Abstract: Drill pipe damage primarily manifests as grooves and scratches on the joint shoulder, as well as corrosion and erosion of the pipe body. This article analyzes the causes of drill pipe damage and maintenance methods during drilling operations, aiming to provide guidance for drilling operations, extend the service life of drill pipe, and prevent
Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) of pipelines usually refers to heat treatment below the metal's phase transition point, which is also commonly referred to as stress relief. The main functions of post-weld heat treatment are to release residual stress, reduce diffusible hydrogen, and improve microstructure and properties. In addition, post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) has other functions
Currently, commonly used methods for cleaning oil pipes can be divided into two main categories: physical cleaning and chemical cleaning. These primarily include hot boiling cleaning, heating cleaning, laser cleaning, biological cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, dry ice cleaning, and water jet cleaning. Below are several cleaning methods: Heating Cleaning The substances adhering to the surface
Large free forging equipment is a hallmark of a country's industrial development level, and the large forgings produced play a vital role in national economic construction, defense equipment, and central installations in modern cutting-edge science. As various industries gradually shift towards larger and higher-standard equipment manufacturing, the internal quality requirements for large forgings are also
Stabilizers are standard downhole tools in drilling assemblies. Complex downhole situations and accidents related to them often occur during drilling. Despite extensive analysis and improvements by researchers and manufacturers, the problems have not been completely resolved. The Graf project is located in southern Iraq, where multiple wells have experienced downhole stabilizer breakage during operations.
The commonly used automated coating processes for seamless steel pipes, such as oil casing pipes, include the following four methods: Process One Utilizes a spray coating method with linear conveyor systems, applying the coating before, after, and between the rollers to form a coating film. The pipes are then transferred using forklifts and conveyed by
In the petrochemical industry, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) corrosion is a widespread and highly hazardous phenomenon. By analyzing the corrosion mechanism of H2S, this blog introduces various forms of corrosion caused by wet H2S, including hydrogen embrittlement, hydrogen-induced cracking, sulfide stress corrosion cracking, and stress-induced hydrogen cracking. These types of corrosion are closely related to
A forged shaft produced by the company, made of 42CrMo steel with a net weight of 15 tons and using a 24-ton steel ingot, underwent the following production process: Vacuum smelting → casting → forging → post-forging heat treatment → rough machining → ultrasonic testing → quenching and tempering → semi-finish machining → ultrasonic
42CrMo is a commonly used alloy structural steel recognized for its excellent mechanical properties and adaptability to heat treatment. It is widely used in the manufacturing of mechanical components and engineering machinery. Heat treatment is a key process for enhancing the performance of 42CrMo. This article will introduce the characteristics and applications of 42CrMo
