Scenario: You are working on a drilling rig. The drill string is stuck in the wellbore. The drill crew needs to rotate the drill string to try and free it. However, the power swivel is not functioning properly.
Task: 1. Identify at least three potential issues with the power swivel that could prevent it from rotating the drill string. 2. Describe how you would troubleshoot each issue. 3. Suggest possible solutions to each problem.
**Potential Issues:** 1. **Bearing Failure:** The rotary bearing may be worn out, seized, or damaged, preventing smooth rotation. 2. **Swivel Head Malfunction:** The swivel head might be jammed or stuck, preventing the drill string from turning. 3. **Power Supply Problem:** The power supply to the swivel might be interrupted or faulty, causing the motor to malfunction. **Troubleshooting:** 1. **Bearing Failure:** * **Visual Inspection:** Check for visible damage or wear on the bearings. * **Rotation Test:** Attempt to manually rotate the swivel head. If it's stiff or does not rotate, the bearings are likely faulty. 2. **Swivel Head Malfunction:** * **Visual Inspection:** Look for any obstructions, debris, or damage around the swivel head connection. * **Manual Operation:** Attempt to manually disengage and re-engage the swivel head. 3. **Power Supply Problem:** * **Check Power Supply:** Verify the power source to the swivel motor is working correctly. * **Test Motor:** If possible, try disconnecting the motor from the swivel and testing its functionality separately. **Possible Solutions:** 1. **Bearing Failure:** Replace the damaged bearings with new ones. 2. **Swivel Head Malfunction:** Remove any obstructions and ensure the swivel head is properly engaged. Consider lubrication if necessary. 3. **Power Supply Problem:** Repair or replace the faulty power supply or motor.
