Comprehensive Tubular Running
Operators today require streamlined processes and precise
Introduction
product and service delivery.

Tubular handling is one of the largest contributors to well costs. Tripping
drillpipe or running casing and tubing accounts for more than 30 percent
of well construction time. Insufficient tubular makeup can lead to potential
well integrity issues that result in additional time-consuming work and
expenses. The right tubular running partner is critical to help you achieve
lower operating costs, faster running speeds, and required torque without
compromising safety and integrity.

Introduction
a better well. Our services go beyond the scope of conventional tubular
running to ensure flexible, value-added services that make no compromise
on personnel safety or tubular integrity—even in the most challenging
operating environments.
Streamlined Tubular Programs

Reduce running times and costs with rig-ready pipe.
Every minute of rig time has value. Weatherford delivers more efficient,
cost-effective programs for tubular preparation and management before
running pipe at the wellsite. Our tubular management services minimize flat
time by moving makeup operations off the critical path. The same crews
who run your pipe also prepare, inspect, and makeup 30 to 50 percent of
connections in parallel to well-center activity.
This offline work minimizes the risk of connection failure and the associated
costs for well repairs. And our exacting standards ensure the protection and
performance of these tubular connections, which results in production-string
integrity for the life of the well.
Well Integrity
Create secure barriers by making the right connections.
Approximately 90 percent of recorded pipe failures occur at the connection.
Our torque-monitoring systems ensure that your connections perform as
secure mechanical barriers against formation pressures for the life of the
well. The field-proven systems deliver precise torqueing for all connections,
including standard, metal-to-metal seal, and premium connections—to
prevent costly and catastrophic leaks.
Using real-time data, our technicians monitor makeups for acceptance and
accuracy. Configurable data reports, such as torque-over turns and speed-
over turns, facilitate troubleshooting and resolving issues for uninterrupted
operations.
Safety and Efficiency

Achieve safety and productivity goals using hands-free
rig technologies.
Distancing workers from the critical path creates a safer work environment
and a more efficient rig. By investing in decades of research and
development, we have mechanized the rig floor and eliminated manual
handling. Our automated equipment offers remote-control capabilities that
limit risk exposure. This equipment also facilitates offline pipe makeup for
the delivery of double or triple tubular stands to the rig.
A key component of our tubular management services, these mechanized
rig units are available in various sizes and torque capabilities with footprints
suited for workshops or the wellsite.

21-300 Riser Tong
Power Tongs
Mechanized
The Weatherford 21-300 riser tong represents a quantum leap in tong
technology because today’s production riser connectors require makeup
torques that exceed the capability of conventional tongs. More importantly,
the makeup procedure calls for continuous rotation throughout the makeup
cycle. The Weatherford 21-300 riser tong is the only tong capable of
producing 300,000 ft-lb (406,746 N•m) of continuous rotational torque in
both makeup and breakout mode. This unsurpassed power is achieved in
a compact size, comparable to a conventional 24-in. casing tong, which
enables rig up of the 21-300 riser tong using conventional procedures without
modifications to the rig.
The tong is capable of fully mechanized remote operation or semimechanized
operation and is compatible with the patented* Weatherford PowerFrame®
and PowerScope® tong-positioning systems.
Applications
• All production riser installations up to a 21-in. OD
• Combined riser/casing installations in open hole
• Riser make/break testing and qualification programs
• Full rotation at maximum torque in both makeup and breakout modes
increases operational efficiency.
• Compatibility with the Weatherford JAMCompact™ system enables
automatic control of delta turns and delta torque for increased efficiency.
• One-man tong operation enhances safety.
• The unique three-motor design distributes forces evenly around the
gear ring. This reduces the required size and weight of the tong and
improves gripping effectiveness to decrease the risk of damage and lower
repair costs.
• The hydraulic three-jaw gripping system provides extremely high
torque capability and distributes gripping forces over a much larger area.
This reduces the potential for connection damage and the associated
repair costs.
• The patented free-floating integral backup design virtually eliminates
shearing and bending when making up or breaking out connections. That
reduces casing deformation which can affect long-term wellbore integrity.
Integral backup can also adjust to the extremely short gripping areas of
some riser connections, increasing the versatility of the tong.

actuator module and exchangeable clamping modules for a wide range
of casing sizes. It provides outstanding performance in demanding
applications, such as running long, heavy strings and making up high-

torque connections. It is well suited for drilling or reaming with casing and
System Services
for challenging well applications.

Mounted on the top drive and operated remotely, the TorkDrive Modular
tool uses the rotational power of the top drive to make up casing. This
configuration eliminates scaffolding, equipment, and personnel typically
needed on the rig floor to run casing.
The TorkDrive Modular tool can interface with any top-drive system. It can
be installed quickly, without modifications, to the top drive or rig structure
and can be used to circulate, push down, reciprocate, and rotate the
casing string.
The suite of Weatherford TorkDrive tools also includes the TorkDrive
Heavy-Duty, TorkDrive DT, TorkDrive Electronic Modular, and TorkDrive
Compact casing-running and drilling tools.
Applications
The TorkDrive Modular tool is designed for running and pulling casing,
reaming with casing, and drilling with casing in a wide range of
applications:
• Tapered strings
• Deepwater wells
• Deep wells
External clamping tool
• Extended-reach and deviated wells
• Troublesome wells
• The TorkDrive Modular tool can be used to push down or reciprocate,
circulate, and rotate casing during casing-running operations and drilling-
with-casing (DwC™) or reaming-with-casing (RwC™) operations. The tool
reduces the possibility of differential sticking and other problems that can
lead to nonproductive time.
• The tool enhances rig-floor safety by replacing conventional tongs,
elevators, and related personnel. Remotely operated bails eliminate the
need for a stabber in the derrick.


• The tool has the flexibility of fast exchange between
clamping modules. An external clamping module handles
4 1/2- to 10 3/4-in. tubulars; three internal clamping modules
handle 9 5/8- to 22-in. casing.
• The modular design accelerates and simplifies rigging up
and exchanging the clamping modules. The separate actuator
and clamping modules reduce individual component size and
weights on smaller rigs and increase efficiency when running
tapered casing strings.
• The fill-up tool design enables switching between fill-up
and circulation without repositioning the tool, which
enhances operational efficiency.

• A sliding sleeve mechanism enables venting during
Top-Drive Casing
System Services
casing string fill-up to eliminate pressure buildup and
sudden release of compressed air as the tool is removed
from the casing.
• The flowback feature of the mud-saver valve allows for
automatic switching between fill-up and flowback modes,
which saves time by eliminating the need to remove the
mud-saver valve or reposition the tool.
• The internal full-bore design allows for high‑volume circulation
while running casing or drilling, as well as for drilling-fluid
recovery in tight‑tolerance casing-string designs.
• The integral compensator design prevents thread damage by
neutralizing tool and joint weight during makeup or breakout
and enables fast positioning of the tool over successive
joints for maximum efficiency. The long compensation stroke
facilitates instant switching between makeup and breakout Internal clamping tools
without repositioning the tool.
• Multiple safety interlocks that prevent dropped strings enhance safety.
• The patented external clamping system evenly distributes and maintains gripping force during rotation,
reciprocation, and push-down operations to enable running longer, heavier strings at high-circulating pressures
and minimize the potential for pipe damage.
• The capability of hoisting with the top-drive connection rather than with the elevator bails (links) enables rotational
speeds up to 100 rpm for more efficient makeup cycles and DwC operations.
• A variety of torque-reaction-bracket designs adapt to any rig structure for faster operational response.
• Integral torque/turn monitoring capabilities are completely independent of the top-drive control system and facilitate
safe, efficient troubleshooting:
–– The TorkSub™ electronic load cell provides accurate measurements of the applied torque and string weight to
indicate string sticking.
–– A high‑resolution turns sensor monitors turns/rpm during makeup, which enables response to inadequate or
excessive torque.
–– Both the TorkSub load cell and turns sensor are ATEX certified for use in hazardous environments, which
eliminates the potential for gas ignition.
• The tool is used with Weatherford TorkPro™ software to display torque data and enable monitoring of dynamic
forces that could affect connection makeup.

TorkDrive™ DT
TorkDrive tools are the primary components of the Weatherford OverDrive™

system, which provides a safer, more efficient alternative to conventional
casing installation. Each TorkDrive tool is a combination of several
conventional casing-running tools―the power tong, elevator, fill-up/
circulation tool, and weight compensator.
The TorkDrive DT tool for land rigs is well suited for drilling or reaming with
casing and for challenging well applications. It can be used to circulate,

push down, reciprocate, and rotate the casing string. It also provides real-

System Services
time drilling-hazard mitigation and is a better alternative than conventional
casing spears for drilling-with-casing (DwC™) applications. Its reduced
footprint makes the TorkDrive DT tool the best choice for casing running in
small and Super Single® rigs.
Mounted on the top drive and operated remotely, the TorkDrive DT tool uses
the rotational power of the top drive to make up casing. This configuration
eliminates scaffolding, equipment, and personnel typically needed on the
rig floor to run casing. The tool is capable of interfacing with any top-drive
system and can be installed quickly, without modifications, to the top drive
or rig structure.
External clamping tool (DTE)
The Weatherford TorkDrive suite includes the TorkDrive Heavy-Duty,
TorkDrive Compact, TorkDrive Electronic Modular, and TorkDrive Modular
casing-running and drilling tools.
Applications
The TorkDrive DT tool is designed for running and pulling casing, reaming with
casing, and drilling with casing in a wide range of applications:
• Super Single rigs
• Small land rigs
• Slant rigs
Internal clamping tool (DTI)

• The TorkDrive DT tool can be used to push down or reciprocate, circulate, and rotate casing during casing-running
operations and DwC or reaming-with-casing (RwC™) operations. The tool reduces the possibility of differential
sticking and other problems that can lead to nonproductive time.
• The tool enhances rig-floor safety by replacing conventional tongs, elevators, and related personnel. Remotely
operated bails eliminate the need for a stabber in the derrick.
• The fill-up tool design enables fill-up and circulation without repositioning the tool, which enhances
• The internal full-bore design allows for high-volume circulation while running casing or drilling, as well as for
drilling-fluid recovery in tight-tolerance casing-string designs.
• The reduced dimensions and weight of the tool facilitate handling, rig up, rig down, and on-site maintenance.
Top-Drive Casing
• Availability of two housing options makes the tool adaptable to a wide range of land rigs, including standard, Super
System Services
Single, and slant rigs.

• The swivel torque of the tool can be transferred to the top-drive pipe handler rather than the top-drive rails. This
feature simplifies the installation, thus enhancing operational safety and rig-up and rig-down efficiency.
• A two-lever actuation feature enhances safety by preventing inadvertent opening of the tool and dropped objects.

conventional casing-running tools―the power tong, elevator, fill-up/circulation
tool, and weight compensator.
The TorkDrive Electronic Modular (EM) tool for offshore operations is well
suited for drilling or reaming with casing and for challenging well applications.
It can be used to circulate, push down, reciprocate, and rotate the casing
string while providing up to 80,000 ft-lb (108,465 N•m) of torque.
Top-Drive Casing
System Services
The tool has an electronic control system that directly integrates with existing
rig control systems to enable wireless operation from the driller’s cabin. It has
exchangeable clamping modules to accommodate a range of pipe sizes: An
external clamping module handles 4 1/2- to 10 3/4-in. tubulars; three internal
clamping modules handle 9 5/8- to 22-in. casing.
Mounted on the top drive and operated remotely, the TorkDrive EM tool uses
the rotational power of the top drive to make up casing. This configuration
eliminates scaffolding, equipment, and personnel typically needed on the rig

Top-Drive Rotating Cementing Head
and OverDrive™ System Combo
The Weatherford top-drive rotating cementing head and OverDrive system

combo allows cement to be pumped while the casing string is reciprocated
OverDrive system and rotated. This optimizes cement placement in the wellbore to improve
zonal isolation. The top-drive tool combination enhances safety by reducing
the manual handling of equipment. It increases efficiency by minimizing
downtime when transitioning from casing‑running to cementing operations.
Applications
• Installing casing strings landed at surface, on land, and on offshore rigs
Top-Drive Casing
System Services
• Cementing tieback casing strings

• The top-drive technology permits rotation and reciprocation of the casing
string as cement is pumped, which increases the effectiveness of the
Pup joint cement job and the isolation of producing zones.
• The integrated cementing head eliminates the rig up of a conventional
cementing head, which saves time and reduces the risk of stuck casing.
Safety is also enhanced by removing the personnel required on the rig floor
to manually exchange equipment.
• Configurable casing adapters with Sure Lock® connections fit any casing
size and connection. The adapters withstand full rotational and tensile
torque up to the casing-connection capacity of 70,000 ft-lb (94,907 N•m).
Crossover
• The full-bore cementing head does not limit flow rates through the top drive
while circulating. This permits optimal flow rates to condition the hole prior
to cementing and produces a better bond.
• When cementing tieback casing strings, the capability of taking fluid returns
through the cementing head and subsequently through the top drive saves
time and eliminates the need to replace equipment during critical points
of the cementing operation.

Defyer™ DPA Series
The Weatherford Defyer DPA is a drillable casing bit designed for drilling
with casing in medium to medium-hard formations. The DPA series is ideal
for high-temperature environments and is rated to 400°F (204°C).
The innovative design of the DPA series includes a selectable blade count
and configurable cutter size to suit the formation type and application. The
nose is made of aluminum, and the blades are made of a special steel alloy.
Polycrystalline‑diamond‑compact (PDC) cutters are optimally mounted on
the face of the tool to maximize drilling efficiency and durability.
Defyer DPA bits can be drilled out with any standard oilfield drill bit.
Depending on its DPA central blade count and PDC cutter size, a Defyer
DPA bit can be drilled out using a PDC drill bit without sacrificing drillout-bit
durability. A range of interchangeable nozzles is available to ensure optimal
hydraulics, bit cleaning, and drilling performance. It is simple to remove the
nozzles and replace them at the drillsite with Weatherford patented drillable
nozzles in either copper or erosion‑resistant ceramic variants.
Applications
• Drilling with casing in medium to medium-hard formations
• Drilling with casing or liner over short sections in hard formations
• Drilling or reaming in conductor or intermediate casing strings
• Extending the hole length by reaming liner or casing to bottom and drilling

Defyer™ DPC Series
The Weatherford Defyer DPC is a premium drillable casing bit designed for
drilling with casing in medium to medium-hard formations that have confined
compressive strengths of up to 15,000 psi (103.4 MPa).
The innovative design of the DPC series includes steel and polycrystalline-
diamond-compact (PDC) blades coated with a thin layer of tungsten carbide
that resists erosion and abrasion during drilling. The PDC blades are optimally
mounted on the face of the tool to maximize drilling efficiency and durability.
The DPC series also includes a pressure-cycled PDC drillable piston. After
total depth is reached, that piston displaces the PDC blades into the annulus.
Defyer DPC bits can be drilled out with any standard oilfield drill bit without
compromising the cutting structure. The erosion-resistant ceramic nozzles
include extension tubes to mitigate erosion damage on the inside of the
aluminum nose. A range of interchangeable, drillable nozzles is available to
ensure optimal hydraulic performance.

Defyer™ DT Series
The Weatherford Defyer DT is a drillable casing bit designed for drilling with casing
or liners in soft to medium formations with confined compressive strengths up
to 7,000 psi (48.3 MPa). These formations include gumbo, shales, claystones,
unconsolidated sands, chalk, shaley sandstones, soft evaporites, and soft siltstones.
The Defyer DT is rated to 250°F (121°C).
The innovative design of the DT series includes an aluminum nose and
polycrystalline-diamond-compact (PDC) cutters that are optimally mounted on the
face of the tool to maximize drilling efficiency and durability.
Capable of running on most standard casing or liner systems, the Defyer DT bit is
available in sizes that range from 4-1/2 to 30 in. and models that include 3, 4, or 5
blades. The 5-blade models feature higher diamond content on the nose section to 13 3/8- × 17-in. Defyer DT306
drill longer sections than 3-blade and 4-blade models. The 5-blade Defyer DT bit is
available in sizes that suit standard casing or liner systems.
Defyer DT bits can be drilled out with any standard oilfield drill bit without
compromising the cutting structure. A range of interchangeable, drillable nozzles is
available to ensure optimal hydraulic performance.
Applications
• Drilling with casing in soft to medium-soft formations
• Drilling or reaming with surface or intermediate casing strings
• Drilling short intervals in conjunction with a drilling-with-liner (DwL™) system
Casing Bits
• Extending existing hole sections by drilling with casing or liner through hazards
Drillable
such as pressure transitions or depleted zones
• Drilling through cement and lost-circulation-material plugs that have been set to
isolate losses, pressure, or unstable holes 9 5/8- × 12 1/4-in. Defyer DT406
• Reaming casing or liner through unstable hole conditions, excessive borehole

caving, or in highly reactive swelling clay or mobile salt formations
• Drilling deviated hole sections in soft formations (nudge-type Defyer DT)
• Improving hole quality by using the backreaming feature to ream swelling
formations and tight spots

DwC™ Internal Casing Drive System
The Weatherford drilling-with-casing (DwC) internal casing drive system

reliably drills the hole and runs casing simultaneously. The DwC system
can drive a string of casing to depths of 15,000 ft (4,572 m) without the risk
of damaging the casing. Ideal for almost any application, the system has a
simple design that enables fast rig up and safe, efficient hoisting of longer
casing lengths.
Applications
• The DwC system can be used onshore or offshore to drive 9 5/8- to 13
3/8-in. casing to depths of 15,000 ft (4,572 m) and 16- to 24-in. casing to
depths of 5,000 ft (1,524 m).
• With simple modifications, the system can convert to a fishing spear.
• The system can replace elevators and casing fill-up tools to enhance
conventional tubular running operations.

• The straightforward design of the DwC system ensures reliable,
trouble-free performance and faster operations. The right-hand, quarter-
turn catch and left-hand, quarter-turn release enable rapid connection to
reduce rig time.
• A stop collar facilitates proper slip placement inside the casing for an easy,
Casing Bits
yet secure connection.
Drillable
• The high-pressure packoff accomodates a wide range of drilling circulation
pressures for optimal Defyer™ hydraulics and more efficient operations.
• Bidirectional wickers securely grip the casing for safer handling. The longer
slips reduce contact stress on the casing and and permit higher torques.
This enables the system to lift and ream longer lengths than conventional
equipment, which improves the ability to reach total depth.
• With simple modifications, the system can be converted to a fishing spear,
which reduces the amount of equipment required on site.

Options
• An optional mud-saver valve prevents drilling mud from draining out of the circulating equipment during connection,
which improves safety and working conditions. It also reduces the effects of the operation on the environment.

CleanReam™ Premium Casing Reaming Shoe
The Weatherford CleanReam premium casing reaming shoe reduces reaming

time during liner or casing installations. It is especially advantageous where
the likelihood of hole problems is high. The nose structure and external gauge,
for example, are designed to avoid potential sidetracking in soft formations.
The concentric nose features aluminum blades dressed with thermally stable
polycrystalline (TSP) diamond cutters.
Shoulder- and gauge-area polycrystalline diamond compacts (PDC) provide
an aggressive cutting structure for reaming through tight spots and hard
ledges. The nose can penetrate bridges in the wellbore with unconfined
compressive strength of up to 7,000 psi (48.3 MPa).
The reaming shoe is fitted with interchangeable nozzles to enhance hole and
blade cleaning while allowing on-site alteration of total flow area. The standard
nozzles are copper. If long periods of reaming at high flow rates are predicted,
the standard nozzles can be upgraded with ceramic nozzles. The nose and
nozzles are PDC or rock-bit drillable.
Applications
• Liner reaming
• Casing reaming
• The combination of a bladed concentric nose and nozzle configuration
optimizes
bit-face volume, creates a void area for effective cuttings removal, and
minimizes the risk of bit-balling.
• The shoulder-gauge PDCs provide a robust cutting structure for reaming
through tight spots and hard ledges. This structure prolongs the reaming
shoe life and increases the rate of penetration.
• Backreaming capability allows for both upward and downward reaming
through tight sections to ensure that casing is free to move when the next
joint of casing is run.
Reaming Shoes
• The near-center blade design reduces drillout material and can lock into
the cement or formation to counteract rotation during drillout.
• The cutting structure from center axis to full tool gauge outer diameter
makes it possible to ream even a completely closed hole.

Micro-Grip® Slips Gripping System
The patented* Weatherford Micro-Grip slips gripping system is used

in elevators and spiders to minimize die marks caused by gripping
on corrosion-resistant alloy (CRA) tubulars. Conventional spiders and
elevators are equipped with jaws and dies that penetrate the surface of the
pipe when the slips are engaged. These penetration points can create sites
for stress corrosion cracking and sulfide stress cracking, which compromise
the integrity of the tubular string. In contrast, the Micro-Grip system
distributes the rotational torque equally over many small gripping elements,
leaving only a shallow indentation of each gripping element in the pipe
surface. Extensive testing has proved that the Micro-Grip system preserves
the tubular surface integrity in corrosive carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen
sulfide (H2S) environments.
Power Slips
Applications
• Handling 2 3/8- to 10 3/4-in. -high CRA tubulars
• Handling tubulars in corrosive CO2 and H2S environments
• Using with standard field-proven elevators and spiders
• System operation requires standard field handling procedures that
provide safety and efficiency; no special training is required.
• High load capacity increases efficiency.
• Minimal marking preserves long-term tubular integrity against CO2
and H2S corrosion damage and saves on costs for expensive repair
and replacement.


Micro-Grip® Tong Jaws
The patented* Weatherford Micro-Grip system is used in hydraulic power

tong jaws to minimize die marks on corrosion-resistant alloy (CRA) tubulars.
Conventional power tong jaws are equipped with jaws and dies that
penetrate the surface of the pipe when the tong jaws are engaged. These
penetration points can create sites for stress corrosion cracking and sulfide
stress cracking that can compromise the integrity of the tubular string.
In contrast, Micro-Grip system inserts use serrated vertical gripping bars
embedded in an elastomer that distribute the rotational torque equally over
many small gripping elements, leaving only a shallow indentation of each
gripping element in the pipe surface. Extensive testing has proved that use
of the Micro-Grip system prevents corrosion in well environments with high
concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
Power Slips
Applications
• Handling systems for high-CRA tubulars
• Corrosive environments
• Long-term wellbore integrity applications
• Aluminum-coated riser systems
• Frequently used test strings (to minimize damage)
• The jaws fit standard, field-proven Weatherford power tongs without
special modifications and with standard operating procedures for
• The jaws preserve tubular integrity against CO2 and H2S corrosion damage.
• Tong-induced load distribution causes minimal marking for less damage to
tubing and casing—preventing stress-corrosion-induced failures for long-
term tubular integrity.
• The power tong has no hydraulic bladders to maintain, which reduces
system downtime.
• Easy handling means no special power equipment is needed.

Landing-String Slips 1250
Weatherford landing-string slips (LSS) 1250 act as a spider to grip landing

strings or drillpipe during makeup or breakout. The LSS 1250 carries heavy
loads up to 1,250 tons (1,133,981 kg) while eliminating pipe‑crushing
problems. The remotely‑operated LSS 1250 enables control from a safe
position anywhere on the rig floor or from the driller’s cabin. The LSS 1250 fits
in standard 37 1/2-in. National, Emsco, Oilwell, and Wirth rotary tables. The
LSS 1250 includes an automatic slip lubrication system and adaptable guides
to center landing strings and drillpipe with 5 1/2- to 7 5/8-in. ODs. Without the
guides, the LSS 1250 has a 12-in. maximum pass‑through OD.
Applications
Power Slips
• 5 1/2- to 7 5/8-in. OD landing strings or drillpipe

• 37 1/2-in. rotary tables
• The improved slip design for high-capacity landing strings reduces stress
on the pipe, which eliminates pipe crushing and safety hazards associated
with extreme pipe weight.
• The automated lubrication system provides uniform lubrication safely and
efficiently across the slip-bearing surface to prevent stuck slips with heavy
landing-string loads.
• Top and bottom guides center the pipe in the tool for uniform slip setting,
even in the extreme weather conditions of offshore rigs.
• Compatibility with the Weatherford ISIS® integrated safety interlock system
prevents the slips and elevator from opening at the same time, which
virtually eliminates dropped strings.
• The fail-safe hydraulic circuit prevents closed slips from opening or open
slips from closing in the event of a hydraulic pressure loss. This enhances
safety and permits other rig operations to continue.

Pull Plate Guide
The Weatherford pull plate guide is used for the safe, controlled breakout
and laydown of tubulars using the OverDrive™ casing-running system and
TorkDrive™ tools. The pull plate guide helps to safely transfer pipe-joint weight
from the TorkDrive gripping element to the single‑joint elevator, which reduces
stress and damage to the tubular threads, bail arms, and single-joint elevator.
The pull plate guide also enhances pipe-handling safety for drilling-floor
personnel by decreasing the risk of damage to the tubular connection threads,
TorkDrive bail arms, or single-joint elevator, which could result in dropped
objects from the derrick.

and connections.
Stabbing Guides

Stabbing Guide
The Weatherford stabbing guide is used to align two joints of drillpipe, casing,
or tubing. Consistent alignment increases the speed of connections and
reduces thread‑related downtime. The stabbing guide also enhances pipe-
handling safety for drilling-floor personnel by decreasing the risk of damage to
the tubular connection threads, bail arms, or single-joint elevator, which could
result in dropped objects from the derrick.
The stabbing guide consists of a stainless-steel collar and a specially
formed polyurethane shell that minimizes metal‑on‑metal shock, which can
cause major damage to box or pin threads or to the seal surface.
Weatherford also offers stabbing-guide shells for pin‑up drillstrings and for
breakout of long and two-stage premium drillpipe connections. These shells
prevent the pin thread from hooking in the box thread during break out. Both
the pin-up and breakout shells will fit the standard stainless-steel bodies.
Applications
• Tubulars from 4-1/2 to 20 in.
• Pin-up drillstring connections
• Long and two-stage premium drillpipe connections
• The stabbing guide improves control while consistently aligning and
safely guiding two pipe sections together, which reduces pin- or
box-thread damage.
• The quality-engineered polyurethane shell and seawater-resistant
stainless-steel collar increase durability, minimize maintenance, and
thereby extend the life of the tool.
• Large, positive-grip handles keep hands clear of stabbing connections,
which provides an extra margin of safety while enabling personnel to
control the connection.
• The latching mechanism has a simple design for ease of use when latching

Single-Joint Compensator
Compensators
The Weatherford single-joint compensator (SJC) is an innovative, load-

compensating device used to eliminate set-down weight from threaded
connectors during makeup and thereby to reduce the risk of thread galling and
cross-threading. The SJC is also used to help the stabber align pipe vertically
when the Weatherford Stabberless® system is not used.
The SJC is rigged up between the rig traveling block and the single-joint
elevator. It uses pressure-compensated cylinders that are attached to the top
of the bails on each side. Slings are connected from the cylinders to a bearing
swivel below the elevator. From the swivel, a two-part sling is connected to a
single-joint elevator. After the initial setting of the SJC system pressures, no
further adjustment is required during the job.
If a joint requires breakout, the SJC keeps the weight off the threads and
safely lifts the pin out of the box, reducing the chance of the threads hanging.
If required, the SJC can be configured to use a visual indicator at the
driller’s console to show that the compensator cylinders have reached the
optimal position.
Applications
• Minimizing or eliminating the potential of thread damage when running or
pulling carbon steel or corrosion-resistant alloy tubulars
• Minimizing or eliminating the potential for thread damage when running or
pulling casing with premium connections

• The SJC permits controlled towering of the joint during stabbing and
makeup, thus reducing the potential for damage to premium connections.
• An optional visual indicator at the driller’s console indicates the optimal
cylinder position for greater operational precision.
• The SJC reduces high contact stresses during stabbing, makeup, and
breakout that could otherwise lead to thread galling and costly repairs.
• Remote operation enhances rig-floor safety.
• Availability in a range of tubing and casing sizes enhances versatility.

Top-Drive Stand Compensator
Compensators
The Weatherford top-drive stand compensator is used to build and

run tubular stands that have square-shouldered connections. Running
tubulars in multijoint stands enhances operational efficiency by reducing
the number of power-tong trips to well center.
The top-drive stand compensator offsets the stand weight to prevent
thread makeup loss, which ensures string integrity. During makeup and
breakout operations, the tool supports the weight of the stand and ensures
that the proper torque is applied while reducing friction on and damage to
the threads.
Casing flaps close around the pipe OD and enable the tool to bear the
load of the stand. Air cylinders raise and lower the stand while decreasing
the forces acting on the threads to prevent damage to them. The top-drive
stand compensator effectively reduces any weight on the threads to zero
as the connection rotates.
Mounted on the top drive, the versatile top-drive compensator is
compatible with multiple rig types. Additionally, it can accommodate a
wide range of pipe sizes. The tool comes with a driller’s indicator box, a
dedicated control panel, and a transport frame.
Applications
• Preventing damage to the threads during the building and running of
tubular stands with square-shouldered connections
• Preventing stand weight from being applied to the connection, thereby
ensuring that the proper torque is applied

• Air cylinders calibrate to the weight of the stand as it is built. This
ensures string integrity by reducing forces on and preventing damage
to the threads.
• Compensating cylinders are available in two sizes, which expands the
range of pipe sizes and weights that the tool can support.
• A changeable top-drive connection sub makes the tool compatible with
different top-drive connections and therefore different rig types.
• A load-bearing swivel allows the casing flap system to rotate with
the pipe during makeup and breakout. This prevents the entire
compensator from rotating. It also prevents loosening of the the
top-drive connection and related dropped-object incidents.
• Shear pins incorporated into the casing flap system reduce the
potential for tool damage. The pins break if the driller inadvertently
attempts to pick up the weight of the string with the compensator.

TripMaster™ Compensator
Compensators
The Weatherford TripMaster compensator effectively eliminates the setdown

weight of a joint during connection makeup and breakout. Eliminating the
weight of the joint from the connection threads ensures that the proper torque
is applied and reduces the risk of thread damage, thereby improving long-term
wellbore integrity. Unlike compensators that accept the weight of only a single
joint, the TripMaster compensator carries the weight of the full string. This
reduces running time by eliminating the need to latch and unlatch the single-
joint elevator. The TripMaster compensator is available in 150-, 250-, and
500-ton (136,078-, 226,796-, and 453,592-kg) models.
Applications
• Installation and recovery of riser, casing, and tubing
• The design removes the weight of the joint from the threads during
connection makeup and breakout. This enhances long-term wellbore
integrity by protecting connection threads, preventing thread galling, and
ensuring proper makeup torque.
• The tool is available with remotely operated elevators for safety.
• The tool is available with ISIS® integrated safety interlock system elevators
to prevent accidental dropping of tubulars.
• The tool complements the Weatherford Stabberless® system, which
eliminates the need for a human stabber in the derrick and significantly
enhances safety and efficiency.

TorkSub™ Stand-Alone Torque Measuring System
The patent-pending TorkSub stand-alone torque measuring system uses

strain-gauge techniques to measure applied torque during connection makeup
and the weight of the pipe string after makeup. The system also measures
the temperature of the TorkSub shaft, which can be used in monitoring
mud temperatures. The TorkSub system can be used with the Weatherford
TorkDrive™ tool or any other top-drive makeup tool to precisely measure
the torque transferred from the top drive to the top-drive makeup tool. The
TorkSub system can also be used as a stand-alone system to obtain the same
measurements in other drilling-related applications.
Torque Monitoring
An integrated Namur-output gear-wheel-turns counter measures the rotation
of the shaft with high-resolution output. All data is sampled in the electrical
interface box and can be transmitted to any controlling system in a variety
Systems
of formats. The TorkSub system is ATEX certified and rated for Zone 1, so
analog output (4 to 20 mA and Namur) and digital output (CANbus) are
explosion protected.
Applications
• Monitoring premium- or API-connection makeup torque-turn
• Monitoring drilling/reaming torque, rotation speed, string weight, and
drilling-fluid temperature
• Calibrating the torque and weight measurement systems of the drilling
contractor’s top drive

• The strain-gauge technique that this system uses provides accurate torque measurement across the full torque
range, up to 60,000 ft-lb (81,000 N•m). This capability can compensate for the inaccuracy of top drives with
analog control systems and prevents the application of inadequate or excessive torque to pipe connections.
• The TorkSub stand-alone system provides precise measurement of the string weight after makeup by measuring
the weight of only the string below the system; that is, without the weight of the top drive. This capability
enables faster, more precise measurement of pickup and slackoff weights and provides an efficient indication
of string sticking.
• The system is ATEX certified and rated for Zone 1; safety is enhanced by elimination of the potential for gas ignition.
• Static and dynamic components communicate via wireless antennas, which enhances system reliability and safety
and reduces the potential for troubleshooting operations.
Torque Monitoring
• The integrated turns sensor precisely measures turns in both directions, which provides the ability to read positive
and negative torque. This feature enables monitoring and early response to typically hidden top-drive makeup
Systems
back-swing effects. It also guards against inadequate torque to pipe connections, which minimizes the potential for
dropped or leaking casing or tubing.
• The TorkSub standalone system is fully compatible with Weatherford torque monitoring systems and TorkPro™ top-
drive makeup software. This compatibility facilitates rig up and interfacing with the JAMPro™ joint-analyzed makeup
system to save time and minimize the potential for inaccurate input that leads to pipe damage.
• Load, torque, and temperature ratings cover a wide range of industry requirements for greater operational flexibility.
• Dual signal-output standards (analog and digital) make the system interchangeable with JAMPro and TorkPro
software and enable integration with the rig system.
• Several features of the TorkSub stand-alone system facilitate efficient troubleshooting:
–– The TorkSub interface and the LED power indicator signal whether the coil is operational.
–– Compatibility with ATEX-certified handheld devices enables equipment checking and calibration
in rig-floor conditions.

• Both AutoSeal models have an innovative design and softer packer-cup material to accommodate a wider range
of casing sizes. This advantage reduces equipment costs by minimizing the number of packer cups required; it
also enhances operational efficiency by minimizing the potential for dressing the tool with a packer cup of the
wrong size.
• The packer cup and the helmet are integrated in a single piece, which enhances operational efficiency by reducing
the potential for mismatching packer cups and helmets and reduces the inventory-management requirement.
• The absence of external housing enhances safety while saving time and costs. The lighter-weight tools require
less time for maintenance. They also eliminate the potential for elevator lock-up and the need for hydraulic or
mechanical safety-release subs.
• The hose quick connect makes assembly and disassembly of the mud-hose assembly easy.
• These tools include a metal guide nose rather than a centralizer, which makes the tools more robust and wear-
resistant. It also saves time and costs by reducing the potential for lost-in-hole items resulting from a damaged
centralizer.
• The mud-saver valve enhances operational efficiency; no change in configuration is required to convert the tool
from fill-up to flowback mode.
• The variety of non-top-drive space-out subs provided with these tools promotes equipment integrity and saves costs
by eliminating the need for third-party sourcing.
• The AutoSeal tools are adaptable to all rig types (hook and top drive) for operational flexibility.
• Model 100 accommodates 4 1/2-in. to 9 5/8-in. casing; Model 200 accommodates 9 5/8-in. to 20-in. casing. The

Internal Autoseal™ Tool
Push plate
optional
The Weatherford internal Autoseal tool facilitates fill or circulation of casing
with mud at any point as the casing is run into the hole. This unique tool
can almost instantly transition from fill-up mode to circulation mode, which
significantly reduces the risk of stuck casing, especially in highly deviated
wellbores. The Autoseal tool can also be used to control flowback when
running liners through tight spots. The tool can be safely rigged up or down in
about 15 minutes.
Applications
• Long casing strings for which manual fill-up methods are inefficient
or impractical
• Operations with tight casing tolerances, where flowback is a concern
• 4 1/2- to 22-in. casing
• The tool provides almost instantaneous transition from fill-up mode to
circulation mode. This significantly reduces the risk of stuck casing.
Shroud
optional • Two sealing elements provide complete sealing integrity inside the casing
to prevent blowback, which enhances safety.
• The back-off safety release sub prevents the elevator from locking up if
there is a lack of compression.
• The mud valve is fully open when inserted into pipe, which enables the
same tool configuration to handle fill-up and flowback applications.
• The tool enables automatic flowback control in tight-tolerance casing.
This results in a cleaner, safer work area on the rig floor.
• Tool sizes range from 8 to 20 bbl/min (3,180 L/min), depending on the
application, to provide operational versatility.
• The tool can be configured with two packers to run multiple casing sizes
(tapered strings) for greater efficiency.
Circulation Tools
• The tool eliminates manual casing fill-up to increase operational efficiency.
