periodically lubricated. When
it is necessary, the high quality lubricating oil should be adopted to lubricate the drilling
line, and it should percolate through and adhere to the drilling line and should not
contain any acid and alkali.
➢ During the operation, pay attention to the abrasion conditions of the sheaves and
the drum grooves because the abraded sheaves and the drum grooves may result in
the excessive abrasion of the drilling line.
➢ From the point view of the service life of the drilling line, the condition and shape
of the sheave groove is very important and they should be periodically checked. The
sheave groove’s radius should not be lower than the value specified in Table 1,
otherwise it may reduce the service life of the drilling line. The repaired sheave groove
should meet the requirement of the recommended radius for the new sheave as
specified in Table 1.
