1. A pipe mat for use with a tubing tray for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails spaced so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the tubing tray defines a respective drain channel;b) a plurality of nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings min communication with the drain channels, in which the openings have a substantially circular configuration or shape; andc) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of the plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs. 2. A pipe mat for use with a tubing tray for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails spaced so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the tubing tray defines a respective drain channel;b) a plurality of nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings in communication with the drain channels; andc) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of the plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs; andd) a corner bumper disposed on at least one corner of the pipe mat. 3. A pipe mat for use with a tubing tray for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails spaced so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the tubing tray defines a respective drain channel;b) a plurality of nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings in communication with the drain channels; andc) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of the plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs,wherein at least one of the support rails is configured as an end support rail and the openings disposed between at least one of the end support rails and its adjacent support rail have an elongated or oval configuration or shape. 4. A pipe for use with a tubing tray for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails spaced so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the tubing tray defines a respective drain channel;b) a plurality of nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings in communication with the drain channels; andc) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of the plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs,wherein at least one of the support rails is configured as an end support rail and at least one of the end support rails has a plurality of cutaways disposed along an outer edge thereof. 5. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 4, wherein the cutaways comprise a semi-circular configuration or shape. 6. A pipe mat for use with a tubing tray for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails spaced so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the tubing tray defines a respective drain channel;b) a plurality of a nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings in communication with the drain channels; andc) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs,in which at least one pipe nub is positioned so that fluid flow on all sides of the at least one pipe nub will flow into the openings. 7. A pipe mat for receiving drill pipe tripped out of a drill string on a drilling rig, the pipe mat comprising: a) a plurality of support rails configured to be spaced on a fluid collecting surface so that each adjacent pair of support rails in combination with the fluid collecting surface defines a respective drain channel; b) a plurality of nub rails disposed or supported on the plurality of support rails, the plurality of nub rails forming a lattice or matrix-type structure in combination with the support rails defining openings in communication with the drain channels; and c) a plurality of spaced-apart pipe nubs extending upwardly from at least one of the plurality of nub rails, the pipe nubs configured to hold a drill pipe in place when an end of the drill pipe is placed onto one of the pipe nubs. 8. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 7, wherein each of the pipe nubs comprise a triangular profile or cross-sectional shape. 9. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 7, wherein the openings comprise a substantially circular configuration or shape. 10. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 7, further comprising a corner bumper disposed on at least one corner of the pipe mat. 11. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 7, wherein at least one of the support rails is configured as an end support rail. 12. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 11, wherein the openings disposed between at least one of the end support rails and its adjacent support rail comprise an elongated or oval configuration or shape. 13. The pipe mat as set forth in claim 11, wherein at least one of the end support rails comprises a plurality of cutaways disposed along an outer edge thereof. 14.
