Adr rigs are the shit.!! This looks like a 300 series. Ive roughnecked for years. And these rigs let me go home with enough energy to spend time with the family everynight👍
+VolantProducts What is the pint of the ring that they are installing with the pneumatic tool in the first sequence? Do you need different CRTis for different casing sizes? Do the 5-6 pads expand to grip the ID of the casing? What is the use for the silver threaded adapter that they remove when the casing is in the slips?
+epistte Some good questions! The ring installed in the connection box provides a shoulder that increases torque capacity. One base CRTi can be configured with Volant's patented grip system to run several different casing sizes. Details are available in the resource section of our web site www.volantproducts.ca/resources/ under 'specification summaries'. The pads, or dies, expand radially to to grip the pipe body without engaging the threads, and the silver threaded adapter is an optional steel thread protector that keeps the threads clean and prevents damage that could result from extreme misalignment.
+VolantProducts Thanks for those answers. I do no work in the oil patch. I'm just a mechanical engineer who love to learn about the technology used in other fields. I live in the Utica shale of Ohio but I've never been up close on a rig.
WHILE I HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE IN MANY MECHANICAL FIELDS,I KNOW LITTLE ABOUT THE OIL PATCH! HOWEVER THIS LOOKS LIKE A MUCH SAFER SYSTEM OF DOING CASING INSTALLATION AND REMOVALS! IS THERE A SIMILAR SYSTEM FOR HANDLING THE DRILL STEM AND TOOLS?
That's the cleanest rig in the history of the oil patch!!!!!
Need some narration on the video.

whats not to like about it 👍👍
impressive machine
Clean Rig
how do you open a CRT if it cant get out of the casing
Is this the same system that's installed on the SWIFT10 drilling rig?
+inger tachunko One of our customers operates on this rig using this equipment.
what is CRTi ?
Casing Running Tool - internal grip.
CRTe describes the external grip version.
