power tong operator job description for sale

You’re the one with the power – the power tongs, that is. You control the equipment that threads sections of drill casing to form the pipe that is placed hundreds of metres into the ground. When you arrive at site, the rig crew knows it’s time to get to work. Your strength and dexterity serve you well in this occupation.

Power tong operators control the equipment that threads sections of drill casing into the wellbore. As a member of the oilfield well services team, they are responsible for operating power tongs, torque measuring equipment and tube/casing handling equipment at the well site. Casing is required to maintain an oil or gas well’s structural integrity, prevent the cross-contamination of water with other fluids and control well pressure during the drilling, production and maintenance of the well. Power tong operators must be able to transport equipment to and from the well location, safely rig in and operate the equipment, perform day-to-day inspections, servicing and maintenance of equipment, and complete all required paperwork accurately and on time.

Compact Size and Big Torque! If this is what you are looking for in a power tong, look no further. Our 5½ Hydra-Shift® is sized smaller in width than our 5½ Standard model. Like all of our newly developed tongs, the 5½ incorporates the Hydra-Shift® technology, allowing the operator to shift from high speed to low speed without having to shift the tong manually. You will see many years of trouble-free operation, not to mention the smoother hydraulic shifting. With two models to choose from, Eckel has the right 5½ Hydra-Shift® for your needs. The 5½ Hydra-Shift® (VS) with a two-speed motor and a two-speed gear train offers the operator a more flexible choice of torque/RPM"s to work with during make-up or break-out. At the beginning of the job, the operator will choose which tong gear ratio is most appropriate for the current tubular connections and adjust the mechanical shifting lever. During make-up or break-out, further adjustments are actuated through the two-speed motor. Slide heads with rig dies are available for handling drill pipe tool joints.

Texas International Oilfield Tools (TIOT) offers a free standing test stand for testing of hydraulic casing and tubing power tongs. The test stand is designed to resist torque applied by a power tong through a test mandrel.

The test stand is an air operated device that utilizes a hydraulic active dual spring disc brake chamber in order to apply friction force (“brake” action) to the rotating (or stationary) test mandrel mechanism. The power tong is tested by applying torque to the test stand’s mandrel. The test stand’s brake is activated by pushing and twisting clockwise the red control box button on the control box. A brake foot pedal is supplied as backup for the mini power unit. Using the control box mounted on the test stand, the black knob regulates pressure.
