  • a drilling tool When drilling deep wells, for example for the extraction of oil and natural gas or for the production of energy from geothermal energy, a drilling tool is used, which is driven by a drill string consisting of drill string and drill string parts such as drill collars, drill motors or the like. As such, as drilling progresses, additional drill rods must be added to the drill string during drilling progress. These drill rods are fed from the outside. For this purpose, a pipe bearing is provided in addition to the drilling rig. Furthermore, during the creation of the deep hole, it is necessary to change the drilling tool either because it is worn or the geological conditions have changed, and therefore a different kind of tool becomes necessary. To change the drilling tool, the entire drill string must be removed from the well, and after a new drilling tool has been provided, reinstalled. For this purpose, the drill rods of the drill string, for example, in large systems,
  • CONFIRMATION COPY Removed and installed two or three times at a time, and placed upright in the tower of the rig. If this camp is full in the tower, then the boring bars that are still to be removed or installed must be removed from the drilling rig. For small plants without the possibility of placing pipes in the tower, the boring bars are placed directly in the pipe storage.
  • a known embodiment provides a pipe bearing that is connected via an inclined plane with the drilling rig.
  • the drill pipe is transported via this inclined plane by means of a lifting device in the drilling rig, and then supplied with the lifting device of the drilling rig and installed.
  • This procedure is associated with a lot of manual work and the risk of injury.
  • the storage location for the drill rods outside of the drilling rig involves a large well site, which is not necessarily beneficial in certain applications.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a pipe bearing, with which a drilling rig can be automated with tubular bodies and can be supplied safely and quickly with low maintenance in a simple manner.
  • the advantage here is that it is possible to carry out the handling of the pipe support completely vertically by the execution of the pipe bearing, which is a considerable simplification process and saves energy, since not every pipe body must be transferred from the necessary vertical to the horizontal.
  • a further teaching of the invention provides that the removal device has a horizontally effective holding and / or gripping element, wherein the vertically acting holding and / or gripping element is preferably movable horizontally away from the removal device. This allows a safe vertical transport.

As a result, racks can be added or removed during operation. It is also advantageous to provide several recordings, whereby a continuous operation is possible.
  • Another teaching of the invention provides that the removal device between a receiving / dispensing position in front of the receiving sections and a transfer / receiving position for transferring the tubular body to a pipe handler or for receiving the tubular body is moved by a pipe handler. This enables automation of the process.
  • the object according to the invention is achieved by a method in which the tubular bodies are arranged in a rack to form a batch, the rack being substantially horizontal to a tube store is delivered and rotatably arranged in a receiving portion of the pipe support about a horizontal axis of rotation, the frame is then lifted and locked in the pipe support from a substantially horizontal position to a vertical position, each vertical pipe body is removed with a removal device from the vertical frame and on a pipe handler is supplied, which feeds the Rohrköper the Bohr Scheme.
  • Another teaching of the invention provides that a control is provided, wherein preferably the tubular body and / or racks are noted in an inventory list and particularly preferably the inventory list is taken into account in the control.
  • tubular bodies are placed in the rack prior to delivery to the drill site for the batch.
  • Another teaching of the invention provides that the green body is lifted with the removal device from below and removed from the frame.
  • a further teaching of the invention provides that the frame is raised from a substantially horizontal position to a vertical position by means of a lifting element provided on the tube bearing, preferably a hydraulic cylinder or a toothed rack.
