DRILL PIPE

Drill Pipe is one of the core tubular components in oil and gas drilling operations, working alongside tubing and casing to support extraction activities. Its primary function is to connect the drill bit to the drilling rig, bearing pressure, transmitting torque, and conveying drilling fluid within the tubular system. Composed of a pipe body and drill pipe couplings, it is engineered to withstand demanding operational environments.

Drill Pipe Grade Charts

The steel grade of drill pipe directly determines its application scenarios and service life. Different grades exhibit varying load-bearing capacities and yield strengths, making them suitable for distinct environments. Below are several commonly used steel grades, all compliant with API 5DP standards.

Grade Minimum Yield Strength Tensile Strength Range Strength Level Typical Applications
E75 ≥ 75,000 psi (≥ 517 MPa) 100,000 – 140,000 psi Medium Shallow wells, conventional vertical wells, low-load drilling
X95 ≥ 95,000 psi (≥ 655 MPa) 110,000 – 140,000 psi Medium-High Medium-depth wells, directional drilling, horizontal wells
G105 ≥ 105,000 psi (≥ 724 MPa) 125,000 – 150,000 psi High Deep wells, high-torque and high-load drilling
S135 ≥ 135,000 psi (≥ 931 MPa) 145,000 – 165,000 psi Ultra-High Ultra-deep wells, HPHT wells, extreme drilling conditions

Drill Pipe Manufacturing Process

Seamless Process
The absence of welds significantly enhances pipe body strength and fatigue resistance, forming the fundamental guarantee for drill pipe performance.
End Thickening
Internal or external thickening of pipe ends prevents threads from becoming stress concentration points, reducing the risk of fracture and failure.
Tool Joint Friction Welding
This process yields weld strength exceeding the base material, enabling long-term stable operation under high loads.
CNC Thread Machining
Ultra-precise threading technology facilitates rapid field installation and enhances efficiency.

FAQ

What are the common grades of drill pipe steel?

Common drill pipe steel grades include E75, X95, G105, and S135. The selection of steel grade depends on the operating environment, the grade’s yield strength, well depth, and torque requirements.

A tool joint is a connection welded to both ends of the drill pipe, enabling pipe connection and torque transmission. Manufactured from high-strength alloys, it serves as a core component of the drill pipe.

China is a major producer of drill pipes. Reliable Chinese manufacturers include ALLLAND Steel Pipe Factory from Hebei Province. With a complete industrial chain encompassing production, forging, welding, and heat treatment, they supply high-quality drill pipes worldwide.
