Abstract
A system for conducting earth borehole operations comprising a first support; a mast attached to the first support, a top drive carried by the mast and longitudinally movable therealong, a second support, a skid carried by the second support, a CT injector carried by the skid, the skid being movable from the first support to the second support and a reel of CT for supplying CT to the CT injector.
Claims109
A system for conducting earth borehole operations comprising:
- a first support;
- a mast attached to said first support;
- a top drive carried by said mast for longitudinal movement therealong;
- a second support, said first and second supports being independently movable;
- a skid carried by said second support, said skid being movable from said second support to said first support;
- a coiled tubing (CT) injector carried by said skid, said skid being movable from said second support to said first support, said CT injector being movable from a first position on said skid to a second position in line with and under said top drive;
- a reel of CT for supplying said CT injector with CT;
- and
- a drawworks carried by said skid and a cable from said drawworks operatively connected to said top drive for moving said top drive longitudinally along said mast.
A system for conducting earth borehole operations comprising:
- a first support, said first support comprising a substructure having a first support surface and a second, lower support surface;
- a mast attached to said first support;
