The drilling line is reeved over a set of crow block and down to another set of sheaves known as travelling block. The hook connected to travelling block is used to suspend the drilling load. One end of drilling line is wound onto the drawworks and this line is called “Fast Line”. Other end of the drilling line is tied into an anchor point on the rig floor and this line is named as “Dead Line”. The drilling line is reeved around the blocks several times in order to meet required load.
According to the diagram above, we can use basic physic to determine derrick load.
I don’t really know much about the detail of this incident. If you know, please feel free to share with us so other people will learn from this event.

Directional drilling is an advance drilling technique which can deviate wellbore to the planned trajectory in order to reach the reservoir targets. Nowadays, directional drilling is widely used around the world because it has several advantages over a normal vertical well. Oil and gas reservoir shapes has the lateral length more than vertical length so the directional drilling will have more opportunities to reach potential sands. Ultimately, hydrocarbon reserves can be extracted with the directional wells. The applications of directional drilling are as follows:
Sidetrack is the process to drill a secondary well from an existing wellbore. Directional drilling technique is applied to successfully side track. There are advantages of sidetracking well as bypassing fish, kicking off from cement plug, extend of the producing zones, etc.
These are very funny “What My Friends Think I Do – Oilfield Theme”. You might have seen some of them before.
