Lifting and transport

WARNING: Lift the BVC Elevator on the
lifting ears only.

WARNING: Wear your personal protection

equipment at all times.

Installation of Elevator
Remove the link block bolts and allow the
link block assembly to swing open. Place
the links in the now opened elevator ears,
and secure the link block by replacing the
removed bolts and safety springs.

WARNING: Keep distance from the elevator

during operation and trials.
INSTALLATION

(De)-installation of Slips
A set of slips consists of 3 parts. To equip
the elevator with the required slip, the
elevator must be open. Before installing a
new slip, the seating area in the elevator
must be cleaned and lubricated.

1. First put in the springs.

2. Fit the slip segment on top of the
spring.
3. The spring will be compressed and
easily slide in the Elevator.
4. Fix the slip segments with the screw
and check if they are properly
tightened.
5. Install the safety wire to secure the
screws.

WARNING: The BVC elevator shall never be

used without slip segments.

16
Installation Checklist BVC Elevator
Basically the Elevator has to be installed as shown in the manual.

OK o Make sure the required slips are installed before first use.

OK o Make sure the slips are fixed with the screws.

OK o Make sure the required guide plates are installed.

 4. OPERATIONS

Operations
Open the door by using the latch lock and pulling it outward. This releases the latch
and latch lock assembly so the elevator can be positioned on the pipe. When the
elevator is properly closed around the pipe, the latch locks automatically.
The slips of the BVC elevators will set when the elevator is raised against the tool
joint, which pushes down on the slip-setting ring.
The latch spring is designed to latch the elevator and hold it closed under normal
operating conditions.
The latch lock provides additional security and assures the latch will remain closed
under normal loading conditions.

WARNING: Be sure to use handles provided for opening, closing and handling the elevator.
Keep hands away from all areas when the elevator is in use.

WARNING: Check the latch and latch lock for full engagement when closed around the pipe.

WARNING: When utilizing slip type elevators to lift tubulars the driller should slowly lift
the elevator until the slip setting ring has engaged the coupling of the tool joint and the
slips are fully set. R apid lifting prior to the slips being fully set may result in the pipe collar
dropping onto the slip setting ring, resulting in the full weight of the pipe stand impacting the
elevator. This may result in damaging the elevator and could result in pipe being dropped, thus
causing injury to rig personnel and damage to other equipment.

WARNING: Make sure all slip segments are free in the up position when latching the elevator.
If any of the segments are stuck in the down position, the elevator may not close properly.
OPERATIONS

WARNING: Make sure the elevator and slip bodies are used with the correct size tubular (per
API specification).Oversized pipe will cause difficulties such as latching partially or not at all.
Undersized or oversized pipe could cause uneven stress distribution, inadequate load-bearing
area, and possible wedging in the slip setting ring.

Operation MU (make up)

1. Pick up a section of pipe.
2. Now make up the stand or joint.
3. When the pipe is made up, pick up the load and open the (spider)-slips.
4. Now lower the string.
5. Pick up the weight of the pipe string with the slips, before opening the BVC
elevator.
6. Open the BVC Elevator and pick up a new section of pipe.

Operation BO (break out)

1. Pick up the string with the elevator. The BVC Elevator is closed when the latch is
closed.
2. Raise the (spider)-slips.
3. Pull out the string.
4. Set the (spider)-slips.
5. Release the string weight from the BVC Elevator.
6. Now BO the stand or joint.
7. When the pipe is BO, pick up the stand and handle.

 5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

General
If cracks, excessive wear etc. is recognised, contact Blohm + Voss Repair GmbH
or an authorised service company.
Weldings of the castings should be done only by Blohm + Voss Repair GmbH or an
authorised service company in according to Blohm+Voss welding procedure.

A regular preventative maintenance program should be established for all

elevators. These written maintenance procedures should be given to the crew or
maintenance personnel.

Daily lubrication
Grease point 1: Hinge Pin
Grease point 2: Latch Pin
Grease point 3: Back of slips
Grease point 4: Springs

Daily Inspection
Inspect visually:
• Latch Opening Arrangement.
• Presence of all bolts, nuts, safety elements, lock wire.

Daily Test
Function the elevator daily. If any damage or malfunction were found, take the
elevator out of service for repair.

Locking of screws
All Screws are normally secured by a mechanical bolt lock or with a safety wire.
All other screws are secured by metal adhesive (Locktite). Ensure the correct
retention method is applied.

Grease quality
MAINTENANCE
& INSPECTION

In order to achieve efficient greasing even at different environmental

temperatures, we recommend the following grease types should be used
(obtainable from Blohm + Voss Repair GmbH):
• Low-Viscosity grease Type AVIATICON Grease XRF.

Alternatively; use EP gear lubricating grease for greasing ”non-oil tight gear
trains”
Temperature range:
• EP1 when temperature < 0°C/32°F
• EP2 when temperature > 0°C/32°F.

22
Inspection categories acc. to API RP 8B
Category I
This category involves observing
the equipment during operation for
indications of inadequate performance.
When in use, equipment shall be
visually inspected on a daily basis
for cracks, loose fits or connections,
elongation of part, and other signs of
wear, corrosion or overloading. Any
parts found to show cracks, excessive
wear, etc., shall be removed from
service for further examination.
The equipment shall be visually
inspected by a person knowledgeable
in that equipment and its function.
Category II
This is Category I inspection plus
further inspection for corrosion,
deformation, loose or missing
components, deterioration, proper
lubrication, visible external cracks, and
adjustment.
Category II may involve some
disassembly to access specific
components and to identify wear that
exceeds the allowable tolerances.
Category III
This is Category II inspection plus
further inspection, which should include
NDT of critical areas and may involve
some disassembly to access specific
components and to identify wear that
exceeds the allowable tolerances.
Prior to inspection, all foreign material
such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale,
etc. shall be removed from the
concerned parts by a suitable method
(e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning,
grit-blasting).
Category IV
This is Category III inspection plus
further inspection for which the
equipment is disassembled to the
extent necessary to conduct NDT of all
primary-load-carrying components.
Equipment shall be: Non-periodic inspection

• regulatory requirements
• operating time
• testing
• repairs

 Critical Load Inspection
Critical loads may occur. For example:
impact loads such as jarring, pulling on
stuck pipe, etc. If critical loads occurred
unexpectedly, conduct the inspection
immediately.

Dismantling Inspection
Generally, when the equipment returns
to base, warehouse, etc. Carry out
the Tool inspection, immediately.
Furthermore, control it prior to its being
sent on the next job.
• The Tool should be dismantled and
inspected in a suitably equipped
facility for excessive wear, cracks,
flaws or deformations.
• Corrections should be made in
accordance with recommendations
which can be obtained from Blohm
+ Voss Repair GmbH.
• Weldings at the castings should be
done only by Blohm + Voss Repair
GmbH or an authorized service
company in according to Blohm +
Voss welding procedure.
• When need is shown in a field
inspection, dismantle the Tool and
arrange an inspection in a suitably
equipped facility.
• Springs should be carefully visually
inspected for excessive wear and
obvious weakness.

Measuring of wear
To measure link ears it is necessary to
use calipers and a ruler.
Significant wear is restricted to
the top link ear, it is here that the
measurement is taken.
Hinge Pins, Latch Pins and socket
holes are not normally measured for
wear in the field. When it becomes
apparent that the Hinge or Latch Pins
have more tolerances, the elevator
should be dismantled for general
engineering check up.

Remanufacturing
MAINTENANCE
& INSPECTION

Remanufacturing and repair of critical

areas or load bearing parts must be
done only by B+V or a B+V authorized
service company.
Also minor cracks or defects, which
may be removed by grinding without
reducing safety or operation of the
