Efficient and Safe Tubular Handling with Hydraulic and Casing Power Tongs 
Hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs are tools used in the oil and gas industry to handle 
and manipulate tubulars, such as casing and drill pipe, during drilling, completion, and workover 
operations. Both types of tongs are powered by hydraulic systems, which provide high torque and 
precise control. Hydraulic power tongs are designed to handle drill pipe and other tubulars during 
drilling operations. They consist of a set of jaws that grip the pipe and a hydraulic system that 
provides the force to turn the pipe.  
The hydraulic system is controlled by an operator who uses a remote control to adjust the torque 
and speed of the tongs. Hydraulic power tongs are typically mounted on a drilling rig or on a 
separate power unit. 
 
Casing power tongs, on the other hand, are designed to handle larger and heavier tubulars, such as 
casing and tubing, during completion and workover operations. They are similar in design to 
hydraulic power tongs but are larger and more powerful. Casing power tongs are also typically 
mounted on a rig or power unit and are operated using a remote control. 
Here are some benefits of using hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs in the oil and gas 
industry: 
 
Increased Efficiency: Hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs provide high torque and 
precise control, allowing workers to handle tubulars quickly and efficiently. This leads to 
faster drilling and completion times, which can save time and money. 
 
 
Increased Safety: Using hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs can reduce the risk of 
injuries caused by manual handling of heavy tubulars. These tools are designed to safely grip 
and manipulate tubulars, reducing the risk of accidents. 
 
 Versatility: Hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs are versatile tools that can handle 
a wide range of tubular sizes and types. This flexibility allows workers to use the same tools 
for different operations, reducing the need for specialized equipment. 
 
 Remote Operation: Hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs can be operated 
remotely, which reduces the risk of injury and allows workers to operate the tools from a 
safe distance. This is particularly important in hazardous environments. 
 
 Durability: Hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs are designed to withstand harsh 
environments and heavy use. They are subject to strict safety regulations and regular 
maintenance to ensure their reliability and performance. 
 
 
Both hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs are essential tools in the oil and gas industry, as 
they allow workers to safely and efficiently handle and manipulate tubulars. They are designed to 
withstand harsh environments and heavy use, and they are subject to strict safety regulations and 
regular maintenance to ensure their reliability and performance. 
In summary, hydraulic power tongs and casing power tongs are both types of hydraulic tools used in 
the oil and gas industry to handle and manipulate tubulars. Hydraulic power tongs are designed for 
drill pipe, while casing power tongs are designed for larger and heavier tubulars like casing and 
tubing. Both types of tongs are critical for safe and efficient drilling, completion, and workover 
operations.
