float or buoyancy collar Explanation: I think they mean either a float or a bouyancy collar. See web sites: http://www.nycedo.com/edocorp/page78.htm These strap-on composite assemblies are attached to buoyancy collar elements on drill riser sections to provide improved hydrodynamic flow of currents past the riser, and to help shed unwanted vortex induced vibration, or VIV. Which includes a picture. http://www.energyweb.net/oil/jargon/default.asp?u_letter=f&o... Float collar A special coupling device, inserted one or two joints above the bottom of the casing string, that contains a check valve to permit fluid to pass downward but not upward through the casing. The float collar prevents drilling mud from entering the casing while it is being lowered, allowing the casing to float during its descent, which decreases the load on the derrick. The float collar also prevents a backflow of cement during the cementing operation. |
