Present Use and Future Potential of Steel in Oil & Petrochemical Industries
Oil and natural gas are national strategic reserves. As oil and gas field exploration and production gradually shift to deepwater offshore, deep terrestrial formations, and unconventional replacement resource development, the demand for high-end special steels for
Material selection for corrosion types in different environments in the petrochemical industry
Corrosion has long been a hazard in the petrochemical industry. A slight negligence can damage equipment at best, or even cause accidents or disasters at worst. According to statistics, approximately 60% of damage to petrochemical equipment
Advantages of Cryogenic Treatment in Marine and Oil & Gas Applications
Cryogenic treatment of metals significantly reduces wear and corrosion in marine components, resulting in reduced maintenance, reduced replacement costs, and extended service life. However, this technology has been slow to develop since World War II and
How Quenching Temperature Affects Cr-Mo Steel Properties
The pipe body material of oil drill pipe is generally low-carbon chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. During drilling operations, the drill pipe is often subjected to complex loads such as tension, bending, torsion, impact, and collision. The service
How to use a double centralizer
The primary benefit of a double centralizer is stabilizing the azimuth. In practice, we've found that in most cases, dual centralizers stabilize and slightly increase azimuth. Some drill string configurations often exhibit a strong azimuth increase,
Study on Heat Treatment Technology of X80 Seamless Steel Pipe
Pipelines are essential for transporting oil, natural gas, and even solid materials like coal over long distances. As global energy demands grow, high-pressure, long-distance transmission pipelines have become vital for large-scale natural gas delivery. This
