Abstract:
in oil and gas upstream industry, hoisting drum winch are essential piece of equipment for both onshore and offshore drilling and service rigs. Large diameter hoisting split drum winch has a wide applications for wireline equipment but with very limited structure design study and very high failure rate due to amount force exerting on its barrel core and flanges. To better resolve this issue, a large diameter split drum winch new structure design study is exploited and a finite element analysis-FEA study is also conducted to guide welding, machining, and manufacturing. Experimental and actual oilfield operational results show that the new structure design for the split drum winch is quite robust and provides good results in terms of reliability and customer satisfaction.
