Tech/Engineering - Petroleum Eng/Sci / offshore drilling
Norwegian (Bokmal) term or phrase: rapo
Have come up against the following in a text regarding core drilling.

Bruk 2 styretau (en på rapo utenfor drillerbu og en på nivå 1 i boretårn.) Kjør krybbe inn med vinsj og hold igjen med trolley, ta på rulle (tail in arm) og støtt krybbe inn til denne.

Presumably 'rapo' is an acronym for something, but have not been able to find anything by Googling the term. Would be grateful for some assistance with this.

Regards,

Horizontal Pipe Handling
Catwalk Machines
The Catwalk Machine (CWM) is a pipe and/or riser handling system which safely transports 30-foot to over 90-foot tubulars and other heavy equipment in and out of the drill floor.
On the pipe and/or riser deck, the operation is co-ordinated with the pipe and/or riser handling crane. On the drill-floor, the operation is co-ordinated with the rig's horizontal to vertical pipe/riser handling system. The CWM can be equipped with Pipe Tail-in Arm or Riser Tail-in Arm for accurate stabbing in well center or mouse-hole. The CWM is remotely controlled from a local operator station and/or from the driller's cabin.
