The utility model relates to a pipe shoe for an offshore drilling riser. The pipe shoe is characterized by comprising a main pipe and a transitional pipe; the main pipe and the transitional pipe are integrated; the main pipe is a barrel, and a square corrugated plate is rolled to form the barrel; the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the transitional pipe are respectively identical to the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the riser; the outer diameter of the main pipe is consistent with that of the transitional pipe, one end of the main pipe is a stratum penetrating end, and the other end of the main pipe is an end connected with the transitional pipe; and the wall thickness of the main pipe is gradually reduced from the end connected with the transitional pipe to the stratum penetrating end, and space with an inclination angle is formed inside the main pipe. The pipe shoe has the advantages the stratum penetrating end of the main pipe is thin, and the end connected with the transitional pipe is thick, so that the main pipe is high in stratum penetrating ability; the space with the inclination angle is formed inside the main pipe, so that a pile group effect can be deteriorated, and the riser can be tripped into a dense area; and the pipe shoe can be widely applied to various petroleum exploration and development fields.
