Abstract
Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for the operation of an intelligent powerslip including interfacing with a powerlock system. Measurements from multiple sensors are monitored using an interface between a powerlock and a powerslip of a well. The measurements measure weights, pressures, and temperatures corresponding to use of the powerslip and a grappling device during operation of the well. The measurements from the multiple sensors are compared to pre-determined tolerances to verify that an appropriate engagement exists between the tubular, powerlock and the powerslip. In response to verifying the appropriate engagement and logic, either one of the grappling device or the powerslip can be released depending on the ongoing operation.
