PROCESS OPERATIONS OF CASINGS RECEIVING INSPECTION UNIT:

BREAKING PIECES REMOVAL

Breaking pieces removing from casing threaded elements and cleaning the threads from grease are produced for preparation to subsequent visual input and instrumental inspection by gauges. To facilitate breaking pieces loosening was developed service tools.

THREAD CONSERVATION AND BREAKING PIECES INSTALLATION

Before sending the casing into the cradles of finished products, preservation grease is applied on a pin thread and breaking pieces are installed.

CASINGS DISTRIBUTION TO THE CRADLES

Casings are distributed automatically to the cradles in accordance with a predetermined program.

CASINGS PREOPERATIONAL PHASE

Casing preoperational phase is carried out in accordance with the oil company. requirement. Required pipe number selection is produced, sorting them by typical size and storage in separate batches on the column sections.
