A mobile land rig is adapted to perform drilling and/or wellbore related activities. The mobile land rig includes a drilling tower, a loader and a top drive system including a pivotal top drive unit. The top drive system is provided with an actuator assembly adapted to cause the pivot motion of the top drive unit.

In combination a drilling mast and a top drive system for a drilling rig having a drill floor with a well center. The drilling mast has a U-shaped horizontal cross section with a left-hand mast wall, a rear mast wall, and a right-hand mast wall, and with an open front side. Each of the mast walls is provided with one or more vertical rails that are, in use of the drilling rig, parallel to a vertical firing line that extends through the well center. The top drive system comprises a traveling carriage and a top drive unit supported by said carriage. A left-hand fingerboard device is mounted to the left-hand mast wall and a right-hand side fingerboard device is mounted to the right-hand mast wall.

A drilling rig is adapted to perform drilling and/or other wellbore related activities. The drilling rig includes a drilling tower, a drill floor with a well center, a slip device arranged at the well center, a tubulars connection makeup and breaking device near the well center, and a top drive system. The top drive system includes a traveling carriage that is vertically mobile along one or more vertical rails of the drilling tower by a vertical motion drive. The system also includes a top drive unit supported by said carriage and including a top drive motor and a rotary torque output member. The system further includes a tripping operation elevator that is adapted to be engageable with a drilling tubulars string or drilling tubulars stand, e.g. with the top end thereof, in order to perform tripping operations. The top drive unit and the tripping operation elevator are each mobile relative to the traveling carriage, and wherein the top drive system is provided with one or more actuators adapted to cause said relative motion of the top drive unit and of the tripping operation elevator so as to provide a drilling mode and a tripping mode.

A well drilling tubulars bin system comprises a well drilling tubulars bin and control device. The bin comprises a frame structure, and an elevator mechanism, for holding multiple layers of a plurality of well drilling tubulars. The elevator mechanism comprises a liftable support structure, and a left and right hydraulic cylinder. The support structure is liftable from a lower position to an upper position. The support structure is raised and lowered in a level manner, or with a tilt angle. The elevator mechanism comprises a first left lift arm and a first right lift arm. The first left and right lift arms are at a first end rotatably connected to the support structure, and at a second end opposite from the first end rotatably connected to the frame structure. The left and right hydraulic cylinders are connected to the respective lift arms for rotating the respective lift arm.
