What is EDR in drilling?

The M/D Totco™ RigSense™ electronic drilling recorder (EDR) reaches far beyond basic instrumentation with its flexible touchscreen interfaces and multifunction displays. Much more than just a drill floor monitor, it allows the drillers to configure screens to display drilling information that best suits their needs.

What is rig sense?

Rig-Sense is a new rig tension device for measuring the loads in wire or rope on dinghies and small keelboats. Rig-Sense is simple to use, measuring the tension directly in kilogrammes. Rig-Sense also benefits from being able to be operated one handed, supporting itself on the rig whilst being used.

What is EDR in oil and gas?

In the increasingly fast-paced wellsite environment, timely access to important drilling information is critical to a project’s success.

How is rig tension measured?

METHOD: Start with both cap shrouds hand-tight. The rig is stayed with the lower shrouds and the forestay and backstay. Attach the 2m rule with the adhesive tape at the top to the starboard shroud about 5mm from the upper end of the wire terminal. Measure the distance accurately using the Vernier callipers.

How does a Loos gauge work?

The gauges work on the principle that if you bend a cable by applying a specific amount force, it will bend more or less depending on the size of the cable and how much tension is on the cable. The larger or the more tension on the cable, the less bend. The smaller or the less tension on the cable, the more bend.

What do spreaders do on a mast?

Spreaders are struts attached to the sides of a mast to hold the shrouds away from the mast and increase the angle at which they meet the mast. The greater the angle between shroud and mast, the lower the shroud tension required to provide lateral support and, therefore, the less the compression on the mast.

How tight should shrouds be on sailboat?

First, straighten the mast using the outer shrouds. To tune, outer shrouds should be a few turns past hand tight, inner shrouds should be hand tight, not slack, but not tense either.
