A pipe cutter with gauge and reamer/beveller of the cut edges of pipe. On the body of the pipe cutter there is at least one gauge; between it and the body a cavity is delimited capable of accepting the end of a pipe (t); each gauge having on its end a mouth that varies its diameter between a minimum (d1) at its base and a maximum (d) that coincides with the gauge of the pipe (t) it accepts. There is also at least one blade on each existing gauge or on a beveller equipped with one or several portions (S) with at least one blade on each of them. A pipe (t) is inserted in the corresponding gauge, first gauging the diameter of its cut edge and then the blades simultaneously bevel and ream the cut pipe (t) edge.

A method is for cutting a tubular structure in the petrochemical industry, using a cutting tool having a non-rotatable cutting element and a reaction member opposite to the non-rotatable cutting element. The cutting tool is further configured for carrying out a translational cutting movement through the tubular structure. The method comprises: a) positioning the cutting tool in a first position exterior to the tubular structure; b) squeezing the tubular structure at the first position by activating a partial translational cutting movement of the non-rotatable cutting element to obtain a dented region in the tubular structure; c) positioning the cutting tool in a second position exterior to the tubular structure, wherein the second position is displaced over a predefined distance compared to the first position, and d) cutting the tubular structure at the second position (P2) by activating a full translational cutting movement of the non-rotatable cutting element through the tubular structure.

A service tool for cutting and plugging a fluid line includes a body having a receiving portion configured to receive the fluid line, a clamping mechanism movable relative to the body and configured to clamp around at least a portion of an outer circumference of the fluid line when the fluid line is received in the receiving portion, and a cutting blade configured to engage the fluid line and cut the fluid line into a first cut portion and a second cut portion. The service tool further includes a hub associated with the body, the hub including a plugging mechanism configured to dispense a plug or a valve into the second cut portion of the fluid line.

A method is for cutting a tubular structure, such as a drill string, at a drill floor of a drilling rig. The method includes the following steps: i) providing a cutting tool at the drill floor comprising a non-rotatable cutting element configured for carrying out a translational cutting movement through the tubular structure; ii) positioning the cutting tool in cutting position exterior to the tubular structure; iii) fixing the position of the cutting tool with respect to the tubular structure, and iv) activating the cutting tool for cutting the tubular structure by using a translation movement of the at least one cutting element through the tubular structure. A cutting tool is for use in such method.

An apparatus for the orbital cutting and calibration of tubes is provided. The apparatus has a rotor having a central hole through which a tube to be cut is movable along its longitudinal axis, the rotor being drivable to rotate about a first axis of rotation coinciding in use with the longitudinal axis of the tube that is supplied to the apparatus. The apparatus has a cutting device having a first support body mounted radially movable on the rotor and a cutting tool carried by the first support body, and a calibration device having a second support body mounted to be radially movable on the rotor and a calibration tool carried by the second support body.
