Hoisting Systems
Drawworks
Large drum where drill line is wrapped
16
Rotary Systems
Swivel
Connects traveling block to drill string
Allows fluids to be pumped down the
drill string
Allows the drill string to rotate
Kelly
Square or Hexagon shaped pipe
connected between swivel and drill pipe
Fits into bushing
Bushing
Torque is transferred to Kelly by
bushing from the table
Rotary Table
Transfers torque generated by engine
Suspends the pipe during connections
and trip
17
Rotary Systems
Top Drive
Instead of table, bushing and Kelly
the torque is generated by the top
drive
18
Circulation Systems

Well Control
Common Causes of Kicks
Insufficient mud density
Poor cementing operation
Lost Circulation
Abnormal Temperature and pressure
Excessive drilling rate
Inadequate BOP & poor casing design
Trapped gas below BOP
Water flushes
Failure to maintain back pressure while
underbalance drilling.
