Abstract (en)

[origin: US2019078401A1] Techniques and systems to provide automatic positioning of a tripping apparatus. A system may include a sensor configured to detect an object in proximity of the sensor and generate a signal indicative of detected object. The system may also include a processing device configured to process the signal indicative of the detected object to determine a location of the detected object, retrieve information related to a physical characteristic of a tubular segment, and calculate an indication of the location of a connection point of the tubular segment based upon the location of the detected object and the physical characteristic of the tubular segment.
