Tri-cone rotary drilling bit. (public display, Minnesota Discovery Center, Chisholm, Minnesota, USA)

 

Early wells were drilled using a spring pole apparatus - men would use their feet to "kick down" the drill bit and chip away at the rock (see: www.petroleumhistory.org/OilHistory/images/Cable/Sp_pole.jpg). Three feet of hole per day could be achieved using this method. As the oil industry developed, wells were drilled using cable tool rigs and later, rotary drill rigs. Most petroleum wells are drilled using rotary drill rigs. Seen here is a drilling bit for this type of rig. This is called a tri-cone bit - the knobs are made of carbide. During drilling, the three cones rotate and the knobs abrade and remove rock fragments. In addition to its use in drilling petroleum wells, tri-cone bits have also been used to drill holes at certain mines. The holes are then packed with explosives and detonated. This was done in the iron mining districts of Minnesota, for example.

In an image related to the previous one, this is a view of the original line of the Edinburgh Leith & Granton Railway as it proceeded from Granton (behind the photographer) towards Trinity, where it crossed the road before heading towards the City. By the time of this photograph the line was singled and it survived to supply vessels at Granton Harbour. It has long since been closed, the track lifted and, I believe, the embankment upon which it ran has been removed and the site landscaped.

 

In the haze one can see the cranes and grain silos of Leith Docks (and, I have just noticed, what seems to be an oil driling rig).

I had to do some work to this car. First I rebuilt the bolsters. This car came with a very small truck pin and I like to use screws. I driled out the bolster for a 0.125" diameter tube. Tapped the inside of the tube for a 2-56 Accurail screw. Then trimmed the new bolster pin to length. Next up was to add wire for the stringers on the end cages and rope pull loops. While I was doing that, I also cleaned up the mold parting lines on the brake gear. The last thing was to clean up the running board on the roof top.

 

With all that cleanup work, I knew I was going to have to repaint the car. Time to match the paint. Right out of the bottle, Tamiya XF-7 Flat Red was a perfect match. I masked the side of the car since it did not need painting and I also put a small mask over the reporting marks and road number at each end of the car. The model has a sheen to it and the Tamiya paint is flat. That is fixable though. It is customary for me to finish my models with a clear gloss varnish and then a satin varnish. The gloss unifies the colors. After shooting the gloss, the red was a perfect match. After the gloss coat dried I shot a satin clear coat and the car was done.

 

Wheels and couplers were weathered with pigments and pigment setting solution.

Actively drilling petroleum well in Licking County, Ohio, USA. (October 2016) (site access generously provided by Gary Sitler for geoscience education purposes)

 

During the late 1800s, Ohio was the # 1 petroleum exporter on Earth. This is definitely not the case anymore! Despite this, Ohio today still has economic concentrations of oil and natural gas.

 

Ohio has three significant petroleum occurrences:

 

1) Trenton Limestone (upper Middle Ordovician) of northwestern Ohio.

 

2) Clinton Sandstone (Lower Silurian) of eastern Ohio.

 

3) Knox Group (Beekmantown Dolomite-Rose Run Sandstone-Copper Ridge/Trempealeau Dolomite) (Upper Cambrian to ?lowermost Ordovician) in the eastern ~half of Ohio.

 

Of these three petroleum systems, the Knox Group generally requires the deepest drilling. Most Knox Group drilling in Ohio targets the Rose Run Sandstone, an interbedded quartzose sandstone-dolostone unit of Late Cambrian age.

 

The equipment shown above is part of an active drill site (as of late October 2016). The well was targeting a paleotopographic high at the Knox Unconformity and hoping to encounter petroleum in porous dolostone. During this visit, the rig was drilling at a depth between 3,300 and 3,400 feet below the surface.

 

The earliest wells were drilled using a spring pole apparatus - men would use their feet to "kick down" the drill bit and chip away at the rock (see: www.petroleumhistory.org/OilHistory/images/Cable/Sp_pole.jpg). Three feet of hole per day could be achieved using this method. As the oil industry developed, wells were drilled using cable tool rigs and later, rotary drill rigs. Most Ohio oil wells are drilled using rotary drill rigs. Shown above is the actual drilling bit for this type of rig. This is called a tri-cone bit - the knobs are made of carbide. During drilling, the three cones rotate and the knobs abrade and remove rock fragments.

 

Update: as of spring 2017, this well was making 100 to 125 MCF a day (= 100 to 125 thousand cubic feet of natural gas) and 10 barrels of oil per day. The producing horizon is in the Upper Cambrian Copper Ridge Dolomite (also known as the Trempealeau Dolomite). Petroleum is coming from porous dolostones below the Knox Unconformity. The Knox is a megasequence boundary (Sloss sequence boundary) that separates the Sauk Megasequence below from the Tippecanoe Megasequence above.

 

The following are formation picks for this well (the numbers are from the completion record filed with the Ohio Division of Natural Resources, Division of Oil and Gas Resources):

 

430 feet depth = top of the Berea Sandstone (lowermost Devonian)

 

1182 feet depth = top of the "Big Lime" (= Devonian and Silurian carbonate succession, including the Delaware Limestone, Columbus Limestone, and Silurian dolostones)

 

1940 feet depth = top of the "Packer Shell" (= Middle Silurian Dayton Formation equivalent)

 

3252 feet depth = Trenton Limestone (upper Middle Ordovician, sensu traditio; lower Upper Ordovician, sensu novo)

 

3790 feet depth = Gull River Limestone (Middle Ordovician)

 

3830 feet depth = Knox Unconformity with Trempealeau Dolomite below (Upper Cambrian)

 

According to State of Ohio records, this well has produced the following:

 

2017 - 38 barrels of oil, 12,660 MCF of natural gas (= thousands of cubic feet of natural gas), 516 barrels of brine (= salt water)

 

2018 - 59 barrels of oil, 2828 MCF of natural gas, 175 barrels of brine

 

2019 - 144 MCF of natural gas

 

2020 - 21 MCF of natural gas, 130 barrels of brine

 

2021 - no production

The last thing was to clean up the running board on the roof top.

 

With all that clean up work, I knew I was going to have to repaint the car. Time to match the paint. The paint match for this car is to start with a 50/50 mix of Tamiya XF-80 Royal Light Gray and XF-2 White. Then add more white until it matches. I masked the side of the car since it did not need painting and I also put a small mask over the reporting marks and road number at each end of the car. The model has a sheen to it and the Tamiya paint is flat. That is fixable though. It is customary for me to finish my models with a clear gloss varnish and then a satin varnish.

First things first I need somewhere solid to clamp my wood. I decided to butcher my first proper wood working project, which is a huge solid subwoofer box, it's even still got the driver in it!

 

I driled and chiseled some holes as you can see so when it's stood on end I can clamp the wood to it.

Kosun solid control provides the high effecient and environmental solution for oilfield driling waste disposal which make drilling fluids used recyclingly, reduce the cost of drilling.

Either in oil drilling or gas drilling, the drilling waste can be created through the whole drilling processing, however, effective waste treatment will reduce the amount of the waste and the drilling cost naturally.

 

kosun solids control equipment includes shale shaker, centrifuge, desander, desilter, vacuum degasser, sand pump, agitator and mud tank, as well as horizontal centrifuge and disc centrifuge

 

which are used in a variety of applications:

 

oil and gas drilling, coalbed methane drilling, trenchless drilling, sandstone staged treatment, ore staged treatment,

industrial wastewater treatment for river dredging, waste oil recovery and purification treatment.

Brakes are not very important in the Indianapolis 500 Race. These are the minimum needed, and built more to reduce weight than to make repeated quick stops from high speed, as would be more important in a road race car.

old scanned pictures by Kodak :) lousy quality, for me its the memory :))

These giant pipes must have something to do with driling. Some of them were sealed on one end or the other. Next trip, I'll have my dad or Teri crawl inside one.

At the upper right, in the shadow, is one of the Green Line stumps that will be used to conneect with the Crenshaw Corridor. At left (yellow) machinery is driling a hole for a rebar column to support the connection to the westbound stump. The Green Line has just emerged from the median of the I-105 freeway (in the background). I-105 is an "interstate" highway but never leaves California, or even Los Angeles County. It does not connect to either I-10 or I-5. At one time it was supposed to continue to I-5 but the link was never built due to "community opposition" - it now ends with an always jammed connection with I-605 and an almost useless stub (carpools only) ending at a city street. Anyone driving alone cannot easily (or legally) get to Imperial Highway at the east (Norwalk) end of I-105 -- punishment for not allowing the extension to I-5.

fun fact: train stopsigns have to be blue. it's a thing.

This begins the final chapter of the tunnel. Core were being driled out of the this piece. terry shuck has the core of this piece.

How sad so see such a beautiful piece of art disappear.

This is the 3-D counterweight system I decided to implement on my LX200. I started out using an ankle weight for the RA balance, but there just wasn't any type of adjustment. I was a little hesitant about driling a hole, but it sure adjusts nicely now. I doubt very much that it has any effect on flexture in the mount. Besides, it looks a lot better than an ankle weight...
