  2. List of components of oil drilling rigs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_components_of_oil...

    Mud pump (#4) is a reciprocal type of pump used to circulate drilling fluid through the system. Mud tank (#1) is often called mud pits and stores drilling fluid until it is required down the wellbore. Setback (#17) is a part of the drill floor (#21) where the stands of drill pipe are stood upright. It is typically made of a metal frame ...

  3. Volute (pump) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volute_(pump)

    Pump and volute casing. A volute is a curved funnel that increases in area as it approaches the discharge port. [1] The volute of a centrifugal pump is the casing that receives the fluid being pumped by the impeller, maintaining the velocity of the fluid through to the diffuser. As liquid exits the impeller it has high kinetic energy and the ...

    Casing Diameters of a Borehole Casing Diagram premium gas tight connections on a casing string. Casing is a large diameter pipe that is assembled and inserted into a recently drilled section of a borehole. Similar to the bones of a spine protecting the spinal cord, casing is set inside the drilled borehole to protect and support the wellstream.

  5. Production tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_tubing

    Production casing is the final casing string set in a well and usually reaches from the surface to Target Depth (TD). The type of casing used depends upon the different conditions in the well. Commonly, production casing sizes range from 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (110 mm) to as large as 9 + 5 ⁄ 8 in (240 mm). It is the last string cemented in a well ...

  6. Casing hanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casing_hanger

    The surface casing serves as a foundation pile for the well which transfers the hanging load to the earth. The casing head is prepared with a bowl into which the slips sit and chuck the casing in place. Most casing heads allow for the pressure readings to be taken on the annulus and provide the means to pump out or into if necessary. The top of ...

  7. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Another type of self-priming pump is a centrifugal pump with two casing chambers and an open impeller. This design is not only used for its self-priming capabilities but also for its degassing effects when pumping two-phase mixtures (air/gas and liquid) for a short time in process engineering or when handling polluted fluids, for example, when ...
