Roughnecks frequently had to apply floor wipers and high pressure water gun to clean and maintain the drillfloor from mudspills.

Kelly hose - a flexible, high-pressure hose that connects the standpipe to the kelly (or more specifically to the gooseneck on the swivel above the kelly) and allows free vertical movement of the kelly, while facilitating the flow of the drilling fluid

through the system and down the drill string.

Goose-neck - thick metal elbows connected to the swivel and standpipe that

supports the weight of and provides a downward angle for the kelly hose to hang

from.

What is the difference between a drill with a hammer function and an impact drill?

The hammer function makes the tool make hits (like a hammer) without rotating. The impact drill means it will make hits and rotate at the same time. Usually you would use a masonry drill bit withe the impact drill function and a chisel for the hammer function.

What is difference between weld neck flange and slip on weld flange?

http://www.tubecraftflange.com/products/slipon.htmTubeSlip-On Flanges are probably the most common type of flanges in the industry and are ideal for lower pressure applications. You do not have to specify the pipe schedule when using slip-on flanges due to the fact that its inside diameter is determined by the outside diameter of the pipe. This outside diameter of the pipe does not change for the different schedules. This often makes these easier to stock for vendors. Fabricators also like the fact that these flanges are slightly easier to align than weld neck flanges. They also are slightly easier to cut pipe to the proper length for. They can be used for high temperature and pressure applications but are not generally recommended as compared to other types of flanges. ASME B16.5 Code limits their usage in the 1500#-2500# (lbs.) weight classes.

What is tripping pipe on an oil rig?

The term "tripping the well" got it's start most likely as a reference to the "round trip" made by the drill bit. The first leg of the trip is coming out of the hole, by lifting the entire drill string and unscrewing the upper most drill pipe called a joint, the newly removed drill pipe is laid beside the rig and the drill string is lifted again, etc. until all drill pipe is out of the hole. After service work is performed, for example change to fresh drill bit, then the second leg of the trip is to reverse the process, lowering the drill string as each new joint is made until fully back in the hole with the bit on bottom. You can find a lot of interesting videos on offshore rigs, jobs, etc here: I left the previous answer in place: When drill pipe is lowered or put into the well in the well, it is called running in or is tripping into the well. When drill pipe is raised or pull out of the well, it is call running out or tripping out of the well.
