    摘要: A rotary slip for supporting a drill string having a plurality of slip segments connected to define an opening for insertion of the drill string (14), wherein each slip segment (32, 34, 36) comprises a head region (24), a toe region (26), and an inner radial surface (50) axially extending between the head and toe regions, and wherein the inner radial surface of each slip comprises a circumferential groove (70). A plurality of axially aligned drill string gripping inserts (60) are attached to each slip segment between the head region and the circumferential groove, wherein each insert comprises a gripping surface for contacting the drill string. A load ring (90) is disposed within the circumferential groove of each slip element, the load ring comprising at least one securing element (96) which is engaged by one of the plurality of axially aligned inserts.

    摘要: A system for coupling a pipe segment to a pipe string is provided that includes a top drive assembly having an output shaft; and a pipe running tool coupled to the top drive assembly and rotatable by the output shaft of the top drive assembly. The pipe running tool includes an internal gripper for insertion within an internal diameter of the pipe segment and a tapered slip cone section, which slidably receives corresponding tapered surfaces of a plurality of slips, such that a vertical force on the slips causes the slips to move radially outwardly into gripping engagement with the internal diameter of the pipe segment, and wherein the vertical force applied to the slips is sufficient to allow the gripping engagement of the slips with the internal diameter of the pipe segment to transmit a torque from the top drive output shaft to the pipe segment.

    摘要: A pipe running tool (10) for use in an oil drilling system and the like comprises a lower drive shaft (14) adapted to engage a drive shaft (28) of a top drive assembly (24) for rotation therewith. The pipe running tool (10) further includes a lower pipe engagement assembly (16) which is driven to rotate by the lower drive shaft (14), and is designed to releasably engage a pipe segment (11) in such a manner to substantially prevent relative rotation between the two. Thus, when the lower pipe engagement assembly (16) is actuated to securely hold a pipe segment (11), the top drive assembly (24) may be actuated to rotate the top drive output shaft (28), which causes the lower drive shaft (14) and lower pipe engagement assembly (16) to rotate, which in turn rotates the pipe segment (11). The pipe running tool (10) having a greater slip back offset such that drill pipe and drill pipe tool joints (11) may be passed through the central passageway (76) of the tool (10) without interfering with the front of the slip.
