Masts and derricks support enormous loads when drilling and running casing. API-recommended practice for mast and derrick inspections is a critical element to avoiding potentially non-productive time or even serious incidents and catastrophic events during drilling operations or following rig reactivation.

NDTCCS offers full API 4G derrick inspections in line with API-recommended practice. API-recommended practice 4G has established four categories for drilling and well servicing structure inspections and sets forth personnel qualifications for these inspections.

• CATEGORY I: Category I inspections are carried out by general rig personnel conducting daily observation of the mast/derrick and substructure during operation to determine indications of inadequate performance.

• CATEGORY II: Category II inspections are performed by personnel having adequate experience and knowledge in masts/derricks.

• CATEGORY III: Our Category III inspectors are in possession of a recognized degree, certificate, or professional standing, or who by knowledge, training, or experience have successfully demonstrated the ability to resolve problems related to the subject matter or work in question.

• CATEGORY IV: Category IV inspections are closely supervised by a professional engineer, original equipment manufacturer representative or other manufacturer of drilling structures’ authorized representative.  Category IV inspectors satisfy the requirements of Category III inspectors and are also qualified to perform weld inspections.

Handling/Hoisting tools play a major part in any modern drilling operation. They are used for suspending, moving, and rotating tubular in and around the well center and on the drill floor.

Conducts inspection on several types of handling tools and equipment as per applicable API Recommended Practice/OEM manuals/Client Procedures to identify defects, which may lead to Equipment failure.

• Elevators 
• Tongs 
• Slips 
• Safety Clamps 
• Manual Tongs 
• Elevator Spider
• Crown Blocks
• Drilling Hooks
• Top Drive System
• Travelling Block
• High Pressure Lines
• Kelly Hose & Vibrator Hose
• Rotary Table
• Bushings

Introduction and Basic Information

An ever-increasing emphasis on preventing dropped objects is spreading through the industry. It is essential to create an increased vigilance and awareness of the workplace NDTCCS has been constantly working to combat dropped objects incidents.
