A drill pipe mountable wellbore cleaning tool apparatus includes a support sleeve that is mounted to a drill pipe joint in between the connector end portions of the drill pipe joint. Centralizers are attached to the opposing ends of the support sleeve and the support sleeve carries one or more debris cleaning tools in between the centralizers. At least one locking clamp is attached to the cylindrical portion next to a said centralizer, and prevents the support sleeve from moving longitudinally along the drill pipe joint.

The system for making or breaking the riser includes a robotic system. The robotic system includes one or more robotic arms configured to be disposed on a spider deck, and one or more riser-connection manipulation tools each having a camera and being configured to manipulate a riser connection, the camera being configured to capture an image of an object, wherein each robotic arm is configured to couple to one riser-connection manipulation tool. Further the system for making or breaking the riser includes a control system. The control system includes a robot controller in communication with the one or more robotic arms and configured to control the one or more robotic arms. The system for making or breaking the riser is configured to analyze the image to determine the location and orientation of the object and transmit the location and orientation of the object to the robot controller.

A method of borehole pipe installation begins with unfinished stick pipes brought to the installation site and then machined or cut to form male and female ends. The pipe ends are then locked together to form a flush joint. The lock can be provided via a groove cut into one of the ends for receipt of a lock gasket, which secures and seals the joint when the pipes are pushed together, and prevents the pipes from being pulled apart. Alternatively, to the groove and lock gasket, the ends can be glued and screwed together, with the screws allowing the joined pipes to be pulled through the borehole before the glue is dry. The pipe joint has flush exterior and interior surfaces to minimize borehole clearance and maximize fluid flow through the pipe assembly.

A wrench assembly comprises an upper clamp assembly adapted to grip a first tubular, a lower clamp assembly coupled to the upper clamp assembly, the lower clamp assembly adapted to grip a second tubular, wherein the upper clamp assembly includes a plurality of torqueing cylinders coupled thereto, and a torque detection circuit in fluid communication with the torqueing cylinders, wherein the torque detection circuit is configured to apply a rotational force to the upper clamp assembly for a predetermined period of time prior to applying a target torque value to complete a threaded connection.

A robotic apparatus (1) for performing drill floor operations comprises a support arrangement (2) and at least one manipulator arm (6). The at least one manipulator arm (6) is configured to carry an end effector (11) configured to manipulate one or more of tubing, tools and/or equipment on a drill floor (d) or pipe deck of an oil and gas rig in order to perform a given drill floor operation.

Disclosed is a reduced graphene oxide nitrile rubber, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 100-140 parts of nitrile rubber, 30-90 parts of a reduced graphene oxide nitrile rubber masterbatch, 1.8-2.52 parts of a vulcanizing agent, 1.2-1.68 parts of a vulcanization accelerator, 5-7 parts of a vulcanization activator, 17-23.8 parts of a plasticizer, 2-2.8 parts of antioxidant, 59-86.6 parts of a filler, 0.1-0.14 parts of a curing agent, and 2-2.8 parts of dichlorophenol. The reduced graphene oxide nitrile rubber has excellent mechanical properties, a wide applicable temperature range, and strong stability in use, which excellently addresses the poor mechanical properties of the nitrile rubber in the prior art due to high temperature in use and the interfacial compatibility issue between the filler and the rubber.

A tong for handling a tubular includes a jaw carrier having an active jaw movable from a retracted position to an extended position relative to the jaw carrier; a cam body disposed about the jaw carrier and rotatable relative to the cam body; and a brake assembly including an first brake member for engaging an upper surface coupled to the jaw carrier.
