The Power catwalk V-door ramp provides a track and roller to support
and guide the trough as it moves. The V-door ramp is mounted on the end of
the catwalk with a hinged connection to allow the V-door ramp to fold onto the
catwalk for transportation.
With the trough kept lowered into the catwalk, the equipment can be used
as a conventional catwalk to raise and lower the tubulars.
1.4.3 Catwalk
Refer to the Catwalk, drawing DLMD013.01.00, and Fig #4.
The Power catwalk catwalk is the main body that supports/contains all of
the Power catwalk components. During rig up procedure, the catwalk is
positioned perpendicular to the drill floor and inline with well centre, the
catwalk must be completely level and well supported to ensure safe
operation.
The end of the catwalk is hinged with V-door ramp to provide support for
the V-door ramp, and there is steel rail inside, trolley can move along with the
steel rail.
Walking plate,indexers, pipe racks and pipe rack kickers are installed on
the catwalk.

1.4.4 Trough
Refer to the Trough, drawing DLMD013.06.00.
The trough is provided with roller at its front end, and its tail end is hinged
with the lift arm. With the pushing and pulling motion of the lift arm, the trough
is lifted or lowered along the V-door ramp. The trough is used for supporting
tubulars carrying pipe from the DP rack to wellhead on drill floor or carrying
and placing the pipe from the wellhead on the drill floor to the DP rack. Safety
pins and kickers are installed on the trough, the kickers can turn the pipe out
of the trough, the safety pins is used to prevent the drilling tool from leaving
the through. A hydraulic motor at front end of the trough drives the skate
forward and backward thereby pushing or pulling pipe forward and backward.
The safety pins are used to keep the tubulars safely contained in the
trough and to aid in loading the tubulars into the trough from the pipe racks.
There are two sets of safety pins contained within the trough – one set of four
on the driller’s side and one set of four on the off driller’s side.
The kickers are used to eject the tubulars off the trough onto the driller’s
or off driller’s side catwalk. There are two sets of kickers contained within the
trough – one set of four to eject a tubular towards the driller’s side pipe rack
and one set of four to eject a tubular towards the off driller’s side pipe rack.

DLMD013 User Manual
There are 4 pipe racks attached to the catwalk—two on the driller’s side
and two on the off driller’s side. The capacity of the pipe racks are as follows:
Dirll pipe capacity(each side)
capacity 32 24 19 18 17 15 14 13
capacity 24 21 19 18 16 15 14 14
capacity 12 12 11 11 11 10 9 9
capacity 8 8 8 8 7 6 5 4
One side of pipe racks are pinned on the catwalk and the other is
supported by the cylinders, each which hold a bearing pad against the ground.
If the cylinders are in extended position, gravity will result in the pipe’s
movement towards the catwalk. By retracting (lowering) the cylinders, the
pipe is delivered away from the catwalk.
During transport condition, the leg is folded and fixed to the side of the
catwalk to reduce the overall width of the catwalk machine.

Step 1 – The pipe rack and indexers load tubulars onto the trough,from
the pipe racks.
Step 2 – The trolley motor then pushes the trolley to move the trough up
the ramp. A roller is installed at the front end of the trough which rolls along
the guide to the V-door ramp, therefore, causing the trough to move upwards
along the V-door ramp.
Step 3 – After the trolley motor is in it’s end position, the lift arm cylinder
extends to carry the trough further up the ramp and towards the drill floor.
Step 4 – Tubulars are then extended to near well center by the skate to
complete the operation.

1.7 Maintenance
The power catwalk utilizes self-lubricated bearings. The bearings at lift
arm cylinder, lift arm and trough are specially made self-lubricating bearings
requiring no maintenance. The expected service life is 3.5 years, theoretically
calculated as operating system 8-hours every day, dependent upon actual
working conditions.It is recommended to check the bearings once annually.
Check the clearance between the inner and outer rings of bearing and for
abnormal sound as the bearings are rotated. When the clearance is 50%
larger than the initial clearance, or abnormal sound is noted, the bearing has
reached its service life and should be replaced immediately. If one bearing is
to be replaced, it is recommended to replace all three bearings at the same
time to ensure continued uninterrupted operability of the equipment.When
replacing the fixed pin, the swivel arm and the fixed pin of the pulley
connected to the rear of the drilling tool support beam, the retaining pins of the
drilling tool support beam and the swivel arm are removed and replaced
separately. Remove the fixing pin for connecting the tail of the trough with the
lift arm and the fixing pin for connecting the lift arm with the trolley during the
replacement, and replace the trough and the lift arm after lifted outside.
Periodic maintenance is important to ensure the equipment operates
smoothely and reliably. Periodic maintenance including regular inspections
can also identify problems or potential failures before they occur, avoiding
downtime, potential damage to equipment, injury to personnel and/or
environmental incidents. The equipment maintenance schedule is defined in
the following chart.

1. Confirm that the safety pin auto function switch is set to ON position.
2. Set the indexer pins in the proper socket so that the Indexer delivers one
tubular at a time.
NOTE The indexer should be able to catch more than half of the
tubular when resting against the indexer pins.
3. Confirming the tubular on the pipe rack, control the pipe rack to rise and
let the tubular roll to the indexer pin.
WARNING Ensure all personnel maintain a safe distance from the pipe
racks as they are adjusted. Do NOT rely solely on the
anti-rollback or indexer pins to protect personnel from rolling
tubular.
4. Ensure that the skate is backward to the initial position, so that the skate
is located behind the tubular, and prevent interference with the tubular.
56
DLMD013 User Manual
WARNING
The skate must be in a safe position which is clear of any
tubulars
before operating the indexers outer. It is the responsibility of
the operator to ensure the indexers outer do not send a tubular
into the side of the skate, because the initial location of the
tubular in pipe rack can not be detected by the system. A risk
that rolling tubular hits the skate exists.
5. Controlling the indexer outer turn the tubular over the indexer pin, the
opposite safety pins will automatically extend to prevent tubular rolling
out.
6. Release the indexer outer after the tubular is turned over the indexer pin,
and the indexer outer will retract automatically.
7. Ensure the tubular enters the trough, move skate contact with the tubular,
so that the tail of the tubular enters the skate completely.
9. Control the lift arm up and automatic deceleration and stop at the target
position by applying “AUTO IN” function.
10. Control the skate and push the end of the tubular to the elevators.
WARNING
Ensure all personnel maintain a safe distance from the
trough when the skate pushes tubulars.

13. The catwalk can be operated back to its initial position by applying “AUTO
OUT” function to prepare for the next cycle of loading.
1. Lower the pipe rack to ensure that the tubulars can roll sideways.
WARNING
Ensure all personnel maintain a safe distance from the pipe
racks as they are adjusted. Do NOT rely solely on the
anti-rollback or indexer pins to protect personnel from rolling
tubulars.
3. Control the trolley, the lift arm and the skate to the appropriate position
and prepare to catch the tubulars on drill floor.

6. Push the end of the tubular over the end of the trough.
10. If the tubular sticks to the trough and does not slide with the skate, the
angle can be increased by controlling the distance of the lift arm until
the tubular begins to slide.
WARNING
Ensure all personnel maintain a safe distance from the end of
the tubular as it slides down to the end of the trough.
11. Lower the lift arm to a low position, then trolley move back to initial
position by applying “AUTO OUT” function, while the safety pins
automatically retracts.
13. Control the kicker to roll the tubular out of the trough and to the pipe
rack.
If the tubular does not roll into the pipe rack, control the indexer inner
raise to send the tubular as well.

During the operation, if some sensor fails, the interlock related to the sensor
is affected, which may cause the catwalk working not properly even shut down.
For non-stop working consideration, it is possible to bypass the damaged sensor
then continue the operation.
Please NOTICE that the trolley/skate encoder and lift arm displacement
sensor relations to equipment operation safety seriously is not allowed to bypass!
68
DLMD013 User Manual
WARNING
After the sensor is bypassed, the interlock failure associated
with the sensor exists certain risks in operation, so the bypass
operation should be very cautious and cancel the bypass once
the sensor is fixed up.
