MH E-tally<br />
The electronic tally book system keeps track of all<br />
items passing through the V-door <strong>and</strong> it does not<br />
require any tagging of the pipe. The system uses the<br />
length measuring capabilities of the tubular feeding<br />
machine. The operator must give input regarding the<br />
pipe type. From this information the system calculates<br />
all information needed to replace the conventional tally<br />
book. In addition the E-tally system keeps track of the<br />
pipe’s location inside the fingerboard or its position in<br />
the drill string. The system is also capable of tracing<br />
casing.
