Abstract:
A casing joint includes a tubular including a particular length, a particular diameter, and a first wall thickness; a male connection formed on a first end of the tubular, the male connection including an axial length and a plurality of threads formed on a portion of an external surface of the male connection less than the axial length of the male connection; and a female connection formed on a second end of the tubular opposite the first end, the female connection including an axial length and a plurality of threads formed on a portion of an internal surface of the female connection less than the axial length of the female connection.
Abstract:
A connection between a first tubular member and a second tubular member includes a first tubular end, a second tubular end, a load shoulder member threadable onto the first tubular end, and a nut receivable around the first tubular end and the load shoulder member and threadable onto the second tubular end. The connection also includes a keyway through the load shoulder member and into the first tubular end to receive a key member.
Abstract:
A method for determining an integrity of a connection includes applying a high-contrast material to a connection between a first tubular and a second tubular. A torque is applied to the first tubular. Applying the torque to the first tubular includes rotating the first tubular relative to the second tubular to establish the connection. A change in pattern of the high-contrast material in analyzed, while the torque is applied to the first tubular, using a strain detection tool that does not contact the connection. A strain at the connection is determined, based at least partially upon analyzing the change in pattern of the high-contrast material. An integrity of the connection is determined, based at least partially upon the strain.

Abstract:
A connector for connecting a first gas preparation device in a gas preparation system to a second gas preparation device in a gas preparation system is disclosed. The connector includes a body having an aperture extending therethrough and having first and second externally threaded portions. The connector also includes a ring member slidable relative to said threaded portions and a pair of O-ring seals are located on either side of the ring member.
Abstract:
A tubular member connection system (11) includes a pin (15), external pin threads (17), and an annular pin lip (21) at a shoulder surface (20) of the pin. A box (27) has internal box threads (29) and an annular box lip (31) at an end surface of the box. The box threads are shaped to mate with the pin threads to releasably secure the pin to the box. A pin recess (22) is formed in an outer diameter surface of the pin, the pin recess extending in an axial direction from the pin lip. A pin key (59) is selectively fastenable within the pin recess, the pin key having pin teeth (69) on an outer edge of the pin key. The box teeth (33) are located in the box. The box teeth (33) selectively mate with the pin teeth (69) and resist rotation of the pin relative to the box.
Abstract:
A pipe and coupler system (1), described herein, includes a fixed pipe (10), a removable pipe (1), and a coupler (12) having a fixed pipe end (14) and a removable pipe end (15). The fixed pipe end (14) is joined to the fixed coupler end (17) and the removable pipe end (1) is joined to the removable coupler end (16) by means of threads. The system (1) further includes a locking system that includes a Cir-clip (8) provided on a groove (11) of fixed pipe end (14) & a pressure flange (9) provided on a groove (13) of fixed coupler end (16). The system also includes a number of sealing means Leak proof ring (6) and Profile ring (2) to prevent leakage.
Abstract:
This invention builds up on technical features and on the industry experience with the use of Merlin® family connectors. In addition to friction, structural means utilized in order to transfer high torsional loads include: dog-clutch like teeth, fitted pins, keys, splines and interlocked thread systems, all used in isolation or in arbitrary combinations. Static and fatigue bending load capacities of the connectors remain high, while the axial load capacities may or may not be high, depending on the design requirements. Connectors according to this invention can be built as new, carefully optimized designs. In some cases upgrading existing Merlin® family connector designs to increase they torque transfer capacities may be also feasible.
Abstract:
A broach-style anti-rotation device for connected tubular members (106; 108) is described. In embodiments, the broach tool (144) is inserted into a slot (118) in an outer diameter surface of the pin (102), and teeth (146) of the broach, which have successively greater height when moving from the front to the tail of the broach, cut a slot (160) in a surface of the box (104). Sidewalls of the broach and its teeth engage shoulders of each slot to prevent the rotation of the tubular members relative to each other.
