Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and methods include a racker device for moving tubular stands on a drilling rig, a fingerboard cooperatively disposed to receive tubular stands from the racker device and to support the tubular stands in a vertical arrangement, and a racking control system in communication with the racker device and configured to control the racker device. The racking control system may include a tubular management system that receives data relating to a well plan and driller settings, assesses the well plan and driller settings, and based on the well plan and driller settings, develops a racking plan setting out proposed racking locations for the tubular stands to be used in a drilling procedure.
