contents We consider elliptic curves defined by an equation of the form $y^2=x^3+f(t)$, where $f\in k[t]$ has coefficients in a perfect field $k$ of characteristic not $2$ or $3$. By performing $2$ and $3$-descent, we obtain, under suitable assumptions on the factorization of $f$, bounds for the number of integral points on these curves. These bounds improve on a general result by Hindry and Silverman. When $f$ has degree at most $6$, we give exact expressions for the number of integral points of small height in terms of certain subgroups of Picard groups of the $k$-curves corresponding to the $2$ and $3$-torsion of our curve. This allows us to recover explicit results by Bremner, and gives new insight into Pillai's equation.
