3 high performance ropes for OIL & GAS CONTENTS Ropes for Rotary Drilling Drillstar 6x19S Drillmaster 6xK19S 6xK26WS DrillmasterPlus 6xK19S 6xK26WS Every rope manufactured by Brunton Shaw UK will satisfy the Loadrite strength testing requirement. This means that a sample from each production length is tested to destruction and must either equal or exceed the published minimum breaking load. Brunton Shaw UK ensure correct and consistent diameter during manufacture by applying the rigorous Sizerite regime of diameter measurement throughout the production process. Ropes for Riser Tensioner Systems Luberite ensures that during manufacture Brunton Shaw UK ropes are fully impregnated with a controlled amount of high performance lubricant designed to minimise corrosion and maximize rope life. 4-5 PIR-IWRC PIR-IWRC RTStar 6x36WS 6x41WS RTMaster 6xK36WS 6xK41WS RTMasterPlus 6xK36WS 6xK41WS PIR-IWRC PIR-IWRC 6-7

BSUK s Rotary Drilling Lines are used in many of the world s on-shore and offshore fields. Manufactured in accordance with standards laid down by the API and ISO ANSI/API Specification 9A and ISO The range includes BSUK s DrillmasterPlus incorporating a special design polymer impregnated IWRC for proven increase in service life. Exhaustive field trials were carried out over a three year period on a semi-submersible rig operating in the North Sea. At regular slip and cut intervals, samples of the drill line were taken and subjected to detailed examination and test to determine the condition of the rope. By careful management the ton/miles achieved were increased by more than 50% at the conclusion of the trials compared with the ton/mile interval for a standard construction drill line. For slipping and cut off practice for Rotary Drilling Lines refer to API 9B, Recommended Practice on Application, Care and Use of Wire Rope for Oilfield Service.

These vital characteristics can be further enhanced by compaction and/or plastic encapsulation of the central steel core or by complete plastic impregnation of the rope itself. The benefits obtained from both types of rope are:- Greatly increased resistance to wear and fatigue Longer service life Better load bearing and sharing Higher resistance to crushing on the drum Reduced drum and sheave wear Less machine maintenance required Brunton Shaw UK s range of RTMaster Compacted strands and RTMasterPlus Compacted strands with specially designed flexible and plastic encapsulated IWRC provide a proven solution. 6
