INTRODUCTION
Short about Lidan Engineering.
The company is linked back to 1909,
when the Lidan Motor Company
designed and manufactured marine
winches driven by semi diesel engines.
After a time span of about 75 years
these winches developed into large
hydrostatic driven mooring winch
systems for offshore semisubmersible
platforms. To-day the responsible
company for offshore winches is Lidan
Marine AB, while Lidan Engineering
AB is responsible for diesel-hydraulic drive and braking control systems of
drawworks for offshore/ onshore drilling and workover. Since Lidan Engineering
installed the first Band Brake Control System on a Transocean semi-submersible
drillrig in 1985, the company has included an Autodriller System and an Anti
collision System to its product range.
Through the years the company continuously has developed and improved these
systems and has received DNV (Det Norske Veritas) type approval for the
systems for application on drillrigs world wide. The systems comply with:
1.
“DNV-OS-E101 Offshore Standard, Drilling Plant”,
October 2000.
2.
“NPD´s Regulations relating to design and outfitting of
facilities etc. in the petroleum activities (The facilities
regulations)”, 3 September 2001.
3.
“NMD´s Regulations of 4th September 1987, amended 2,
March 1999, concerning construction of mobile offshore
units, § 22”.
4.
UK SI 1992:2932, “The Provision and Use of Work
Equipment Regulations, 1992”, regulation 5(1) relating to
initial integrity and purpose for which it is intended to be used.

The drawworks for land and offshore drillrigs are traditionally composed by a
drum assembly, driven by SCR controlled electromotors through a chain
transmission. The drum is disconnected by an air clutch. At lowering, the drum is
controlled by two independent braking systems; the main brake and the auxiliary
brake. The auxiliary brake is normally an Eddy Current Brake (ECB), which is
connected to the drawworks main shaft through a coupling. The main brake
consists of two brake bands, acting onto the drum rims, and controlled by a heavy
steel lever through a linkage system
Over the years, Lidan Engineering has gained a solid reputation for upgrading of
drawworks of the band brake type, by marketing a unique band brake servo
control system.
Along with increased drilling complexity, improvement of drawworks control
properties has become an important issue. The most significant are:
-
the Autodriller system, which aids the driller to maintain a steady weight on
the drill bit (WOB) and a continuous line Feed Off in order to increase the
drilling parameters and to save the bit wearing for fewer round trips.
-
the Block Control System, which protects for collision of the travelling block
against the drillfloor, the crown block, racking arms or dolly retract failure
-
the Servo Control system of the band brakes, increases braking precision
when controlling heavy loads at high speeds and, at the same time, the small,
but rigid servo handle eliminates stress and physical workload to the driller,
which is applied at operating the traditional heavy brake lever.
There are several brands and types of Autodriller systems available on the market.
While other Autodriller systems, require the ECB to be substituted by a Disc
Brake, Lidan can offer the Autodriller still keeping the ECB auxiliary brake as is,
to be utilized for the purpose it was originally designed for!
This has been made possible because the Lidan system controls the drill line Feed
Off by means of the existing brake bands. At the same time, in addition to the
Autodriller system, Lidan can offer a Block Control and Band Brake Servo
Control system.

Updated 2005-01
When designing the Automated Driller system for drillrigs with the drawworks of
band brake type in mind, the key issue was to create a high sensitive band brake
actuator. The development work, with many improvements implemented
gradually over the years, finally resulted in an in-line dual function servo brake
actuator. It incorporates one active and one passive part. The active part is for
responding on the hydraulic signals from the Autodriller system, as well as, when
operating in tripping mode, the signals from drillers brake handle. The passive
part is for an emergency fail safe “brake to full stop” function. This dual in-line
actuator is the heart of the Lidan Autodriller Feed Off function, which has no
analogues on the market.
The Autodriller control functions and the Brake handle is on one common
console, which, when it is time to add a new stand, the shifting from
“autodrilling” to “manual control” simply is by pushing a button on the console.
The console comes either as a pedestal or alternatively, as a panel for integration
with a driller’s main console.
The Lidan Autodriller controls the Feed Off through the band brakes without any
influence on the electric brake as is the case when drilling by hand.
In order to prevent for too much of Feed Off , the driller often must apply a short
moment of electric brake activation, with overheating problems as consequence!
2.1.
Lidan ADS Autodriller system for land rigs, jack up and platform rigs
is user-friendly and it’s functions easy understandable. The ADS Autodriller
system is designed for a high degree of precision in drum line pay out (Feed Off)
and Weight on Bit (WOB) control. This will assure maximum Rate of Penetration
(ROP) utilization, adjustable between 0-120 m/h (on request up to 300 m/h).
With a servo hydraulic encoder motor, linked to the drum shaft via a chain
transmission and hydraulically connected to the brake actuator, a closed loop feed
back system is created, which delivers an absolute steady “Constant Speed” drill
line Feed Off. Co-ordinated with the WOB electronic function, the system keeps
bit weight within very narrow limits, sometimes as little as +/-100 kg. Feed Off
setting is stored during shift of drill pipes and setting of WOB is fully repeatable.

2.2
Lidan DBS Servo Braking system
is especially designed as an aid to increase drill floor work productivity and to
improve driller’s surveillance over the increasing number of instruments and
systems around him. The DBS replaces the traditional solid steel brake lever by a
small, but rigid, handle control. The objective with the DBS brake handle control
is to mimic driller’s habitual action with the mechanical brake lever and to
preserve a direct feed back through the
brake handle. This, in combination with an
easy coordination to the eddy current brake
control handle, will appeal to driller’s
confidence and feeling for hook load
versus velocity. Comparing the drillers
work with the steel lever, the brake handle
virtually eliminates the physical effort
required to control or stop the hook travel,
especially when operating high loads. It
also eliminates for fatigue injuries and
accidences. E.g. the well known
phenomena, when the steel lever,
unexpectedly and violently, strikes down,
triggered by the Crown O’Matic top limit
system, with the potential risk to hit the
driller.
The DBS Brake Actuator incorporates dual functions, one active and one passive.
The active function is directed from drillers brake handle for general block
travelling operations, or, when drilling in
automated mode, from the ADS Autodriller
system. The passive actuator, with its fail safe
spring function, is triggered to apply
automatically at a situation when, without
driller’s notice, an emergency situation is about to
occur.
The latest model, with the “active” and “passive”
functions integrated in one compact “in line”
actuator, is designed especially with land rigs in
mind. With its reduced dimensions it fits into all
types and sizes of drawworks with band brakes.

2.3
Lidan BCS Anti collision System
The Autodriller and Brake Servo system is prepared for simultaneous or later
installation of an Anti-collision system. The Lidan BCS Anti collision System
is supervised by calculated function of weight, velocity and current block
position at down and up travel of the block. In order to keep the travelling
block within stored speed limit profiles, a programmable logic controller
directs the signals to the auxiliary electric brake for soft braking action. At
approaching a preset limit distance to the floor, the crown block, or, if the
racking arms accidentally are being moved into a collision risk area, the
Electric Brake gets energized. If required, should not driller take action, the
fail safe actuator becomes activated to bring the block into a full stop.
All parameters are supervised by a Drillers Terminal with LCD display,
positioned on the drillers console.
The automatic Anti collision System works in parallel with driller’s manual
control of the electric brake and the band brake. Should the driller supersede
the block limit profiles, the automatic system will interfere and support
braking through the electric brake and the band brake. The automatic
braking action is accompanied with an audible and visual alarm. This will
alert the driller to increase his own manual braking activity, which in all
cases override the automatic braking. In autodrilling mode the anti collision
system will automatically stop of the Feed Off and apply the brake, when
reaching the set position where the current drill pipe length is drilled off.
The display menu automatically changes for “autodrilling mode” when
switched “On” on the console. The travel limit settings for drilling the pipe
can be set and stored accordingly.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION
4.1
BRAKE SERVO FOR BLOCK TRAVEL OPERATION:
The DBS brake handle is controlled in
near identical fashion to that employed
for the conventional brake lever. The
analogue property of the brake handle is
designed with a high resolution for
ultimate sensitivity at creep speed control
in the handle. This feature makes it easy
to identify the `sweet spot' where the load
and the friction counter force reach
equilibrium. The increased resolution is
concentrated especially at this point,
which in turn gives a direct feeling for
`load in hand'.
The brake handle governs the “active” function of the brake actuator, working on
a brake arm on the drawworks brake shaft. For safety, a set of cup springs
provides a fail-safe “passive” brake actuator function, standing by to trigger its
spring force to apply the band brake. When applying the “spring brake” a
sequential load-sharing function between the two actuator functions prevents for
undesired brake reinforcement at the transition between the two braking modes.
The fail-safe spring brake
becomes activated:
- At loss of hydraulic servo
pressure
- At loss of air pressure
- At electric mains failure
- On manual activation of the
emergency stop palm button
- When the crown limit setting
is exceeded, at a signal from
a Crown 'o Matic or other
anti collision system options
.

4.2
AUTODRILLING OPERATION:
From the Control Console the driller directs the Brake Actuator and activates the
Autodriller Feed off and WOB functions. Drillers transition from Autodrilling
mode to Pipe handling mode is instant, which is an important aid to reduce the
effect of a drillstring “torqueing up”.
FEED OFF MODE
The qualities of the Autodriller function goes back to the performance of the
servo brake system as executive body.
The extraordinary creep speed braking characteristics of the brake servo and
brake actuator system makes the ADS Autodriller system to a tool for a highly
increased drilling efficiency.
The Feed-Off system is a fully hydraulic system, integrated with the brake servo
actuator system.
The Feed Off system works as a regulator loop composed by an integral system of
1) The active brake actuator, hydraulically connected to the servo hydraulic
encoder motor and mechanically connected to the brake shaft and the brake
band linkage.
2) The hydraulic encoder motor, which is mechanically connected to the wire
rope drum via a chain transmission, provides feed back information of the
motion of the wire rope drum to the active brake actuator
The feed back system delivers an absolute steady “Constant Speed” drill line Feed
Off. The hydraulic encoder motor is powered by the HPU and its rotating speed
is controlled from drillers Control Console by means of the Feed Off control
knob. The adjusted setting of the R.P.M. of the encoder motor is proportional to
the Feed Off Rate on hook. The Feed Off can be adjusted from 0 to120 m/hour
(as option up to 300 m/h).
The equilibrium point, where the drum rotation aligns with the Feed Off rate, the
“Sweet Spot”, is automatically and immediately established, independent of string
weight and Feed Off speed. This feature can easily be observed by temporarily
putting the “old” mechanical lever into the adaptor to demonstrate how the
“indicator” distinctly enters into its equilibrium position at an angle which
corresponds to the actual load in the string. Always, from hold through increasing
Feed Off speed, it can be noticed a near to identical angle of the “indicator”,
oscillating gently around the equilibrium angle, which in turn visualizes that very
stable and even dynamic forces are applied to the string and the brake linkage.
In fact, by using the Feed Off “constant speed” control as a single means for
drilling, the driller would consider it as an efficient “drilling assist” tool per say!

Should a drill break happen, the regulated Feed Off decent will simply stay firm –
a drop in bit weight only would be indicated on the Weight Indicator.
2. WOB MODE:
The driller uses the “Feed off” mode until he reaches the desired WOB, indicated
on the Weight Indicator. At pressing the WOB “On” push button, the WOB is
“set” and the Autodriller computer becomes active. The bit weight remains
initially within a preset span e.g. +/- 300 kg. Along with the computer’s
calculating against a dedicated algorithm, the fluctuation of the bit weight
successively gets reduced to as much as 50% or less, which means a WOB set
target value, e.g. 10 ton +/- < 150 kg.
Two indication lamps remain steady green lightning confirm that WOB is within
permitted span. If by any reason the WOB should come outside of the preset
span on plus or minus side, he corresponding indication lamp will start flashing,
i.e. should the green lamp for WOB low start to flash, it will notice the driller to
increase Feed Off . Typically,” WOB low” flashing would apply in case of a drill
break, thus immediately alerting the driller about the situation!
Within a few seconds the drilling mode may be switched over to hoisting mode,
e.g. when it is time to shift for a new drill pipe stand, or, in an emergency
situation, should a torque up tendency call for an urgent drill string pull up. By
pushing the Feed Off button, the Autodriller function interrupts, indicated by the
shut off of the green light indications. The driller may now release the brake by
means of the servo control handle and operate the clutch and drawworks throttle
as usual. When again driller wishes to resume drilling, the Feed Off rate and
WOB setting remains stored as was previously adjusted and he simply proceeds
the drilling operation by pushing ROP and WOB “on”.

ANTI COLLISION SYSTEM OPERATION
The anti collision system is operated from the Operator’s Terminal, which is
mounted on an adjustable arm on the Control Console. Setting of the desired set
points is by travelling the travelling block to corresponding positions and pushing
a button for setting of the floor, crown, the lower and upper racking arm positions,
dolly retract system, etc.
The Anti collision system as Floor saver :
The LCD display indicates the travelling speed in m/s (feet/s) and distance to
Floor in meters (feet). When superseding the calculated weight versus speed and
distance to a potential collision property, a buzzer alarm alerts the driller that the
electric brake becomes initiated and simultaneously calls for his attention to take
action for manual braking. If driller is not taking action, the PLC continuously
directs the signals to the auxiliary brake (the electric brake) for soft and successive
braking, in order to maintain the travelling block within stored speed limit
profiles. At approaching the preset limit distance to the floor at slow speed, a
signal is given for the brake servo actuator to energize, which brings the block
into a full stop at the set limit.
An override function is established by pushing a function key. The buzzer alarm
is pulsating to alert driller, as well as is an “override” displayed on screen.
Another function key gives information about elapsed “Ton-Miles”.
The Anti collision system as Crown saver:
Interfaced to the SCR system and driller's foot throttle, the Anti collision system
surveys the velocity of the block at up-travel. To remain within the speed profiles,
driller’s foot throttle overrides and shuts down until the speed corresponds to the
profile.

In case of a high/high speed approach, the throttle “shut down” triggers
correspondingly earlier. At close to final approach, the slow down is supported by
activating the electric brake. At a normal low speed rate the driller proceeds
hoisting for his final full brake stop. Should he exceed the set limit point, the
brake servo actuator triggers to apply the band brakes, simultaneously as the
clutch air pressure is released. If required, he may proceed at override, which is
switched on from the driller’s console. To protect from collision at override mode,
for additional safety, the existing toggle valve (Crown O’Matic) may be used, set
at a “permitted ultimate high block level”. At this point the toggle valve triggers a
pilot signal to the spring actuator to apply the band brake for a full stop.
Although the encoder for the block travel is of the “absolute” type, the block
position is continuously monitored by an up-date sensor, positioned at the
guide rail half way up the travelling distance, which will inform the computer
that correct setting positions remain firm.
The Anti collision system for Racking Arms and Dolly Collision protection:
Interfacing the sensors for the upper and lower racking arms, the system will
take action, should a racking arm become extended into collision risk area.
The Anti collision system will alert alarm to notice the driller and at the same
time, if the driller is not reacting, a ”slow down to stop” procedure becomes
activated. Interface may be provided to protect also from collision to the drill
string compensator or to the dolly.
Autodriller mode display configuration.
When pushing the Autodriller Feed Off push button, the terminal display
automatically changes for corresponding information for the Autodrilling mode:
- ROP in m/hour (feet/hour)
- Feed Off in m/hour ( feet/hour)
- WOB in t (pounds)
- WOB variation bar graph (low or high span dependent of primary/secondary
setting)
- Drill pipe “drilled off “distance to floor set point
- Elapsed time since start of drillpipe “drill off”
- Expected time for drillpipe “drilled off”
