摘要:
A female component for a tubular hydrocarbon working string subjected to dynamic bending strength includes a tapered female threading cooperating with a male threading to form a rigid mutual connection of tubular elements, a free end and female sealing surface disposed between the free end and the female threading, the female sealing surface to contact in a made up condition with a male sealing surface to form a metal-metal seal, and an annular groove provided between the free end and the female sealing surface, leaving an axial distance greater than zero between the free end and a transition region outwardly of the female sealing surface, and a radial distance greater than zero between the female sealing surface and a chamfer at the free end, the groove including borders formed by the chamfer and a portion of the transition region protecting the female sealing surface prior to makeup.

The coating of the invention includes a solid matrix adhering to the substrate and in which are dispersed particles (11) of at least one solid lubricant that belongs to the same one class. The solid matrix is lubricating and has a rheologic behaviour of the plastic or viscoplastic type. The invention can be used for protecting the threads of threaded members used in hydrocarbon wells against corrosion and seizure.

A tubular threaded joint for connecting tubing or casing used to excavate oil wells have a lubricating coating formed from a lubricating coating composition comprising one or more basic lubricants selected from a basic sulfonate salt, a basic salicylate salt, a basic phenate salt, and a basic carboxylate salt and having biodegradability value (BOD) of at least 20% when measured after 28 days in seawater. The joint can be used without application of a compound grease containing heavy metals even in a country or region having severe environmental regulations.

There is provided a method for detecting an abnormal portion (defect, non-adhering portion, and seized portion) lying at a contact region between each part of a pin and each part of a box forming a threaded joint to be used as a joint of pipe or tubes such as OCTG. This invention provides an ultrasonic testing method of a threaded joint of pipes or tubes including a pin having an external thread part, a metal seal part, and a shoulder part on an outer peripheral surface, and a box having an internal thread part, a metal seal part, and a shoulder part corresponding to each part of the pin on an inner peripheral surface and being fastened with the pin by way of a lubricant. The method according to the present invention comprising the steps of: transmitting and receiving ultrasonic waves to and from a plurality of locations along an axial direction of the threaded joint in at least one of the internal thread part, the metal seal part, and the shoulder part of the box; detecting echo intensities and reception times of echoes for the plurality of locations; and detecting an abnormal portion in the threaded joint based on axial directional distribution of the echo intensities and axial directional distribution of reception times of the echoes.

There is provided a method capable of evaluating a fastening state of a threaded joint that is used as a joint of pipes or tubes such as OCTG with a high degree of accuracy even after being fastened and a method for fastening a threaded joint of pipes or tubes using the evaluating method. The present invention provides a method for evaluating a fastening state of a threaded joint of pipes or tubes including a pin having an external thread part, a metal seal part, and a shoulder part on an outer peripheral surface, and a box having an internal thread part, a metal seal part, and a shoulder part corresponding to each part of the pin on an inner peripheral surface and being fastened with the pin. The evaluating method according to the present invention is characterized by transmitting and receiving an ultrasonic wave to and from a plurality of locations along an axial direction of the threaded joint in at least one of the internal thread part, the metal seal part, and the shoulder part of the box; detecting echo intensities for the plurality of locations; and comparing the echo intensities detected for the plurality of locations to determine whether the fastening state of the threaded joint is good or bad.
摘要:
A threaded joint for steel pipes having excellent galling resistance, rust preventing properties, and airtightness without using a compound grease comprises a pin and a box each having a threaded portion and an unthreaded metal-to-metal contact portion serving as contact surfaces. The contact surfaces of at least one of the pin and the box are coated with a multi-layered structure comprising, from the bottom, a first layer formed from a first metal or alloy, a second layer formed from a second metal or alloy which is softer than the first metal or alloy, and an uppermost layer of a solid lubricating coating comprising a lubricating powder in an organic or inorganic binder.
