    WPS Lifting Equipment Pull TestingPolicies and Procedures

    • For safety reasons our customers are requiring stricter controlof lifting equipment certifications. As a company Halliburtonstresses safety as a daily practice.

    • There are many types of equipment that will fall under thecategory of “Lifting Equipment” in our operations. Listed beloware examples:

    • Rig Up Equipment• Lifting Slings• Tool Lifting Caps

    • Anything that is used as lifting equipment, used in lifting, orthat is lifted must be certified

    Definition of Terms

    • Maximum Working Tension: the maximum recommendedtension load applied on the wireline cable. The vendor’spublished information points us to 50% of the breakingstrength of a new line as the best general guideline for safe

    pull on a cable.• Working Load: the maximum allowable tension load that canbe placed on a piece of equipment.

    • Hook Load: the load seen on the upstream side of a pulleyassembly. In our case it refers to the load above the topsheave; twice that of the cable pull, as it crosses the sheavewheel.

    Definition of Terms

    • Proof Load: the amount of tension that is to be applied to theLifting Equipment, in test to re-certify it for another year ofservice. The Proof Load is higher than the working load toallow for the dynamic nature (rapidly changing or shock) of theloads seen in actual operations versus the static nature of theProof Load testing.

    • Safety Factor: the Proof Load / Working Load. For overheadlifting equipment, this is a 4:1 factor.

    Definition of Terms

    • Visual Inspection: lifting equipment should be visuallyinspected any time it is used. It is recommended that this also

    be performed on a monthly basis for seldom used equipmentand is mandatory during annual recertification.

    Visual inspection should include the inspection of thelabeling to ensure it is still within certification and thecertification and ratings are still legible on the tag.

    Load Testing

    •It is the responsibility of the field operations location to re-certify lifting equipment on an annual basis.

    • Re-certification must include a Proof Test, mechanicalinspection of assemblies for wear or corrosion, and testdocumentation (certificate & tagging). Lifting equipmentassemblies shall be tested up to but not exceeding their ProofLoad.

    • It is required that a non-destructive material testing (dyepenetrate or magnetic particle / MPI) be completed on all castcomponents of the assemblies to check for cracks orinclusions.

    Load Test Color Coding

    •Color coding is mandatory for any equipment that has beenannually certified.

    • Halliburton’s color coding system will not override a customercolor code requirement. If any customer requires a color codefor annual certification identification their color code will takeprecedence over the Halliburton color code.

    • The main purpose of color coding is to make it easy to identifywhether a lifting device or lifting point is within requirements.The colors selected should be easy to see day or night, andshould be visible for an operator of a crane or fork lift.

    Load Test Color CodingWPS Color Sequence for Annual Certification of Lifting Equipment

    1. The valid color code shall only be applied after satisfactory results of an inspection.2. Other ways of color coding other than painting such as plastic, tags, etc. may be

    required for polyester slings, items that get heavy use, etc.3. Anything with an inspection interval different than one year should be identified

    accordingly.4. Customer Color Code requirements will take precedence over the Halliburton color

    code.5. Red Color Code will be used for equipment that is not fit for service.

    Pressure Gear Lifting Caps• The recommended lifting devices for pressure control

    equipment include lifting clamps, spreader bars, lifting capsand slings of the proper size for the rig up hardware beinghoisted.

    Clamps and Spreader Bars are used to rig up lubricators on thewell site.Lifting Caps are used to move and rig up BOP and heavy crossover adapters.

    All of these items must be certified and have original manufacturingand testing documentation on file. This equipment mustsuccessfully undergo a proof load test of 2 times the working loadrating prior to first entering service and must be subjected to visual

    inspections before each use and annual certification to remain inservice. All lifting equipment must be clearly marked with apermanent serialized part number and identified with the WorkingLoad Limit rating.

    What is a Crane?

    • A crane is a mechanical lifting device equipped with awinch, wire rope and sheaves that can be used both tolift and lower materials \ objects and to move themhorizontally.

    • It uses one or more simple machines to create amechanical advantage and thus move loads beyondthe normal capability of a human.

    The preferred condition under which the operation can be performed is if the hazard ofinjury or death due to electrocution has been removed.

    The following steps shall be taken to assure de - energization of the power lines:

    The power company or owner of the power lines shall de-energize the lines.

    The lines shall be visibly grounded to avoid electrical feedback and appropriately

    marked at jobsite location.

    A qualified representative of the owner of the lines or a designated representativeof the electrical utility shall be on the site to verify that all steps have beencompleted and that the lines are not energized.

    Durable signs shall be installed at the operator’s station and on the outside of thecrane warning that electrocution or serious bodily injury may occur unless minimumclearances, as specified in Table 2 are maintained between the crane or the loadbeing handled and energized power lines.

    Crane operations should cease in advance of storm nearing the area wherecrane operations are being conducted.

    The load should be landed, boom retracted and placed back into the boom rest.

    As a best practice you may resume work 30 minutes after the electrical storm has passed.
