Rig-ready tubulars

Dear members

At a recent DWOP, we were discussing the benefits of preparing tubulars ("Rig ready") before sending them to the rig.  This was for casing (sizes inclusing 13⅜")
  • Pre-measure
  • Drift
  • Pre-install centralisers (solid and/or spring-bow)
If done properly (QA-QC essential), then there are little downsides to relieving the rig crew of this task (safety, time) and we are aware that a lot of companies are doing this.

If possible, please could you share with us your experience in this regard or, better still, your yard preparation procedures, any additional checks that you make etc.  Also any other considerations/issues with racking offshore.

We are already aware of the need to be careful where centralisers are placed with regards to handling and make-up equipment.

Many thanks

Dave
