TDS-4S Description
Chapter 1 Introduction
General description Oil well drilling with a rotary table, kelly drive bushing, and a 45 ft. kelly was the industry standard for years. For decades, drillers extended the drill string with the “making-a-single-connection” process using the rotary table, kelly, pipe tongs, drawworks cathead, master bushing, bowls, and slips. This method of handling pipe and joint makeup remained unchanged, apart from minor improvements such as kelly spinners, until the advent of top drive drilling systems. Varco produces several Top Drive Drilling Systems (TDS) to rotate the drill string and allow adding entire 93 ft. stands of pipe, eliminating two thirds of the conventional single-pipe drilling connections. This manual describes the function and maintenance of the TDS-4S, which integrates the drill pipe connection handling and drive systems with the drilling swivel. The TDS (Figures 1-1 and 1-2) provides the rotating power of a conventional rotary table drive while eliminating the need to “pick up” the cumbersome swivel/kelly combination. The TDS does not interfere with the existing conventional equipment. It allows tripping, circulation, rotation, and the running of casing as well as providing 90 ft. back reaming capabilities to reduce the chance of stuck pipe. TDS-4S Description

The integrated drive stem functions as the main output shaft driving the drill string. The electric drilling motor and transmission, located next to the stem, rotates the stem. The DC motor bolts to an upper assembly of the gearcase, called the motor support bonnet. The motor frame/guide dolly attaches to the motor housing assembly. The entire assembly moves vertically on two rails installed in the derrick. The vertical rails react the motor torque during drilling operations and keeps the TDS positioned over wellcenter. The pipehandler assembly (Figures 1-3 and 1-4) can make or break drill pipe at any height in the derrick.

The drive stem passes through the link adapter. The torque arrestors keep the link adapter above the landing collar on the drive stem when drilling (Figures 1-6, 1-7 and 1-8). When hoisting, the link adapter is pulled down onto the landing collar due to the added weight of the drill string. This directs the hoisting load through the drive stem, motor housing assembly, and swivel bail. The fluid service loop provides the hydraulic, pneumatic power, and optional cooling water services to the TDS. The electric service loops provide DC power and AC power/control. A drill pipe elevator hangs from a pair of conventional links that attach to the link adapter. Actuating the link tilt swings the elevator out to facilitate picking up pipe. The Major component description chapter of this book describes each of these assemblies. Subsequent books provide more information on the equipment specific to your rig configuration.

March 8, 2001
Drilling motor The drilling motor on the TDS is a 1,100 hp DC drilling motor. Mechanically, the motor features a double-ended armature shaft and thrust bearings for vertical operation. There is an air brake on the motor to hold torque in the drill string to assist in directional work. It is remotely operated by a solenoid valve. Please refer to the specifications included later in this book for additional details.
Two speed transmission The two speed transmission consists of the following major components: ❏ Bull gears – 96 tooth, 2.0 diametral pitch ❏ High range compound gears – 27 tooth and 30 tooth ❏ Low range compound gears – 23 tooth and 40 tooth ❏ Motor pinion gears – 21 tooth ❏ Geneva transmission shifter mechanism (Figure 1-9) ❏ Main body and lower gearcase ❏ Main shaft/drive stem ❏ Bonnet ❏ Swivel bearing The compound gears mount to their eccentric shafts with a tworow, full complement roller bearing on one end and a spherical roller bearing on the other end.

Lubrication to the bearings and gear meshes is force fed by an electrically driven gear pump externally mounted on the gearcase (Figure 1-10). The lower gearcase is a heavy duty steel casting, fully ribbed for added heat dissipation. The transmission shifts gears by rotating two vertical compound gear eccentric shafts. The two compound shafts (high and low) are supported on heavy trunnions between the main body and lower gearcase halves. As the shafts rotate (less than one-half turn), the compound gears go into or out of mesh with both the motor pinion gear and the bull gear because the support shaft center axes are offset or eccentric. Each compound shaft carries a large, internally splined geneva slave. A common geneva master sequentially unlocks, rotates, and locks both gears. The master rotates using a reduction gear set with a vertical manual input shaft. It carries its own latching mechanism and provides the security of a double lock on the compound shafts. A 1 in. male hex at the bottom of the transmission case (Figure 1-9), rotates the input shaft. After pushing inward on the male hex, it takes five turns of the input shaft to unlock both gear sets, rotate the engaged gear set to full disengagement, rotate the disengaged gear set into full engagement, and lock both gear sets in their proper positions with positive stops in the locked position. An external indicator shows the gear range selection.
Integrated swivel bail and swivel washpipe The integrated swivel bail is a bearing assembly that allows transfer of the rotating load to the lifting components (Figure 1-2). The swivel washpipe is a rotating seal that allows mud to flow to the rotating drill string.

Cooling systems Local blower The local blower cooling system with an optional extended intake provides local cooling air to the drilling motor (Figure 1-13). It receives air approximately 27 ft. above the rig floor at the lowest point of the motor’s travel. An explosion-proof 20 hp, 3,450 rpm AC electrical motor directly drives the impeller in the blower housing. An optional flexible duct connects the blower housing to the extended intake mounted on the traveling equipment. Two spark arrestor assemblies are mounted on the exhaust ports of the upper gearcase. These components hinder the egress of any air born sparks from the DC motor.

Closed loop The closed loop cooling system (Figure 1-14) consists of two air/ water heat exchangers cooled by twin blowers driven by a double ended AC motor. Ducting directs air out the motor exhaust port to the heat exchangers and back to the blower inlets. The heat exchangers are built from Cupro-Nickel tubes and the headers are pressure tested to 250 psi. The system requires a supply of liquid coolant (sea water, chilled fresh water or glycol) at 100 gpm at a maximum inlet temperature of 90°F. Purge air at a rate of 70 scfm per motor at 1.0 psig is also required to provide positive system pressure, and a purge control system (refer to TDS Control System information provided later in this chapter) monitors system pressure to insure safe operation.

Guide dolly assemblies The guide dolly assembly transmits the drilling torque reaction to the guide rails keep the TDS positioned over wellcenter and can provide a method for setting the entire unit aside for maintenance or to allow rig operation without the TDS if necessary. The standard guide dolly assembly consists of two frames connected by hinges on the pivot side and hold-down bolts on the other (Figure 1-16). Non-swing retract guide dollies use hold-down bolts (swing bolts) on both sides (Figure 1-17). One frame attaches to the motor housing assembly and includes attachment points for the service loops and rotary hose. The other frame includes the guide rollers and remains in the guide rails during all normal operations. Centralized lubrication manifolds provide roller lubrication.

Pipehandler The main components of the pipehandler include the following (Figures 1-3 and 1-4): ❏ Link adapter ❏ Safety valves (Upper and Lower IBOPs) ❏ IBOP valve actuator ❏ Torque wrench ❏ Link tilt mechanism The pipehandler provides two basic functions for the TDS: ❏ Tripping 93 ft. drilling pipe stands ❏ Providing up to 85,000 ft lb torque for makeup and break-out of connections at any height in the derrick (the PH-60d provides up to 60,000 ft lb torque) The pipehandler can be configured for various tool joint connections. It includes a link adapter and a special-purpose Varco torque wrench assembly. It also incorporates a remote IBOP valve actuator and link tilt mechanism. When not in use, the pipehandler remains stationary and free from the drill string passing through it. When tripping or performing bottom hole operations, the pipehandler is free to rotate 360°, emulating the action of a standard hook.
1-38
TDS-4S Description
Link adapter The link adapter (solid body elevator) and the elevator links (Figures 1-7 and 1-8), working in conjunction with the torque arrestors, transfer the hoisting loads to the drive stem. The drive stem is free to rotate inside the link adapter while drilling. The link adapter does not rotate with the drive stem because torque arrestors raise the link adapter up off the load supporting landing collar located on the drive stem. When hoisting loads, springs inside the torque arrestors compess to transfer the load to the drive stem by pulling the link adapter down onto the landing collar. The link adapter rotates with the rotating head–which is required for tripping operations. The torque arrestors contain compression springs capable of supporting any stand of drill pipe in the full up position.

Safety valves (IBOP) The Varco pipehandler includes two Internal Blowout Preventor safety valves (IBOPs) to provide blowout prevention. For detailed descriptions, installation, operation, maintenance, and parts information, refer to the IBOP Service Manual.
Saver and crossover subs Each pipehandler ships with two saver subs and one crossover sub. Saver subs (Figures 1-7 and 1-8) are dual pin subs used to preserve the threads on the lower IBOP and provide a pin for the box end of the drill string. Saver sub threads can be recut to a minimum shoulder-to-shoulder length of 5 in. before the sub must be discarded. The crossover sub converts the lower IBOP pin to a box connection for well control procedures with standard pipe.
e
Saver subs are load bearing components in the TDS and must be inspected periodically along with other load bearing components. Refer to the Maintenance and Troubleshooting book for more information.
Safety valve actuator The remotely operated upper IBOP valve actuator allows upper IBOP actuation at any height in the derrick. The upper IBOP actuator system consists of the following: ❏ Two pneumatic air cylinders ❏ Two actuator arms ❏ Actuator shell ❏ Two crank assemblies ❏ Two pneumatic solenoid valves Double-acting air cylinders move the actuator arm. The actuator arm connects to the valve actuator shell and moves the actuator shell up or down (Figure 1-19). A slot in the actuator shell engages the crank assemblies, which opens or closes the IBOP. The air cylinders are operated remotely by a solenoid valve controlled by an electrical switch at the VDC. 1-40

Torque wrench The torque wrench provides a means for making and breaking out connections with the drive stem. The torque wrench assembly consists of the following components (Figures 1-20 and 1-21): ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏ ❏
Hanger Torque tube Torque tube guide ring Two torque cylinders Two clamping jaws Two clamping pistons Control manifold Lift cylinder Two stop tubes Stabbing guide IBOP actuator cylinders and arms
A hanger attached to the rotating head supports the torque wrench. The torque wrench has two torque cylinders connected to the torque tube. The clamping jaw contains a 10 in. diameter clamping piston for gripping the box end of the drill pipe. On the lower section of the upper IBOP, a female spline engages the mating male spline on the lower IBOP contained inside the torque tube. When actuated, the torque wrench rises and engages the splines on the upper IBOP. It then receives sequenced pressure to clamp the clamping piston on the box connection. After the clamping pressure develops, another sequence valve automatically opens and directs pressure to the torque cylinders. The torque cylinders can rotate up to 25° while developing a maximum torque of 85,000 ft lb (60,000 ft lb for PH-60d). One electrical push button on the VDC controls the entire torque wrench operation. The driller simply holds the button down until the connection is made or broken. The driller then releases the button to allow the unit to automatically recycle to the ready position. A two-position, air piloted hydraulic valve located on the counterbalance manifold controls the cycle. The torque wrench can also make up or break out the saver sub or the lower IBOP. A manually operated valve on the rear of the pipehandler selects either the make up or break out function. 1-42

Link tilt mechanisms Standard and extended reach pneumatic link tilt mechanisms The standard (Figure 1-22) and extended reach (Figure 1-23) link tilt assembly allows: ❏ The elevators to move off of well center to pick up a stand in the mousehole. ❏ The derrickman to handle pipe more easily. The link tilt assembly mounts on the front of the solid body elevator (link adapter). This assembly consists of a pivoting lifting frame connected to the drilling elevator links with chains and clamps. A switch on the VDC controls a pneumatic solenoid valve that inflates an air spring within the lifting frame. Inflating the air spring pivots the frame upward, tilting the links outward. Extended reach link tilt mechanisms have two air springs and extend 76 in. A standard reach link tilt will extend links 52 in. Both reaches are based on 108 in. elevator links. An adjustable intermediate stop mechanism provides clearance between the drill pipe elevator and the monkey board to assist the derrickman in racking operations.

Hydraulic link tilt mechanism The hydraulic link tilt assembly (Figure 1-24) provides lateral movement of the drill pipe elevator to a position above the mousehole or toward the monkeyboard. The link tilt assembly mounts on the front of the link adapter (solid body elevator). The link tilt uses dual hydraulic cylinders. Full link tilt extension moves drill pipe approximately 78 in. from well center, based on 108 in. links. During operation, the operator can stop link tilt movement at any position and hold the supported load in place. The link tilt also enables retracting the open drill pipe elevator from the drill pipe while drilling, tripping, and adding stands (available only on PH-85 models). Link tilt controls
The link tilt is controlled by a four-position switch. The positions are RETRACT, FLOAT, HOLD, and EXTEND. RETRACT
In the RETRACT position, the elevator backs away from well center. FLOAT
FLOAT returns the elevators to well center from the retracted or extended position. A 1/2-second delay is programmed into the FLOAT function to allow the control switch to travel from the RETRACT position to the HOLD position without activating the FLOAT. HOLD
This setting holds the position of the elevators extended or retracted. EXTEND
This setting extends the elevator forward to the mousehole through wellcenter.

TDS-4S Description
Counterbalance system The counterbalance system prevents damage to tool joint threads while making or breaking connections with the TDS. It provides cushioned stroke similar to that provided by the hook. The counterbalance system prevents damage to the threads of the saver sub and drill pipe by offsetting the weight of the top drive while stabbing into a connection. The system (Figure 1-27) consists primarily of two hydraulic cylinders, a counterbalance manifold, and two hydraulic accumulators. The hydraulic cylinder assemblies connect the integrated swivel bail and the traveling equipment (hook, block, becket, hook adapter, etc.). When properly adjusted, the counterbalance system supports all but about 800 lb of the weight of the top drive over a full 8 to 10 in. of travel. The system also incorporates a complete backup. The two accumulators, constantly maintained at system pressure, are always able to provide pressure to the counterbalance cylinders if the HPU is “off ” or non-operational for any reason. For normal operation, however, the HPU is “on” when using the torque wrench for breaking out the top drive at the floor and is left on while making up the next stand. When adding a stand to the string during drilling operations, the driller takes a stand in the elevators and stabs it into the box in the rotary table. The driller continues to lower the TDS until the saver sub touches the box of the new stand. At this point, only about 800 lb load is on the saver sub/drill pipe connection. The counterbalance cylinders support the remainder of the TDS weight. The driller then spins in and torques up the connection with the pipehandler assembly and is ready to drill ahead. Note that the driller does not have to do anything extra to get the counterbalance system to function properly. It is a pre-adjusted system. Once drilling resumes, the HPU can be turned off and restarted again for breaking out the connection at the floor after drilling the stand down.

TDS Control System (TDCS) The TDS Control System (TDCS) provides the driller with a control console that operates all of the TDS functions. The components of the TDCS include: ❏ Varco Driller’s control and instrumentation Console (VDC) ❏ Transfer control panel (TP) ❏ Purge control system for closed loop cooling systems
Varco Driller’s control and instrumentation Console (VDC) The Varco driller’s control and instrumentation Console (VDC) consists of a torque meter, an RPM meter and various switches and indicator lights. The basic TDS control functions are: ❏ Link tilt ❏ Remotely controlled upper IBOP valve ❏ Motor brake ❏ Motor spin-torque control ❏ Makeup torque limit ❏ Transfer switch (TDS/ROT) The existing rotary table controls adjust motor speed, torque and direction while drilling. A typical VDC also contains indicator lights for determining the status of: ❏ The brake ❏ The remotely controlled upper IBOP valve ❏ The oil pump ❏ Blower pressure loss ❏ Cooling air temperature ❏ The purge system(s) Optional controls and status indicator lights are available. Refer to Engineering Drawing 98952 for VDC configurations.

Transfer control panel The TDS operates from the same SCR as the rotary table. The Transfer control panel switches power between them. This electrical enclosure contains the DC contacts, the programmable controller, the auxiliary AC components and the rig instrumentation interfaces for recording torque and speed of the TDS. The DC power cables running from the SCR to the rotary table motor are disconnected from the rotary table and connect to the transfer panel. New cables run from the TP to the rotary table motor and to the racking board junction boxes for the TDS. The transfer panel has a purge control system for use in a hazardous area (Zone 2 or Class 1, Div. 2). If the panel is in the SCR room, a purge system is not required. The panel is compatible with all currently installed SCR systems and is configured at installation for the SCR it will control. Logic and alarm functions are connected to the TDS by programming the transfer panel’s Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to operate the rig’s existing systems. Similarly, TDS interlocks and limits, such as spin-up and makeup speeds, are programmed into the PLC and are the same for all installations.
Purge control system The transfer panel, VDC, and TDS closed loop cooling system have separate purge systems. All systems provide positive internal pressure to prevent hazardous gases from entering areas of potential ignition in Zone 2 or Class 1, Div. 2 hazardous areas. Pressure switches in the protection units monitor the pressure and provide an alarm signal in the event of purge pressure loss. Prior to starting an unpurged system, the purge control unit purges the system for a specific time interval sufficient to remove any trapped hazardous gas. Status lights on the VDC indicate to the driller correct purge pressure, loss of purge and system purging. If purge pressure loss alarms and indicators are ignored for a preset time interval, the isolation unit can be set to shut down the TDS.

TDS-4S Description
Service loops The service loops transfer the required electric and fluid services between the derrick service standpipes and junction boxes, and the corresponding junction boxes and fluid connections located on the TDS. There are two kinds of loops: one containing the electric cables, and one containing air, hydraulic and water lines (water lines included only on units with a closed loop cooling system). The power electrical loop contains four 646 MCM DC power cables, one 2/0 AWG drilling motor ground cable. The other electrical service loop contains a composite cable consisting of: ❏ 26 14 AWG conductors for auxiliary features ❏ 4
8 AWG conductors for blower motor
❏ 2
5 AWG conductors for series motor field supply
❏ 2
14 AWG shielded pairs for the RPM pickup signal
The power and ground cables are spiral wound and potted inside a protective cover with 7 1/2 in. mounting flanges at each end. The composit cable is pathed in its own smaller service loop. This allows for easy changeout of either the power loop or the composit loop in the event of a failure. The TDS can use optional dual electrical service loops in order to meet certain regulatory agency requirements for power cable current carrying capacity. The fluids loop can consists of any combination of the following: ❏ 3
3/4 in. diameter hoses for hydraulic supplies (one is a spare)
❏ 2

Derrick electrical termination kit Installation Refer to Figures 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3 for typical mounting dimensions of the plate assembly. Mount it at racking board height within 15 ft. of the service loop support bracket. Remember to provide convenient access for wiring and maintenance. Usually, mounting the plate so that the J-box is four to five feet above the walk-around and near the service loop support bracket is adequate. If a walk-around does not exist, then construct a work platform to allow access to the J-boxes. Manufacture appropriate brackets and clamps to attach the plate to the derrick structure.

Rig-up procedure z
Refer to the engineering drawings to install the TDS. 1. Using four lift slings from the crane, one attached at each corner of the guide dolly, lift the TDS motor and dolly assembly to the V-door. 2. Attach the lifting slings from the hook or block to the pad eyes located at the swivel end of the motor support bonnet and lift the TDS into the guide rails. The slings must be a minimum of 15 ft. long (equal length) and capable of lifting 40,000 lb combined. (BOP stack lift slings are usually adequate.)
z
On some configurations it may be necessary to remove the upper roller brackets from the dolly to allow the unit to engage the guide rails. 3. Once the TDS is fully engaged on the guide rails, install the stops at the bottom of the guide rails and lower the TDS onto the stops. 4. Slide the link adapter onto the drive stem and support it up against the rotating head with adequate rigging and an air winch. Be certain that the link tilt mounting bosses are opposite from the torque wrench mounting clevis on the rotating head. 5. Slide the landing collar retainer onto the drive stem as shown in Figure 2-5. Install the O-ring in the uppermost groove on the stem. Load the O-ring and remaining grooves with a waterproof grease. Place the split landing collar around the grooves of the drive stem, and drive in the remaining roll pin. Grease the OD liberally. Wipe off excess grease. 6. Use the installation procedure in the IBOP Service Manual to install the pipehandler assembly. 7. Use the pipehandler to tighten the connection between the lower IBOP/saver sub assembly to the upper IBOP.

10. Install the counterbalance system as illustrated in Figure 2-6. When using chain, use the following procedure to determine the chain length required: a. Install pear links to ears on hook-block. b. With the hook supporting the TDS, measure the distance from the point of contact inside the pear link to the top of the mounting lug on the integrated swivel bail. c. Subtract 37 1/4 in. from the measurement in step b. d. Cut the chain to the length obtained in step c. The tolerance is: +3 1/4 in. or -0 in. e. Assemble remaining components and install per Figures 2-6 and 2-7. 11. Attach the service loops to the bracket on the TDS dolly frame. Using the cable clamps provided on the motor support bonnet, route the electrical cables over the gear box and into the J-boxes. The front guard folds down for access to the Jboxes. Use the electrical schematic (refer to the engineering drawings) to make the connections. Be certain that the cables are securely tied or clamped to the structure along their length. Route the hoses to the bulkhead and plug in the quick disconnects. Follow the stamped code numbers to confirm each type, and identify spares. 12. Attach the S-tube to the swivel gooseneck and the side of the motor frame as follows: a. Make up the upper union just before clamping the S-tube to the side of the motor frame. b. Install the drill pipe rubber onto the S-tube aligned with the mounting saddle on the frame. c. Attach the mud hose to the bottom connection of the S-tube. d. Position the 20° S-tube elbow on the bottom of the S-tube to adjust the hanging direction of mud hose. 13. Remove the exhaust duct shipping covers from the spark arrestors on the air exhaust duct at each side of the DC motor. Save the covers for use during future shipping or storage.

Motor alignment cylinder system Figure 2-8 shows the motor alignment cylinder installed on a typical motor frame. The split shipping brace, shown exploded from the cylinder rod, is only removed after unit is fully installed. If the brace is removed before the hydraulic system is powered, the motor will tend to rotate on its trunnions. If the cylinder is removed for service, use the three bleed holes (located along the top of the cylinder barrel) to remove trapped air from the cylinder before operating the unit. Refer to the Maintenance and Troubleshooting book for the adjustment procedure.

Driller’s controls and instrumentation The controls and instrumentation described in the following sections are, or must be, supplied for operation of the TDS system.
Varco Driller’s Console (VDC) Mount the VDC within easy reach and in plain view of the driller while he is operating the drawworks brake and clutches. The gauges must be easily seen by the driller during drilling operations. Provide appropriate cable glands for the electric cables.
Throttle and torque limit controls The throttle and torque limit controls are the standard controls used for the independent rotary drive table. If not using an independent rotary drive, then these controls must be added by the SCR manufacturer.
Wiring Refer to the electrical schematics in the engineering drawings.
n
Customers who choose to use control systems not manufactured by Varco should be aware that Varco systems are specifically designed with operational interlocks and safety devices to prevent possible injury to personnel or damage to the system. Other systems must meet Varco requirements. Varco highly recommends the use of its system as it is specifically made for use with the TDS.

Service loops Installation Install the service loops as follows: 1. Fabricate the appropriate brackets and clamps to attach the service loop mounting bracket to the derrick structure. 2. Place the service loop derrick mounting bracket at the height specified on the derrick interface drawing provided in the engineering drawings. Locate the bracket on the side of the derrick adjacent to the hinges on the TDS and as far as practical toward the corner where the guide rail bracing is attached. The bracket must be located far enough from the corner to insure the loops do not catch under the guide rails during operations, but far enough back to provide clearance for tong lines, the stabbing board, tugger lines, etc. 3. Do not unpack the service loops from the shipping protective crate until they are ready to hang in the derrick. Lift the service loops onto the rig floor (still in the crates) and then remove them from the crates with the lifting eyes provided.
e
Use care in lifting gear rigging so as not to damage electrical conductors. Use lifting eyes only. Do not bend the service loops tighter than a three foot bend radius. Tighter bends damage the loops. 4. Attach a sling to the TDS end of the service loop and lift using the lifting eyes only. Allow enough room for the 86 ft. service loop to hang and untwist. 5. Use the lifting eyes to pull the derrick end of the loop through the V-door and attach it to the air tugger. Hoist this end of the loop into the derrick while slacking off at the crane end. Do not drag the loop on any sharp areas on the derrick. Disconnect the crane from the sling and continue hoisting the loop into the derrick. 6. Check that the derrick end of the loop is hanging toward the crown. Attach the derrick end to the derrick service loop bracket and hold in place with flange clamps (Figures 2-2).

Electrical loop 1. Connect the pre-terminated wire ends at the motor J-boxes using the appropriate glands. Refer to the electrical schematic provided to ensure proper terminal block assignments. 2
Cut wires and cables to length and terminate them at the derrick end to attach them to the derrick J-boxes.
Terminal ends and lugs are supplied, but proper assembly equipment (crimping pliers, wire strippers, and hydraulic crimper for the DC power lugs with the correct dies for the cable) must be provided by the installer. Installation practices should comply with applicable electrical codes (i.e., NEC, etc.).
Fluids loop 1. Before connecting the hoses from the service loop, be certain that the service stand pipes have been flushed free of any contamination.
z
Use only 10 wt. hydraulic oil or non-detergent motor oil as a lubricant in the air system. Use of any other type of oil (i.e., Marvel Mystery Oil, etc.) or synthetic additive will cause the seals in the air valves to swell and cease to function. 2. Plug the quick disconnects into the appropriate mating end on the TDS. The quick disconnects are arranged to connect only one way so that the hoses cannot be mixed up. The hydraulic and air lines are identification stamped at both ends so they can be verified and connected properly. An assortment of pipe fittings are supplied with the termination kit to attach the fluid service loop hoses to the top of the standpipes in the derrick (Figure 2-2).

3. Connect the service loop to the standpipes, noting the codes (i.e., A for air, H for hydraulic, etc.) to separate the hoses.
z
The hoses in the fluids loop only extend 11 ft. from the mounting bracket. It may be necessary to make jumper hoses to reach the standpipes. Air loop
e
To reduce the possibility of accidental opening of the air-operated elevator, attach the airlines from the air-operated elevators to the spare port S1 on the rotating head whenever possible. Port S1 is located next to the hydraulic return port in the rotating head. Port S2 is next to the hydraulic press port. Install a pressure relief valve on the elevator and set at 200 psi.

Retract loop If your rig is equipped with a retract guide dolly, attach the retract loop to the derrick mounting brackets as follows:
z
There are four separate service loops needed for a TDS with retractable dollies: two electrical loops, a fluids loop, and a retract system loop. The electrical and fluids service loops attach to the derrick service loop mounting bracket, the retract loop attaches to the retract system service loop bracket. 1. Lift the crate containing the retract system service loop onto the rig floor. 2. Uncrate the service loop. 3. Attach an air winch to the lifting eyes on the derrick end (derrick end has 8 ft. of hose extending beyond the flange) and hoist to the retract system mounting bracket. 4. Attach the service loop flange to the mounting bracket with the hardware provided. Ensure that the service loop hangs straight in the derrick without any twists or kinks.
e
Use only 10 wt. hydraulic oil or non-detergent motor oil as a lubricant in the air system. Use of any other type of oil (i.e. Marvel Mystery Oil, etc.) or synthetic additive will cause the seals in the air valves to swell and cease to function. 5. Connect the retract service loop hydraulic and pneumatic hoses to the derrick standpipes.
e
Before connecting the hoses from the service loop, be certain that the standpipes have been flushed free of any contamination.

Checkout procedures 1. Turn on the hydraulic and air power and check for leaks. Repair as required. 2. Turn on the electric power (driller’s controls only). 3. Check the function of switches and solenoids. There is an audible click when each solenoid is actuated. 4. Actuate the link tilt. Be sure that it operates smoothly and the elevator reaches a joint in the mousehole. 5. Adjust the intermediate stop so that the elevator clears the monkeyboard when actuated. Refer to the Maintenance and Troubleshooting book if a problem occurs. 6. Actuate the motor brake. There is a loud sound as the air escapes when the brake releases. 7. Move the Make/Break valve located on the manifold at the back of the pipehandler torque wrench to the BREAK position. 8. Turn on the hydraulic power supply and adjust the pressure reducing valve (also located on the torque wrench manifold) to the appropriate pressure for the lower IBOP connection.

9. Return the Make/Break valve to the MAKE position. 10. Torque the connection between the upper and lower IBOP valves. The torque wrench automatic sequence is adjusted at the factory, but be sure that it follows the proper sequence. If necessary, refer to the Maintenance and Troubleshooting book for the adjustment procedure. 11. Push and hold the makeup button on the VDC a sufficient number of times to make up the connection. 12. Make up the lower IBOP to the saver sub. 13. Reset pressure to the appropriate setting for drill pipe connections (you can preset the pressure with the Make/Break valve in the MAKE position). 14. Use the procedure outlined in the Maintenance and Troubleshooting book to adjust the safety valve actuator mechanism. 15. Actuate the IBOP valve. Verify that the stroke adjustment is correct and that no binding occurs.
e
It is extremely important to verify that the stroke adjustment is correct and that no binding occurs as the valve will fail prematurely (wash out) if it does not open and close fully. 16. Verify that the indicator light on the VDC lights up when the IBOP valve is closed. 17. Assign the TDS at the driller’s console and check that the blower operates. 18. Advance the throttle and be sure that the motor is operating properly in both directions. 19. Calibrate the Torque meter and RPM meter. 20. With the Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) off, bleed down the TDS accumulators (HYD SIDE, not gas side). 21. Remove the split shipping brace (Figure 2-7) from the motor alignment cylinder. 22. Open the two flow control valves 1-1/2 turns off their seats. 23. Set a joint of drill pipe in the slips.

24. Bring the TDS down as if stabbing the saver sub into the box. The pin and box should be in alignment. If adjustment is necessary, use the following procedure: a. Measure how far and in what direction (toward or away from the rails) the pin must move to line up with the drill pipe box. b. Turn off the HPU and bleed down the cylinder accumulator (open the needle valve on the back of the manifold). This allows the motor alignment cylinder to relax and the motor to rotate on its trunnions until the integrated swivel bail contacts the motor support bonnet. c. Loosen the lock tab and jam nut on the cylinder clevis. d. With a wrench tightened on the cylinder rod flats, screw the rod into or out of the clevis, in the same direction the saver sub pin is to be moved. e. Secure the jam nut and lock tab. f. The nominal position of the two cylinder flow control valves is 1-1/2 turn off their seats. If you experience heavy drill pipe vibration, first attempt to control it with nonrotating stabilizers if the casing shoe is close to the surface. If motor movement becomes excessive due to continued vibration, (more than 1/2 in. of total cylinder stroke) close the flow controls to 3/4 turn off their seats.

Long term TDS storage procedures 1. Palletize the main unit for indoor storage. A cargo container is appropriate for indoor/outdoor storage. 2. Avoid wide variations in temperature and high humidity. The preferred environment is clean and dry at 60°F ambient. If high humidity is unavoidable, 70°F is recommended. 3. All exposed unpainted metal surfaces are coated with a rust preventive at the factory prior to shipment, however, check these surfaces periodically to be sure that no corrosion is taking place. The recommended rust preventive (slushing compound) for bare metal surfaces is Kendall Grade 5 (GE-D6C6A1) or equivalent. 4. Cover all openings to prevent water or dust from entering. Leave enough space around the drilling motor to allow the machine to breathe. Do not use silica gel or a dehydrating agent. 5. During storage, lubricant drains from the top half of the roller bearings in the motor, allowing corrosion to take place on the exposed areas. In order to counteract this, rotate the motor and gear train periodically to distribute lubricant over the top of the bearings. Perform this at three month intervals if stored indoors, and at one month intervals if stored outdoors. 6. The drilling motor is equipped with AC space heaters in order to keep the internal motor temperature above ambient, preventing condensation. Connect power to the space heaters at terminals 1 and 2 in the AC motor J-box (see electrical schematic in the back of this section for proper voltage). Be sure to reseal the protective covering after connection. 7. Megger the drilling motor armature and field (static voltage of 1,000 VAC and 2 MOhm minimum) when placed into storage and at three month intervals thereafter (one month if stored outside). Keep a record of the readings, as a drop between readings indicates an increase in moisture in the windings created by inadequate storage protection. If megger readings drop, bake the motor as soon as possible to restore proper resistance and avoid further damage. 8. Varco recommends adding one gallon of Mobilarma 524 Rust Preventive prior to shutdown. Or drain the oil and mix with a rust preventive, then replace the oil, run the oil pump and rotate motor to insure 100% coverage. 2-32
TDS-4S Installation and Commissioning
Returning the TDS to service after storage Before placing the TDS back into service, verify the following items: 1. Remove all rust preventive and any corrosion that may have taken place, taking special care with all load carrying components. 2. Follow the procedure in the drilling motor service manual. To verify the condition of the motor, take note of the following: a. Blow out all dust and dirt that may have accumulated in the windings with clean, dry air. b. Visually inspect for spring corrosion, sticking brushes and general defects. c. Remove the brushes from holders, inspect and replace them as necessary prior to operation. d. Check the winding insulation continuity to ground with a 1,000 volt megger. If the reading is less than two MOhms, bake the winding until the moisture content is sufficiently reduced to produce an acceptable reading. 3. Perform a complete system test and adjustment as detailed in the next section.

Stalling the DC motor e
The brake on the top end of the TDS drilling motor armature shaft is a static, or parking brake. It is not a running or dynamic brake. It is not intended to, nor is it capable of, slip-releasing the wind-up torque in the drill string. Using the brake to slip-release the drill string wind-up torque causes the brake to heat up and can destroy the brake lining. When the TDS motor brake holds the down-hole torque, Varco recommends using the following procedure to safely release the torque in the string: 1. Use the hand throttle to develop motor torque equal to the wind-up torque held by the parking brake. 2. Release the parking brake. 3. Reduce the drill current, reducing motor torque, as the drill string slowly releases the wind-up torque. 4. Turn the hand throttle off and reset the drill current to the normal operating position after the pipe unwinds completely.

Changing transmission speeds The transmission shifts gears by rotating two vertical compound gear eccentric shafts (Figure 3-1). The two compound shafts (high and low) are supported between the main body and lower gear case halves on heavy trunnions. As the shafts rotate (less than onehalf turn), the compound gears go into or out of mesh with both the motor pinion gear and the bull gear because the support shaft center axes are offset or eccentric. To change transmission speeds, use a 1 in. wrench to turn the 1 in. male hex, located on the well side of the guide dolly lower cross members at the bottom of the transmission case, to rotate the input shaft. It takes five turns of the input shaft to unlock both gear sets, rotate the engaged gear set to full disengagement, rotate the disengaged gear set into full engagement and lock both gear sets in their proper positions with positive stops in the locked position. An external indicator shows the gear range selection. An optional remote gear shifter is available. It allows the operator to change gears simply by turning a switch to select the desired gear. Refer to the Remote Gear Shifter Supplement for more information.

Pipehandler operation Standard rotating head The perimeter of the rotating head cam (Figure 3-2) has an indented area where the cam follower normally rests. When the cam follower is in this indented area, the return cylinder rod is fully retracted and hydraulic pressure inside the cylinder is at equilibrium. When the swivel block and cam rotates to another position along with the drill string, the ramp of the cam extends the return cylinder rod, unbalancing hydraulic pressure in the cylinder. When the elevator is released, the system automatically returns to its pre-selected (indented) position (equilibrium). To operate the swivel block locking mechanism, pull down the locking lever, pulling the locking pin out of one of 24 locking slots in the cam. With the locking lever in the vertical position, manually rotate the swivel block to the desired position and release the locking lever, setting the pin.

Powered rotating head The 10-port powered rotating head (Figure 3-3) functions as a hydraulic slip ring. It provides ten hydraulic and pneumatic passages between the stationary swivel flange and the rotating swivel block and attached pipe handling equipment. The powered rotating head is operated by controls on the driller’s console. The driller can rotate the swivel block and attached pipe handling equipment freely, or to a predesignated AUTO STOP position. The position can be set by locating a target in the bull gear on the rotating head, to align with the proximity sensor mounted on the flange of the rotating head.
Controls The powered rotating head is controlled by two switches. ROTATING HEAD LEFT/RIGHT switch
This switch rotates the powered rotating head, pipe handler, and link tilt to the right or left (same direction as the drill string). Rotation only occurs when the switch is held in the RIGHT or LEFT position. Rotation stops when the switch returns to the center position.
z
The ROTATING HEAD function is only active when the LINK TILT switch is in the FLOAT position. AUTO STOP/FREE ROTATE switch
This switch is in the AUTO STOP mode when the light is illuminated (on). In the AUTO STOP mode, a proximity sensor automatically stops rotating head rotation. The AUTO STOP function is independent of the direction of rotation. Rotation continues when the ROTATE switch returns to the center position, then activated again. When the AUTO STOP/FREE ROTATE light is off, the FREE ROTATE mode is active. In this mode, the rotating head rotates as described in the ROTATING LEFT/RIGHT section above.

Safety valves (IBOP) Operating the switch on the VDC to the IBOP CLOSED position causes the two actuator air cylinder rods to extend, moving the arms and the actuator shell body upward (Figure 3-4). This upward movement causes the crank assemblies to rotate 90°, closing the upper IBOP. Operating the switch to the OPEN position retracts the cylinder rods, drawing the IBOP actuator shell downward-opening the upper IBOP.

Torque wrench The primary function of the TDS torque wrench is to breakout the drill string from the saver sub before making a connection. The torque wench can also make connections if necessary (i.e., when replacing the lower IBOP or saver sub, or while backreaming, or when adding a pup joint to the drill stem). The torque wrench has a control manifold with the following components (Figure 3-5): ❏ Hydraulic pressure gauge ❏ Control and sequencing valves ❏ Hydraulic hose inlet and outlet Quick Disconnects (QDs) ❏ Manual Make/Break directional valve The Make/Break valve controls the torque wrench operating direction (makeup/breakout) during operation. A pressure reducing valve (PRV) on the control manifold allows presetting the makeup torque (this valve is bypassed when the torque wrench is in breakout mode). When the driller actuates the torque wrench from the VDC, the lifting cylinder rod retracts, raising the torque tube to engage the splines on the upper IBOP. A sequenced signal from the control manifold then operates the clamping piston, clamping the jaws onto the drill string box connection. Then another sequenced signal from the control manifold automatically directs pressure to the torque cylinders, rotating the torque tube up to 25° while developing a maximum torque of 85,000 ft lb (65,000 ft lb on the PH-60d Pipehandler). The position of the Make/Break valve on the control manifold determines the direction that the torque tube rotates. A two-position, air-piloted, hydraulic valve located on the counterbalance manifold located on top of the TDS guide dolly controls the entire sequenced cycle described above. A push button switch on the VDC operates the hydraulic valve. The driller holds the button down to makeup or breakout a connection, and then releases the button to allow the torque wrench to automatically recycle to the ready position. If the torque developed on the first pass is insufficient, the driller simply operates the button again.

TDS-4S Operation
Manually switch the Make/Break valve on the torque wrench to the MAKE position to use the top drive torque wrench to make connections. This allows the driller to initiate automatic torque wrench sequences and repeat them until reaching the preset makeup torque.

Failing to apply the correct amount of torque when using the torque wrench to makeup connections can result in equipment damage and injury to rig personnel. Do not switch the Make/Break valve to BREAK until completing the makeup sequence, which may require repeating the makeup sequence several times. Verify the torque pressure regulating valve setting after every makeup sequence before releasing the makeup valve. Repeat the makeup sequence until the torque cylinders do not stroke more than one inch during the final sequence, repeat the sequence if uncertain. Varco recommends that the driller operating the pipehandler verify that the torque cylinders do not stroke more than one inch on the last makeup cycle. Varco also recommends checking the torque gauge on the pipehandler while making connections to make sure the torque wrench applies the correct amount of torque to the connection. Stop and verify correct operation whenever the operator observes unsteady or inconsistent hydraulic pressure readings, or finds it difficult to adjust set points. Varco recommends that a second individual assist the driller when making connections with the torque wrench. The second person can verify that the torque wrench applies the correct torque to connections.

Drilling ahead Drilling ahead with triples Drilling ahead with triples is the common drilling mode for the TDS. There are various sources for triples. On skidding rigs drilling multiple well platforms, drill pipe can be left racked and used to drill the next well. If triples do not currently exist, there are two recommended methods of obtaining them. One is to leave some triples racked in the derrick when tripping back in the hole and finish the trip with singles. Leave enough triples racked to handle anticipated bit life. The second method for obtaining triples is to make up triples in the mousehole while drilling ahead or during idle rig time. For safety reasons a pivoting mousehole is best because it can pivot to a vertical plane to simplify making connections. Use the following procedure to drill ahead with triples (Figure 3-6): 1. Drill down until the saver sub is within three feet of the rotary table. 2. Circulate bottoms up as necessary. 3. Stop the string rotation. 4. Pick up the string and set slips for a connection four feet off the rig floor. 5. Switch the TDS motor from FORWARD to REVERSE. 6. Stop the mud pumps. 7. Close the IBOP. 8. Break out the drill pipe connection using the torque wrench on the pipehandler. 9. Using the TDS motor, spin out of the box while hoisting the TDS with the drawworks (follow with the drawworks, do not lead).

Drilling ahead with singles Typically there are two situations requiring drilling ahead with singles. One is beginning operations on a new well where there are no triples made up and racked. The other is when making surveys every 30 ft. (i.e., when kicking off using a downhole mud motor). The link tilt feature makes drilling with singles safe and efficient by moving the elevators to the mousehole to pick up the singles. Use the following procedure to drill ahead with singles (Figure 3-7): 1. Drill down the existing single, pull up to the 4 ft. level (approximately), close the IBOP, stop mud circulation, and set the slips. 2. Break the connection between the saver sub and the drill pipe using the torque wrench in the pipehandler. 3. Spin out the connection using the drilling motor. 4. Lift the TDS, opening the drill pipe elevators to allow them to pass over the box setting in the rotary table. 5. Actuate the link tilt to bring the elevator over to the single in the mousehole and latch the elevator around the single. 6. Pull the single out of the mousehole and as the pin clears the floor, deactivate the link tilt to allow the single to come to well center. 7. Stab the connection at the floor and lower the TDS, allowing the added single to enter the stabbing guide until the saver sub pin stabs into the box of the new joint. 8. Using a backup tong to react the torque, spin up and torque the connection using the TDS motors in the TORQUE mode. 9. Pull the slips, start the mud pumps and drill ahead.

Drilling ahead on a semi Derrick clearances are critical for drilling operations with the TDS on a floater. When making a connection, kelly drilling pulls the bit off bottom far enough to account for vessel heave. The 54 ft. kelly must be pulled all the way up to add the next joint. With the TDS, there is no kelly to pull up. Therefore, you must be able to pull the bit off bottom enough to allow for vessel heave when making a connection. The practical method for doing this is to pull up the pipe string until the bit is sufficiently off bottom, and then set the slips. The distance should equal the maximum expected heave. The TDS pipehandler can break out the drive shaft, and the TDS motor can spin out the connection. Then hoist the TDS into the derrick and add a new 90 ft. stand from the pipe rack in the same manner as on a fixed rig. Because the pin connection of the new stand is about 15 ft. above the floor, a torque backup device is required, as well as a means to assist stabbing. Varco provides a simple, remotely-operated Raised Backup System (RBS) which retracts out of the way when not in use. Use the following procedure to drill ahead with triples on a semi (Figure 3-8): 1. Drill the stand down until the elevator is to the floor. 2. Pull the string up sufficiently off bottom. 3. Set the slips. 4. Breakout the TDS and spinout shaft using the drilling motor. 5. Raise the TDS to the racking platform and latch the elevator on a new stand. 6. Extend the RBS and adjust the height. Clamp the RBS tong on the elevated box of the drill string. 7. Stab the pin of the new stand into the string using the RBS stabbing head if so equipped, or use the lower racking arm. 8. Stab the TDS into the upper end of the stand, spin in, and make up both connections. 9. Retract the RBS. 10. Pull the slips and drill ahead. 3-26

Tripping Perform tripping operations in the conventional manner. Use the link tilt feature to tilt the elevator to the derrickman so the derrickman can quickly latch it around the pipe. The hydraulic link tilt allows the elevator to also reach the mousehole. The air actuated link tilt has an intermediate stop which is adjustable to set the elevator at a convenient working distance from the monkeyboard. The intermediate stop tilts out of the way to allow the elevator to reach the mousehole. If a tight spot or key seat is encountered while tripping out of the hole, spin the drilling motor into the stand at any height in the derrick. Establish circulation and rotation immediately to work the pipe through the tight spot.

TDS-4S Operation
Reaming out The TDS permits reaming out of an open hole to prevent pipe sticking and to reduce key seat formation, without affecting racking functions associated with normal tripping (i.e., there are no singles to contend with). The pipehandler torque wrench can break out 90 ft. stands in the derrick. Use the following procedure to ream out of the hole (Figure 3-9): 1. Hoist the block while circulating and rotating the drilling motor until the third connection appears. 2. Stop circulation and rotation and set the slips. 3. Break out the drilling motor from the top of the stand using the pipehandler torque wrench. Hold a backup at the floor and spin out the drilling motor. 4. Break out the stand at floor level, and spin out using pipe spinners. 5. Pick up the stand with the drill pipe elevator. 6. Rack the stand back. 7. Lower the block and TDS to the floor. 8. Stab the drilling motor into the box, spin up and torque it with the drilling motor. With light slip loads, the pipehandler torque wrench can be used to torque the connection. 9. Resume circulation and continue reaming out of the hole.

Well control procedures The TDS can stab into the string in any position in the derrick. While drilling, the remotely controlled IBOP valve is always in the string for immediate use as needed. Use the following TDS well control procedure in conjunction with standard IBOP well control procedures: 1. On indication of a kick, set the slips at the nearest connection and stab the TDS into the string. 2. Spin up and torque the connection using the Spin/Torque control, after setting the backup tong. 3. Remotely close the upper IBOP valve.* 4. Lower the string to the floor and reset the slips. 5. Manually close the lower IBOP valve. 6. Remove the torque wrench vertical travel stops. 7. Breakout the lower IBOP from the upper IBOP. 8. Engage the top drive motor in reverse to spin out the connection. 9. Install the appropriate crossover sub, check valve or circulation sub on top of the lower IBOP valve. 10. Proceed with normal well control procedures. * Operation of the IBOP valves is the same as any standard valve. A 7/8 in. hex wrench is included with the system to operate the upper valves if the remote actuator should fail, or for checking that the valve is functioning correctly.

Running casing For casing operations, longer elevator links (180 in.) must be used to allow clearance for the cementing head under the torque wrench in the pipehandler. Attach a short piece of hose to the saver sub in the pipehandler to fill the casing while lowering. Use the remotely controlled upper IBOP valve to start and stop the fluid flow. If desired, run casing conventionally using the block and hook and swinging the TDS aside. Use longer bails (180 in.) to prevent the block dolly (if used) from contacting the TDS dolly.
Handling bottom hole assemblies For handling bottom hole assemblies, use the swiveling drill collar dolly (Figure 3-10) to allow the elevators to turn freely. The drill collar dolly’s upset, which latches in the standard drill pipe elevator, is mounted on a bearing allowing it to swivel even while it is under load. A shoulder elevator is suspended from the “perfection” links (or a second drill pipe elevator if lifting subs are used.) The collars can be walked in or out with the elevator turning on the drill collar dolly.

Post jarring operations e
Jarring occurs on all drilling rigs. It is not practical to recommend removing the top drive from the drill string during all jarring operations. But the possibility of damage to a top drive during a jarring operation is considerable. Consider removing the top drive from the drill string before performing prolonged jarring. It is imperative to exercise caution when using a top drive after a jarring operation. Safe operation of the TDS is the responsibility of the user and rig crew. Use the Post Jarring Checklist (PI 93-1) and Design Specification, Design Torque Standard (DS00008) to help ensure safe top drive operation. Note that the checklist includes recommended procedures. Do not limit inspections to items on the checklist. The checklist draws attention to specific parts on major subassemblies. Inspection should be rigorous, looking for any wear that could cause a safety or operational risk. Use the Post Jarring Checklist (PI 93-1) and Design Specification, Design Torque Standard (DS00008) after performing any jarring operation while the top drive is in the drill string.

Chapter 1 Maintenance
Inspection TDS swing out procedure Varco top drives with swing-out guide dollies can be quickly swung aside on their own dolly frames for inspection, maintenance, running casing, or to allow drilling operations requiring a kelly and rotary table. Electrical, hydraulic, and air supplies do not have to be disconnected. Use the following procedure to swing out the TDS only if your rig has a guide dolly with hinge pins (refer to the engineering drawings for information specific to your rig configuration): 1. If you have a retract system, operate the switch on the VDC to retract the TDS. 2. Slowly lower the TDS until the elevator nears the rig floor. 3. Remove the elevator and elevator links. 4. Lower the TDS guide dolly to the stop.

On some rigs, it may be necessary to secure the traveling block frame to the guide dolly frame using chain and/or rope. 5. Turn off the Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) and bleed down hydraulic pressure by opening the needle valve on the counterbalance manifold. (The counterbalance manifold is located on the upper motor frame.) 6. Detach the counterbalance system cylinders from the hook or block by unhooking the pear links from the ears on the hook or block. 7. Disconnect the air intake hose. 8. Disconnect the mud hose from the TDS S-tube.

DC drilling motor Thoroughly inspect the TDS, motor support bonnet, and guide dolly assembly for loose bolts and fittings daily. If any safety wire or cotter pins were removed to facilitate repairs, replace them immediately.
z
The DC motor has a complete manufacturer’s service manual for your reference provided in the Vendor Documentation Package.
Motor alignment cylinder
e
The alignment cylinder is not intended to be used to align the pin with the box at the well bore. It is a device to counterbalance the offset weight of the DC motor and allow the system to accommodate external forces. It is adjustable to ensure that the mainshaft is straight at well center–to compensate for design tolerances in the guide rails and dolly. To work properly, the guide rails must be properly located, and the dolly must fit within design tolerances. Check alignment cylinder operation weekly. Also, inspect all moving parts and check accumulator pressures on a weekly basis.
Air exhaust muffler Varco installs air exhaust mufflers on the exhaust ports of the multi-gang solenoid valve manifold for noise abatement. All such mufflers reduce noise and collect contaminants that can eventually restrict the air passage. Air passage constriction results in back pressure on all of the solenoid valves and erratic valve operation. It also holds pressure on the air brake. Periodically remove the mufflers and clean or replace them. If noise abatement is not an issue on the rig, replace the mufflers with simple pipe elbows.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Derrick termination kit air filter/ regulator/lubricators Top drives that rely on rig air to power link tilt, upper IBOP, brake, and torque wrench makeup/breakout sequence pilot signal functions require regular inspection. The air valves, cylinders and actuators for these functions require proper lubrication and moisture-free and particle contaminant-free air. Moisture in the air can cause corrosion on internal cylinder surfaces. Particle contamination can damage the seals in moving parts and cause solenoid valves to stick. Oil, injected by the lubricator and carried by the air, reduces friction between moving parts and increases the life of seals in valves and actuators.
z
Varco supplies a filter/regulator/lubricator in the derrick installation kit and recommends installing it at the fingerboard level in the derrick. Improperly adjusted regulators can cause poor device performance at reduced pressures, or valve and cylinder seals and O-ring extrusion at excessive pressures. Inspect the entire filter/regulator/lubricator monthly for damage to the filter bowl, overall body, or inlet and outlet fittings. Replace any damaged, corroded, or improperly functioning components. Adjust the pressure regulator outlet pressure to 100-120 psig monthly. Clean and drain the filter weekly. Fill the lubricator with petroleum-based hydraulic oil with a fluid viscosity of 100-200 SSU at 100°F (ISO 32/34).
e
Do not use fluids such as Marvel Mystery Oil, motor oil, or Dextron II in the lubricator. Swollen seals may result.

Pipehandler Thoroughly inspect the pipehandler for loose bolts and fittings daily. If any safety wire or cotter pins were removed during repairs, replace them immediately. Inspect the hinge bolts daily to make sure they are not separating from the pipehandler. Make sure the hinge pins are not loose due to excessive wear in the bore of the clamp clevis or a broken retaining bolt.
n
Inspect the link tilt intermediate stop and adjustment device for overall integrity weekly. Replace the components if there is excessive looseness of the threaded rod in the threaded hole of the pivot arm (Figures 4-24 and 4-25). An indication of a possible problem is if the two intermediate stops are not adjusted equally (i.e., if the thread engagement differs between the two stops). Failure to perform this inspection and/or component replacement can result in injury to rig personnel.
Nondestructive Examination (NDE) Yearly (or after approximately 3,000 operating hours), perform a Nondestructive Examination (NDE) of all critical load path items.
z
NDE inspection includes visual examination, dye penetrant examination, magnetic particle inspection, ultrasonic inspection, x-ray examination, and other methods of nondestructive testing for metallurgical integrity.
Visual inspection Use calipers on a regular basis to measure the amount of wear on the elevator link eyes (Figure 4-1). Compare the measurements with the Wear Chart (Figure 4-1) to determine the current strength of the elevator links. The capacity of the links equals the capacity of the weakest link.

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) Once a year, or every 3,000 operating hours, Varco recommends performing a Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) of the exposed surfaces of all load carrying components and load collar grooves to reveal any fatigue or crack indications. Any indications found are a potential cause for replacing the suspect component. Round bottom pits and erosion are acceptable as long as the defect is less than 1/16 in. deep. Larger defects or any crack indications are cause for replacing the suspect component. After approximately five years, or 15,000 operating hours, depending on the severity of operating conditions, Varco recommends performing a MPI of all load carrying components over their entire surface (including internal bores) to reveal any fatigue or crack indications. Any indications found are a potential cause for replacing the suspect component. Round bottom pits and erosion are acceptable as long as the defect is less than 1/16 in. deep. Larger defects or any crack indications are cause for replacing the suspect component. The load carrying components are: ❏ Drive stem/main shaft (lower portion) ❏ Landing collar ❏ Upper and lower IBOP ❏ 350-Ton BNC drill pipe elevator ❏ Link adapter ❏ Saver, crossover, and spacer subs ❏ Power subs ❏ Power swivels ❏ Elevator links Details on MPI procedures are in the following publications:

Ultrasonic Inspection In addition to the MPI, Varco also recommends performing an Ultrasonic Inspection of the above components to detect any erosion of the inside diameter. Any erosion reduces the loadcarrying capability of the part. Any subsurface irregularity can also compromise a component’s integrity. Details on Ultrasonic Inspection procedures are in the publication: ASTM A-388 Std. Practice for Ultrasonic Examination of Heavy Steel Forgings. Safety valve inspection procedures (IBOP)
z
Upper and lower IBOP valves, because of their internal grooves and shoulders, are particularly susceptible to corrosion fatigue cracking. These internal diameter changes act as stress risers for bending and tensile loads. It is especially important to properly inspect the IBOP valves on a frequent basis. Read and use the IBOP valve inspection procedures described in the IBOP Service Manual (SM00611).

Chapter 2 Lubrication
Lubricating the motor and motor support bonnet assembly Gearbox Check oil daily. With the motor off, check to see that the oil level is at the middle of the sight glass located on the side of the main body. Drain and refill the gearbox every 1,500 operating hours or three months, whichever occurs first. (Refer to Oil capacity later in this chapter.) Properly maintaining the TDS gear shifting mechanism increases the operational life of the top drive. Use the following procedure to maintain proper gear lubrication: 1. Shift all top drive two speed gearboxes from one gear to the other and back again at least once a week. This helps to distribute lubricant and prevents contaminant buildup. 2. Remove the gear indicator lever assembly and the indicator gearcase cover.
TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
4-23

3. Repack the inside area with grease every six months (refer to Figures 1-9 and 1-10 in the Description book). 4. Inspect the gears for corrosion or damage. Clean, lubricate or replace components as required. There is a “timing mark” on the gears to ensure correct orientation. If these marks are not visible when removing the gears, mark the gears before removal to ensure correct orientation when reinstalling them. If there are problems shifting from one gear to the other, use the following procedure to shift the gears: 1. Turn the drive stem with chain tongs to make sure the gear mesh aligns properly. Do not turn the DC motor while shifting gears. 2. Insert two 3/8 in. bolts in the threaded holes on the bottom of the shafts while shifting the gears and use a bar to turn the shaft in the proper direction. Do not shear the bolts. Eccentric shaft rotation direction is the same as the shifter input shaft when shifting into gear. 3. If the shift input mechanism slips when attempting to shift gears, use a torque wrench to check the torque of the shifter when the clutch begins to slip. If the torque is less than 65 ft lb, then use the Torque setting procedure to adjust the clutch
e
Gearbox oil must be drained before removing clutch. The factory setting of the clutch is 45 ft lb. However, increase the torque if there are persistent problems. 4. Remove the 3 in. inspection plugs on the rear of the gearcase and make sure the compound gears are free to turn with the unit in neutral. If the gears cannot turn, it indicates a larger problem (i.e., contaminants in gears, damaged bearings, etc.).
4-24
TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Torque setting procedure Use the following procedure to set the torque limit clutch to 45-50 ft lb: 1. Attach any torque indicator to the output stub (Figure 4-4). 2. Hold the body and determine the current torque setting. 3. Remove the snap ring and locking plate. 4. Use a 5/8 in. open end wrench to turn the nut clockwise to increase torque, or to turn the nut counterclockwise to decrease the torque. 5. Check the resulting torque and repeat the above steps if more adjustment is necessary. 6. Replace the locking plate and snap ring.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Other gearbox lubrication and maintenance considerations ❏ Keep the bottom of the eccentric gear shafts clean and free of corrosion, paint or other contaminants. Keep this area lightly lubricated with oil. ❏ Contaminant build up or corrosion around the upper end of the eccentric shafts can cause persistent shifting problems. Install sealed caps on the top of the shaft to correct the problem. There are two ways to install sealed caps. One way to install sealed caps requires shop installation during top drive overhaul. There is a kit for field installation (P/N 97926). It consists of a rubber gasket, a sealing cap and a stud which threads into an existing tapped hole in the top of the eccentric shaft. The stud holds the cap on top of the gearcase and keeps contaminants away from the shaft. It also adds a secondary seal between the oil in the gearbox and the DC motor cooling air path.
Initial oil change period Drain and refill the gearbox after the first 500 operating hours or four weeks, whichever occurs first. Remove and clean the oil pump suction strainer (or oil filter, depending on the model and configuration) when changing the oil.
TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting

March 8, 2001
Oil capacity The TDS-4S holds approximately 10-20 gallons of oil, but oil capacities vary according to the type of cooling systems, etc. installed. Always fill the transmission to the middle of the sight glass. Use the following procedure to fill the transmission for the first time on a new top drive: 1. Fill the gearbox to the top of the sight glass (approximately 10-20 gallons). 2. Operate the top drive 10-15 minutes and check the sight glass. 3. The oil level should be near the middle of the sight glass. If the oil level is below the middle of the sight glass, add more oil until the level reaches the middle of the sight glass. If the oil level is at, or above the middle of the sight glass, do not add any additional oil to the gearcase. After installation and initial operation of the top drive, always fill the transmission to the middle of the sight glass. When draining oil from the drain plug at the bottom of the gearcase, only the 5-6 gallons of oil at the bottom of the gearcase actually drains. Oil still remains in the rotating head cavity (approximately 1-2 gallons), the oil lube/pump/cooler system (approximately 1-2 gallons), and the wetted surfaces inside the motor housing assembly (approximately 2-3 gallons). Removing the suction hose from the cover plate below the pinion shaft allows more oil to drain and also removes sediment that collects there. Removing the oil drain plug from the rotating head allows more oil to drain.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Lubricating the DC motor The upper motor armature bearings have grease points located on the brake adapter plate attached to the top of the motor. The lower armature bearing grease point on the G.E. motor is at the end of a small diameter tube projecting toward the back of the tool. The grease points all have plugs or relief fittings installed during operation. Install grease fittings to lubricate and then remove the fittings and replace the plugs for operation. Lubricate the pinion (transmission) end bearing every 750 operating hours, or three months, with two ounce by weight Shell Cyprina RA™. Lubricate the commutator (brake) end bearing every 1,500 operating hours, or six months, with two ounce by weight Shell Cyprina RA™.

Lubricating the guide dolly assembly Lubricate the 20 guide rollers every trip at the four manifolds (5 fittings each) located on each corner of the guide dolly (Figure 4-12). If your rig has a retract system, refer to the Retract Guide Dolly supplement. Check guide rollers weekly for cracks or excessive axial or radial play and replace as necessary. Lubricate the hinges (one place on each hinge) monthly. It is possible to over-grease (too much pressure, not volume) the guide rollers. This can push the plugs out. Visually inspect all of the guide rollers for evidence of grease extruding from the end(s) of the shaft. If you discover over-greasing, perform the following procedure: 1. Remove and disassemble the roller assembly. 2. Thoroughly clean and inspect all parts. 3. If the component parts are still serviceable, drill and tap the shaft end(s) for 1/8 in. NPT threads and install internal wrenching pipe plugs after thoroughly cleaning metal chips from the grease ports in the roller shaft. 4. Pre-grease roller bearings before reassembling and installing the rollers and shaft. 5. Re-grease roller bearings through grease lines to make sure lubricant is pumping through the roller bearings. Some grease should extrude between the rollers and roller shaft. 6. Replace unserviceable assemblies. 7. Improve plug retention on roller assemblies with intact sheet metal plugs by staking the edges of the port(s). To do this: a. Remove the roller or roller bracket assembly to improve accessibility. b. Use a hammer and chisel to stake the port edges.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
A preferred method is to rework the roller assembly for drill and tap operation, but the staking method is also effective. At each bottom corner of the motor frame are the two grease points for the motor trunnions (Figure 4-13). Lubricate these weekly. Lubricate the washpipe packing daily with the mud pump off. Daily, with the hydraulic power on, check the filter gauge on the pressure filter to determine the condition of the filter element. Replace the element when a bypass condition is indicated.

Use only 10-wt. hydraulic oil or non-detergent motor oil as a lubricant in the air control system. Using any other type of oil or synthetic additive causes the seals in the air valves to swell and cease to function.
TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Lubricant specifications TDS-4S transmissions operate under a combination of heavy and shock loads. Under these conditions oil tends to extrude out of the gear mesh. Keeping an effective film of oil on the gear mesh requires oil with an AGMA “extra pressure” rating, and a minimum viscosity of 100 SUS at operating temperature. Varco top drives also operate under a wide variety of temperatures. Select lubrication for the TDS based on the minimum ambient temperature to be expected before the next oil change. Under all but the most severe operating conditions, Varco recommends changing the oil every three months. Introducing an oil viscosity greater than required by the ambient temperature can: ❏ Damage the gearbox due to reduced oil flow ❏ Damage the oil pump because of excessive load All oils change viscosity with temperature and EP oil is no exception. The TDS transmission lubrication system is limited to pumping oils of a maximum of 9,000 SUS viscosity. Varco recommends measuring the oil temperature with a contact thermometer. Measure on the pump discharge fitting on the TDS. The following tables will aid in your lubricant selection and keep your TDS-4S transmission operating properly: Minimum ambient temperature °F °C

If the oil temperature falls below 20°F, Varco recommends running the TDS at very light loads (less than 100 Amps) until the oil is above 20°F. If drilling conditions dictate oil temperatures below 20°F, consult Varco engineering. If the oil temperature rises above 200°F, Varco recommends shutting down or reducing drilling loads to stabilize the oil temperature below 200°F If drilling conditions dictate oil temperatures above 200°F, consult Varco engineering.

Adjusting the upper safety valve (IBOP) and safety valve actuator system Refer to the IBOP Service Manual for upper IBOP and safety valve actuator system adjustment procedures.
Adjusting the counterbalance system Leave the HPU on during the entire adjustment procedure, and disconnect the TDS from the drill string near the bottom of the rails, but well off the stops. 1. Remove the caps and loosen the lock nuts on the needle valve and PRV located on the counterbalance manifold (Figure 419). It is not necessary to remove the front guard for access to the manifold. A small amount of oil will leak around the adjusting stems after removing the caps. 2. Open the needle valve and let the stem circulate for two minutes. Crack both upper cylinder fittings and bleed air from system. Tighten the fittings. Close the needle valve. 3. Using a hex wrench, screw in the PRV until the cylinder retracts, raising the TDS. 4. Slowly back out the PRV. The pressure decreases and the cylinder rods begin extending. When the integrated swivel bail contacts the hook, note the pressure on the gauge. Allow the pressure to decrease an additional 25 psi and tighten the locknut. Replace the caps on the valve adjustment stem.

The pressure setting is adjusted by screwing the PRV in or out with a hex wrench (Figure 4-19). Screwing in the valve increases pressure and moves the saver sub toward the rails. Backing out the PRV reduces pressure and moves the saver sub away from the rails (see additional notes at the end of this procedure). 6. Verify the correct pressure setting using the following procedure: a. With the HPU on, back down the pressure using the PRV until the saver sub begins to pivot away from the rails. Record this pressure. b. Slowly increase the pressure until the saver sub no longer moves closer to the rails as pressure increases. At this time, the cylinder should be in a “dead band” area. c. Slowly increase the pressure until the saver sub begins to move toward the rails again. Record the pressure reading when this occurs. d. To determine the correct pressure setting, add the average pressure readings from steps a and c above and divide by two. The resulting pressure “dead band” provides equal pre-load in each direction – both toward and away from the rails. e. Record the pressure setting for future reference. 7. Set a joint of drill pipe in the slips. 8. Bring the top drive down as if stabbing the saver sub into the box. The pin and the box should be in alignment so that the OD of the pin clears the shoulder of the box. If adjustment is necessary, use the following procedure: a. Measure how far and in what direction (toward or away from the rails) the pin must move to line up with drill pipe box. b. Turn off the HPU and bleed down the alignment cylinder accumulator. This allows the motor alignment cylinder to relax and the motor to rotate on its trunnions, until the swivel contacts the motor frame. c. Loosen the lock tab and jam nut on the cylinder clevis.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
d. Use a wrench on the cylinder rod flats to screw the rod into or out of the clevis, in the same direction the saver sub pin is to be moved. A 1/4 in. of pin movement results from a 3/4 turn of the rod. The alignment cylinder rod extension should be 2 3/8 ± 1/8 in. gland to rod threads when the system is properly aligned. e. Secure the jam nut and lock tab. f. The nominal position of the two flow control valves is 1-1/2 turns off their seats. Should heavy drill pipe vibration be encountered, first attempt to control it with non-rotating stabilizers in the casing close to the surface. If motor movement becomes excessive due to continued vibration (more than 1/2 in. of cylinder stroke), the flow control valves may be closed to 3/4 turn off their seats. g. Tighten the lock nuts and replace the caps on all valve stems.
z
If the alignment cylinder is removed for service, install the alignment cylinder replacement brace to support the motor housing assembly while continuing to operate the TDS. After reinstalling the alignment cylinder, use the three bleed holes (located along top of cylinder barrel) to remove air trapped in the cylinder. Rail spacing and setback from the centerline of the well must be held within recommended tolerances in order to maintain vertical alignment of the TDS.

Precharging the counterbalance system Please read these instructions completely before precharging, making note of the special cautions at the end of the section. 1. Use an inert gas such as nitrogen for precharging accumulators. If oil-pumped is not available, use dry, waterpumped nitrogen gas. 2. Before precharging, make certain: a. The accumulator end caps are screwed flush into the accumulator body. b. The gas valve is screwed in tight. c. No oil remains trapped in the top end of the accumulator. 3. Remove the gas valve protector and the gas valve cap. 4. Attach the charging hose to the nitrogen bottle and to the gas valve using the following procedure: a. Use thread sealing and lubricating compound on the pipe threads of the gauge. b. Back the gas chuck stem completely out of the way before attaching the assembly to the accumulator gas valve. c. Use a wrench to tighten the gas chuck swivel nut onto the gas valve. Close the bleeder valve. d. Turn the gas chuck stem all of the way down, depressing the core in the accumulator gas valve. e. Only crack open the nitrogen bottle valve to slowly fill the accumulator. Shut it off when the gauge indicates 900 psi. f. If the 900 psi precharge pressure is exceeded, make sure the nitrogen bottle valve is closed, then open the bleeder valve (opposite the gas valve below the gauge) slightly, but only momentarily, to reduce pressure. g. Before loosening the swivel nut, turn the gas chuck stem out all of the way, then open the bleeder valve. h. Prevent the gas valve from turning, loosen swivel nut, and remove the assembly. 5. When precharging is complete, replace the cap on the gas valve and install the gas valve protector.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
e
Do not loop or twist hose as it stiffens when gas pressure is released from nitrogen bottles. Never loosen the swivel nut attached to the gas valve in the accumulator without first backing the gas chuck stem all of the way out. Do not reduce accumulator precharge by depressing valve core (high pressure may rupture rubber valve seat). Instead, slowly turn gas valve out until gas begins to escape through bleed hole drilled through threads of valve. This hole is a safety feature, it warns of stored pressure whenever gas valve is being removed. Install new gas valve O-ring each time gas valve is removed.

Refer to the GE Electric Motor Manual for procedures to remove the pinion or hub on the armature shaft, or to service the motor itself. Once the unit has been disassembled, inspect the following assemblies for any wear or damage that may be critical: 1. Gear set: Check the teeth and splines for chips or heavy wear. The wear pattern should be even and symmetrical. If not, replace it. Expect some small surface pitting. It is not cause for replacing the gear set. 2. Bearings: Clean thoroughly in solvent, then rotate and listen for any roughness during rotation. 3. Main shaft: Check splines and tool joints for wear. Replace the shaft if spline wear exceeds 0.090 in. 4. Main shaft: Check fit to bull gear, wear sleeve surfaces, and retaining threads. 5. Seals: Always replace seals and gaskets when removed. 6. Main shaft housing: The bore for the upper bearing and the pilot diameter for the lower gearcase are critical. Clean up any nicks or gouges prior to reassembly. 7. Air brake: Check the brake for air leakage and the pads for wear. 8. Wear sleeves: These should be free of any imperfections on the sealing surface. 9. Blower: Clean any accumulation of dust from the ducting, then operate the unit and correct any interference between the impeller and housing. 10. Air valve assembly: If any air-operated systems are malfunctioning, remove the appropriate valve and repair or replace. Reassemble the drilling motor and motor support bonnet by reversing the steps in the disassembly procedure. Replace all grease seals and O-rings, and refer to the following torque chart for bolt tightening guidelines.

Installing a pinion gear can be dangerous to personnel installing it as well as anyone witnessing the procedure. Exercise caution at all times. Use the following procedure to install a TDS motor pinion: 1. Clean the motor shaft by hand and cover with a thin layer of Engineer’s Blue. 2. Firmly install the pinion on the motor shaft by hand. Mark reference lines on the pinion and the shaft to ensure identical angular orientation each time. 3. There must be a minimum of 75% surface contact between the pinion and motor shaft. Dress the motor shaft/pinion very lightly with a fine emery cloth and repeat the “blueing” procedure if necessary until there is at least 75% surface contact between the pinion and motor shaft. 4. After thoroughly cleaning all blueing, oil, and/or grease from the pinion bore and shaft, trial mount the cold pinion gear on the motor shaft, lining up the reference marks.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Replacing the safety wiring Use the following procedures to safety wire screws, nuts, bolts, or other fasteners where applicable.
n
Torque fasteners before safety wiring any screw, nut, plug, or other fastener. Never overtorque or loosen a torqued fastener to align safety wire holes. Use the size and type of safety wire required in the applicable specifications and drawings. Whenever possible, use double-twist safety wiring.
n n
Limit single-twist wiring to the following: small screws located in closely spaced, closed geometrical patterns (e.g., triangles, squares, rectangles, or circles), parts in electrical systems, or parts that are difficult to reach.
Do not reuse safety wire. To install safety wire: 1. Open the jaws of the safety twist pliers. 2. Squeeze the handles of the pliers together and unlock the round, perforated slider in the center of the pliers from the hook lock. 3. Grip both safety wires in the jaw. Squeeze the handles together with one hand and pull the slider toward the rear of the pliers with the other hand to lock the pliers. 4. Twist the safety wire by pulling the aluminum knob and twist the rod out from the pliers. Let the pliers spin free. 5. Return the knob and twist the rod by holding the pliers steady with one hand and pushing against the end of the knob the with other hand (step 4 in Figure 4-35). 6. Repeat the previous twisting cycle.

7. After threading the safety wire through the hole in the fastener, pull the wire straight through without nicking the wire. Twist four to five complete revolutions per inch of wire. 8. Make a pigtail of approximately 1 in. (25 mm) length (four twists minimum) at the end of the wiring and bend back or under to prevent it from becoming a snag.

TDS-4S Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Safety wiring tips ❏ Pull the safety wire firmly, but do not stretch it or let kinks develop. Make twists tight, even, and as taut as possible without weakening the wire by overtwisting (Figure 4-36).
n
Do not nick the wire with the edge of the hole in the fastener. Position the safety wire so the pull exerted by the wire tightens the nut. For best results, let the wire leave the fastener in a clockwise direction ❏ Twist the safety wire so the loop around the bolt or head has sufficient tension to keep it from slipping up and over the bolt head, with resulting slack in the safety wiring.
n
When securing castellated nuts with safety wire, tighten the nut to the low side of the selected torque range, unless otherwise specified. If necessary, continue tightening within specified torque limits until a slot aligns with the hole. ❏ The number of nuts, bolts or screws that can be safety-wired together depends on the application. As a guide, when safetywiring widely spaced bolts by the double-twist method, a group of three, or a 24 in. (610 mm) length of safety wire is usually the maximum.

TDS-4S Control System
General description The Top Drive Drilling System (TDS) typically operates from the same SCR as the rotary table. A panel, located in a Central Electronics Enclosure (CEE), switches power from one to the other. The CEE typically contains the following components: ❏ DC contactors ❏ A programmable logic controller (PLC) ❏ Auxiliary AC components ❏ Rig instrumentation interfaces for recording TDS torque and speed
TDS-4S Control System
5-5
March 8, 2001
In dedicated top drive SCR configurations, the SCR runs the top drive only. The panel can feature a purge control system so it can be located in hazardous areas. If the panel is located in the SCR room, a purge system is not required. The panel is designed to be compatible with all presently installed SCR systems and is configured at installation for the specific SCR used on a rig. Logic and alarm functions are connected to the TDS via PLC programming so the TDS can operate existing rig systems. Also, TDS interlocks and limits, such as spin-up and makeup speeds, are programmed into the PLC and are the same for all installations.

General Description Washpipe Assembly The washpipe assembly is located between the main shaft and the gooseneck (S-pipe) on the TDS/IDS, supported by a bonnet. The washpipe assembly allows for the rotation of the TSD/IDS drilling string. Two types of washpipe assemblies are available: standard and hammerless.
8
Varco
General Description Special Tools The standard washpipe assembly has hammer nuts on its washpipe nut and packing box. The hammer nuts are provided so that a special wrench and a hammer can be used to tighten to washpipe nut and packing box during installation. The hammerless washpipe assembly uses gear nuts which are tightened more precisely without a hammer but with a special torque wrench kit. This feature makes the unit easier to install by allowing the unit to swing in and out of its support bonnet before being torqued and does not require the use of a hammer.

Improper greasing procedure
Greasing can cause the seal to unseat from the washpipe and cause premature failure of the assembly. Running the TDS/ IDS without standpipe pressure allows the seals to reseat. Follow greasing procedure as outlined in the Lubrication Procedures.
21
Standard Washpipe Assembly Troubleshooting Symptom
Probable cause
Remedy
Premature failure accompanied by occasional spurts of mud from packing box
Washpipe alignment caused by improper installation, or misalignment of the gooseneck, or excessive bearing endplay
If necessary, reinstall washpipe or realign the gooseneck. Check washpipe alignment as follows (see illustration on following page): 1. Install dial indicator base on packing box. Adjust dial indicator to contact the washpipe approximately one inch above the packing box. 2. Rotate main shaft through one revolution, noting the minimum and maximum readings on the dial indicator. Subtract the minimum reading from the maximum reading to obtain the Total Indicated Runout (TIR). Maximum allowable TIR is 0.007 inch. 3. If out of specification, check gooseneck alignment.
Premature failure accompanied by occasional spurts of mud from packing box
Misalignment of gooseneckto-washpipe pilot
Inspect main shaft and mainshaft-togooseneck alignment as described in the Every Six Months Inspection procedure.
Installation problems
The proper installation sequence allows the packing and washpipe to align to each other, and ensures that both the washpipe nut and the packing box engage their pilots. Follow proper installation procedures (refer to the Initial Installation Procedure).
Nut not torqued
Improper torque prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers. When pressure is applied, it will extrude the packing between the spacers. Follow proper torquing procedures as described in the Initial Installation Procedure.
Too mush grease during assembly of the unit
Too much grease prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers during operation. The grease can sustain a hydrostatic pressure that resists torque during the installation.
Premature failure due to flanged packing
During operation the grease gradually leaks out resulting in loosening of the packing box. Follow proper greasing procedure during reassembly and check for proper spacer contact during installation (refer to the Initial Installation Procedure).

23
Standard Washpipe Assembly Troubleshooting Symptom Packing is worn out
Probable cause
Remedy
Poor greasing schedule or improper grease.
Follow proper lubrication procedures.
RPM, pressure and mud temperature too high
Friction between the seals and the washpipe create heat. TDS/IDS rpm and standpipe pressure contribute equally to the amount of heat generated. If pressure of rpm is increased, so is the amount of heat generated. Heat generation goes up with the square of the bore size. Mud is what cools the system. The hotter the mud, the less cooling it provides. The greater the amount of heat generated is relative to the amount of cooling the mud will provide, the hotter the seals run. As the seals run hotter, the wear resistance of the rubber drops. If using a large-bore washpipe, convert to a small-bore washpipe.
Spacers too flat
If the spaces are not flat, then metal-tometal contact cannot be maintained even when they are bottomed out against each other. The resulting small gaps will allow the packing to extrude into these areas. Follow instructions outlined in the Inspection Procedures.
Nut not torqued
Improper torque prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers. When pressure is applied, it will extrude the packing between the spacers. Follow proper torquing procedures as described in the Initial Installation Procedure.
Blue spacers
Improper torque or grease on the OD of the spacers
Improper torque on the nut can lead to situations where the lower and middle spacers spin the packing box. The resulting heat achieves temperatures high enough to turn the spacers blue.
Unable to maintain torque on packing box
Improper assembly or installation
1. Remove washpipe assembly from TDS/IDS. 2. Disassemble the washpipe assembly, setting aside the packing seals for the lower, middle, and upper spacers. 3. Reassemble the washpipe assembly without the packing seals for the lower, middle, and upper spacers.

Install the holding ring into the washpipe nut and install washpipe nut onto the TDS/IDS goosneck until the holding ring is firmly in place. c. Using a dial indicator, measure and record the distance between the flat surfaces on the washpipe nut and the packing box. Also for future use, mark the location where the measurement is taken. NOTE To ensure that the washpipe assembly has been sufficient tightened, measure the distance with each subsequent installation of the washpipe assembly.

Hammerless Washpipe Assembly Inspection Procedures Every Six Months Washpipe Assembly Alignment Satisfactory packing life depends on good washpipe alignment. Use the following procedure to check sleeve-to-gooseneck support alignment: 1. Attach an indicator base to the gooseneck support and place the indicator at the top of the sleeve. 2. Raise and lower the sleeve and record the total indicator reading. 3. Attach a magnetic indicator base or an improvised holding fixture to the sleeve or packing box. 4. Rotate the sleeve 360° and record the TIR. Washpipe Assembly Tolerances Use the following procedure to check washpipe assembly tolerances: 1. Shim the gooseneck support to obtain a required bearing clearance of 0.001 to 0.003 inch. 2. Check the clearance by raising and lowering the sleeve. The maximum allowable misalignment at the gooseneck support bore is 0.008 inch TIR. The maximum allowable misalignment at the gooseneck pilot is 0.010 inch TIR. The maximum allowable misalignment after complete assembly of the washpipe assembly is 0.010 inch TIR.
i Inspection may indicate misalignment exceeding recommended limits. The packing box assemblies are designed to accommodate misalignment of the sleeve to the gooseneck and can operate with some excessive misalignment. However, to achieve maximum packing life, maintain the misalignment at the washpipe within the recommended limits.

Premature failure after greasing
44
Packing failure or packing is improperly seated
Disassemble and inspect components. Replace worn or damaged components on reassembly of the washpipe.
Improper greasing procedure
Greasing can cause the seal to unseat from the washpipe and cause premature failure of the assembly. Running the TDS/ IDS without standpipe pressure allows the seals to reseat. Follow greasing procedure as outlined in the Lubrication Procedures.
Varco
Hammerless Washpipe Assembly Troubleshooting Symptom
Probable cause
Remedy
Premature failure accompanied by occasional spurts of mud from packing box
Washpipe alignment caused by improper installation, or misalignment of the gooseneck, or excessive bearing endplay
If necessary, reinstall washpipe or realign the gooseneck. Check washpipe alignment as follows (see illustration on following page): 1. Install dial indicator base on packing box. Adjust dial indicator to contact the washpipe approximately one inch above the packing box. 2. Rotate main shaft through one revolution, noting the minimum and maximum readings on the dial indicator. Subtract the minimum reading from the maximum reading to obtain the Total Indicated Runout (TIR). Maximum allowable TIR is 0.007 inch. 3. If out of specification, check gooseneck alignment.
Premature failure accompanied by occasional spurts of mud from packing box
Misalignment of gooseneckto-washpipe pilot
Inspect main shaft and mainshaft-togooseneck alignment as described in the Every Six Months Inspection procedure.
Installation problems
The proper installation sequence allows the packing and washpipe to align to each other, and ensures that both the washpipe nut and the packing box engage their pilots. Follow proper installation procedures (refer to the Initial Installation Procedure).
Nut not torqued
Improper torque prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers. When pressure is applied, it will extrude the packing between the spacers. Follow proper torquing procedures as described in the Initial Installation Procedure.
Too mush grease during assembly of the unit
Too much grease prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers during operation. The grease can sustain a hydrostatic pressure that resists torque during the installation.
Premature failure due to flanged packing
During operation the grease gradually leaks out resulting in loosening of the packing box. Follow proper greasing procedure during reassembly and check for proper spacer contact during installation (refer to the Initial Installation Procedure).

Varco
Hammerless Washpipe Assembly Troubleshooting Symptom Packing is worn out
Remedy
Poor greasing schedule or improper grease.
Follow proper lubrication procedures.
RPM, pressure and mud temperature too high
Friction between the seals and the washpipe create heat. TDS/IDS rpm and standpipe pressure contribute equally to the amount of heat generated. If pressure of rpm is increased, so is the amount of heat generated. Heat generation goes up with the square of the bore size. Mud is what cools the system. The hotter the mud, the less cooling it provides. The greater the amount of heat generated is relative to the amount of cooling the mud will provide, the hotter the seals run. As the seals run hotter, the wear resistance of the rubber drops. If using a large-bore washpipe, convert to a small-bore washpipe.
Spacers too flat
If the spaces are not flat, then metal-tometal contact cannot be maintained even when they are bottomed out against each other. The resulting small gaps will allow the packing to extrude into these areas. Follow instructions outlined in the Inspection Procedures.
Nut not torqued
Improper torque prevents metal-to-metal contact between the flat surfaces of the spacers. When pressure is applied, it will extrude the packing between the spacers. Follow proper torquing procedures as described in the Initial Installation Procedure.
Blue spacers
Improper torque or grease on the OD of the spacers
Improper torque on the nut can lead to situations where the lower and middle spacers spin the packing box. The resulting heat achieves temperatures high enough to turn the spacers blue.
Unable to maintain torque on packing box
Improper assembly or installation
1. Remove washpipe assembly from TDS/IDS. 2. Disassemble the washpipe assembly, setting aside the packing seals for the lower, middle, and upper spacers. 3. Reassemble the washpipe assembly without the packing seals for the lower, middle, and upper spacers.

Hammerless Washpipe Assembly Troubleshooting Symptom Unable to maintain torque on packing box (cont)
Probable cause
Remedy 4. Reinstall the washpipe assembly on the TDS/IDS as follows: a. Install the packing box onto the TDS/ IDS main shaft. Tighten until spacers are firmly held. b. Install the holding ring into the washpipe nut and install washpipe nut onto the TDS/IDS goosneck until the holding ring is firmly in place. c. Using a dial indicator, measure and record the distance between the flat surfaces on the washpipe nut and the packing box. Also for future use, mark the location where the measurement is taken. NOTE To ensure that the washpipe assembly has been sufficient tightened, measure the distance with each subsequent installation of the washpipe assembly.
