Handling Equipment

Latch onto tubulars to raise or lower them in the well

Our complete portfolio—including elevators, spiders, flush-mounted equipment, and low-profile solutions—enables us to fulfill your handling needs. We have the capability to handle a variety of tubulars, sizes from 5 to 36 in., and string loads from 500 to 1,250 tons (453,592 to 1,113,981 kg). Whether running casing, tubing, completion tubing, or risers, we offer solutions that can enhance safety and efficiency.

Elevators

Clamp onto casing, tubing, and risers from above

Attached to the hook or top drive with bails, our elevators help you to handle singles or strings of casing, tubing, risers, and high corrosion-resistant-alloy completion tubing. These elevators—including automated, flush joint, remote operated, and spider/elevator combinations—offer various operating methods, from manual to remote, and they enable running pipe with or without collars.

 

Automated Sidedoor Elevator

The hydraulically operated automated sidedoor elevator quickly picks up large-OD casing and enables safe makeup of connections at a low height. Used with the required bails, the elevator picks up casing from 9-5/8 to 36 in. and handles loads of various sizes.

Flush-Joint Elevator

Our flush-joint elevator increases efficiency by running flush-joint pipe without the need to use threaded lift nubbins. The elevator accommodates pipe sizes between 4-1/2 and 14 in. and has a weight load limit of 5 tons (4,536 kg).

Remote-Operated Single-Joint Elevator

Unlike conventional elevators, our remote-operated single-joint elevator lifts single joints of tubing and casing without manual handling. The elevator accommodates pipe sizes between 3-1/2 and 20 in. and has a weight load limit of 6 tons (5,443 kg).

Spiders

Suspend the pipe in the hole while assembling the string

Our spiders suspend pipe—including casing, flush-joint casing, completion strings, tapered strings, and risers—from the rotary table during drilling and casing running operations. Depending on your needs, we can prescribe a spider with hydraulic, pneumatic, or remote operation.

 

Flush-Mounted Spider

The flush-mounted spider enables lowering the casing connection to a safe, efficient 3-ft (1-m) working height. It applies to operations with casing ODs between 4-1/2 to 14 in. where the appropriate rotary is available.
