摘要： An expandable tubular joint including a male element with a male thread, a first annular lip having a first axially abutting surface, a first inner surface and a first outer surface, and a second abutting surface; and a female element with a female thread, a second annular lip having a third abutting surface, a second outer surface and a second inner surface, and a third inner surface and a fourth axially abutting surface which, together with the second outer surface, defines a first annular housing. The male tubular element includes a local added thickness at a fourth inner surface projecting out from the second abutting surface. After screwing, the first lip is housed in the annular housing and the abutting surfaces rest against one another, in order to enable the formation of an annular shoulder at the first outer surface during diametral expansion.

摘要： The invention relates to an expandable tubular joint comprising: (i) a male tubular element (EM) which is equipped with a male thread (FM), a first annular lip (L1) having a first axially abutting surface (SB1), a first inner surface (SI1) and a first outer surface (SE1), and a second abutting surface (SB2); and (ii) a female tubular element (EF) which is equipped with a female thread (FF), a second annular lip (L2) having a third abutting surface (SB3), a second outer surface (SE2) and a second inner surface (SI2), and a third inner surface (SI3) and a fourth axially abutting surface (SB4) which, together with the second outer surface (SE2), defines a first annular housing (LO) homologous to the first lip (L1). According to the invention, the male tubular element (EM) initially comprises a local annular added thickness (SA1) at a fourth inner surface (SI4) which projects out from the second abutting surface (SB2). The third inner surface (SI3) of the female tubular element (EF) comprises an annular groove (G1) which, after screwing, is placed at the first outer surface (SE1) and the annular added thickness (SA1). The male and female elements are shaped such that, after screwing, the first lip (L1) is housed in the annular housing (LO) and the second and third abutting surfaces rest against one another, in order to enable the formation of an annular shoulder (EP) at the first outer surface (SE1) during diametral expansion in the plastic deformation region, said shoulder having the shape of part of the groove (G1) and being in hermetic clamping contact therewith.

摘要： To produce a sealing contact between male and female threaded elements, a contact zone is provided, located between male and female threading portions separated from each other in an axial direction. The male and female elements have respective cylindrical portions that extend over the entire length of the contact zone. After expansion, a sealing contact is established between surfaces in two annular areas by a radial interference fit.

摘要： A component used for drilling and operating hydrocarbon wells which is substantially tubular in form, and including a first end configured to be connected to a second end of another component also used for drilling and operating hydrocarbon wells. The first end includes a terminal portion including a first abutment surface configured to cooperate by interference with a corresponding abutment surface on the second end, and including a sealing surface configured to cooperate by interference with a corresponding sealing surface on the second end, the terminal portion being preceded by a threaded zone configured to be made up into a corresponding threaded zone of the second end. A compressible volume is provided in the thickness of the first terminal portion and partially beneath the sealing surface, to reduce radial stiffness of the terminal portion by at least 20%, while conserving at least 60% of axial stiffness.

摘要： A tubular joint in which radial expansion caused by the passage of an expander, inclined shoulder fittings formed respectively on a peripheral surface of the female element facing radially inwards and on a peripheral surface of the male element facing radially outwards, are subjected to a relative axial displacement towards each other to be urged into sealed mutual contact with radial interference. The tubular joint is, for example, useful in hydrocarbon wells.
