1.6 Significant Changes from DS-1 Third Edition: To
assist the user in identifying changes between Standard
DS-1 Third Edition and Fourth Edition, Tables A.1 and A.2
are provided (located in the Appendix). Table A.1 outlines a
list of some of the new inspection procedures and methods
added to Fourth Edition. Table A.2 outlines a list of some
of the key changes made to the inspection procedures
and methods previously covered in Third Edition and now
continued in Fourth Edition. The goal is to familiarize DS-1
users with these changes. However, it is not meant to be
an exhaustive list that requires no further investigation.
Tables A.1 and A.2 serve as a reference to be reviewed
prior to examining the contents of Standard DS-1 Fourth
Edition, Volume 3.

Section Method Comments

3.7 Electromagnetic This is formerly EMI 1 and EMI 2. They have been combined into a single
Inspection (EMI) method with the option for tube wall thickness monitoring by gamma ray radia-
tion, magnetic wall or ultrasonic wall monitoring equipment.
Key Items:
• The EMI drilled-hole standard shall be recertified annually.
• The Wall Thickness Reference Standard thicknesses shall be verified with
an ultrasonic thickness gage or micrometer traceable to NIST or equivalent.
• In lieu of turning around the inspection head it may be backed onto the
upset if it can be demonstrated during standardization that the system is of
equal sensitivity while scanning in the forward and reverse direction and if
the detectors are centrally located within the inspection head.
3.8 Heat Checking This method covers the examination of heat checking (longitudinal surface
Inspection imperfections) on box tool joints from the shoulder to the intersection of tool
joint OD and the 18 degree taper using wet fluorescent or dry magnetic particle
technique.
3.19 Wet Visible This method covers the inspection of slip and upset external surfaces of used
Contrast steel drill pipe for transverse and three-dimensional flaws, using wet visible
Inspection contrast technique with an active AC field or with an active DC field.
Key Items:
• The white paint contrast applied thickness must be no more than 0.002
inches thick as measured by a dry film thickness gage.
• For Wet Visible Contrast Inspection Method only magnetic particle concen-
tration shall range from 1.2 to 2.4 ml/100 ml using an ASTM 100 ml centrifuge
tube. This does not apply to pre-mixed bath available in aerosol containers.
• Per Note 3 of table 2.2 and table 2.3, “For ferromagnetic components, Wet
Visible Contrast Inspection may be substituted for MPI Slip/Upset Area
Inspection.”

Table A.1 New Methods Added to DS-1 Fourth Edition (continued)

3.21 Connection This procedure covers the process control requirements for phosphating newly-
Phosphating machined or recut rotary-shouldered connections using zinc phosphate or
manganese phosphate methods. This procedure is not required for connections
that have only been refaced.
Key Items:
• A detailed, written procedure for treating the connections, using the specific
phosphating product and equipment in place, must be available at the job
site.
• At a minimum the written procedure must address the key variables con-
tained in paragraph 3.21.2.1.a through 3.21.2.1.e.
• Also included in this new procedure are the requirements for Post-Treatment
Inspection (paragraph 3.21.5).
3.22 Hardbanding This procedure covers the inspection of used components to be hardbanded
Reapplication and the procedures required to ensure quality hardbanding reapplication.
Key Items:
• Contains multiple photos of both acceptable and rejectable examples of
hardbanding.
• One big difference between this inspection and the hardbanding attribute
checked during a Visual Connection Inspection (3.11) is hardbanding height.
Section 3.11 allows up to 3/16 inch proud hardbanding while section 3.22
limits the height to the customer’s specification acceptance criteria which is
typically 3/32 ±1/32 inch. This is due to hardbanding inspected per section
3.11 may not have been applied in accordance with section 3.22 so the
acceptance criteria for section 3.11 is relaxed.
• Included in paragraph 3.22.2.1 are key procedural requirements that must
be followed.
3.23 Tool Joint This procedure covers the inspection of used tool joints to be rebuilt (by weld-
Rebuilding ing on the outside surfaces in order to increase the OD measurement) and the
procedures required to ensure quality weld application.
Key Item:
• This is not a mandatory procedure called out by table 2.2 or table 2.3 but
instead provides proper application quality control in the event the customer
or tool owner opts to use it.
3.26 Pup Joint This procedure covers Visual Tube Inspection, Visual Connection Inspection
Inspection 1 and Dimensional 1 Inspection of integral and welded pup joints.
Key Item:
• Required when qualifying pup joints under a Service Category 2 inspection.

Page 328
Add new table at end of Appendix (continued)
Table A.1 New Methods Added to DS-1 Fourth Edition (continued)

3.27 Pup Joint This procedure covers the inspection requirements and acceptance criteria for
Inspection 2 integral and welded pup joints. The requirements listed in this procedure are
more comprehensive than the requirements in Pup Joint Inspection 1.
Key Item:
• Required when qualifying pup joints under a Service Category 3-5 inspection.
3.36 Demagnetization This procedure covers the equipment and methods used for the measurement
and reduction of residual magnetic fields in the longitudinal direction after a
component is inspected using wet fluorescent magnetic particle technique or
the dry magnetic particle technique.
Key Items:
• This is not a mandatory procedure or method but may be used to demag-
netize components after inspection using wet fluorescent magnetic particle
technique or the dry magnetic particle technique.
• Demagnetization may be performed using an AC Yoke, AC Coil or DC Coil.
• Following demagnetization residual fields should not exceed 3 gauss with
residual fields up to 10 gauss acceptable after an agreement between
vendor and customer.
3.37 Post-Inspection This procedure covers the post-inspection marking requirements of used drill
Marking of stem components. This procedure does not address marking of newly manu-
Drill Stem factured drill stem components.
Components Key Items:
• Marking is divided into two marking “schemes”, Scheme-A and Scheme-B.
• Scheme-A is used when the inspection of a particular component is to stop
as soon as that component is rejected and is only applied to fully acceptable
components and signifies that all parts of the component are acceptable to
the applicable requirements.
• Scheme-B is used when the inspection is to continue until all specified
inspections are completed. This scheme denotes the condition of each
part individually.
• The location, number and color of paint bands shall be in accordance with
table 3.11.1.
• Included in this procedure is guidance for marking Premium Class Reduced
TSR Normal Weight Drill Pipe (NWDP).

Table A.2 Changes from DS-1 Third Edition to Existing Inspection Methods or Procedures

Various Table 3.8 (Used BHA Connection Dimensional Criteria) has been replaced with
the values that were provided in the Revised Table 3.8 enclosure from the T H
Hill letter dated December 2010.
Table 3.9.1 (Used Heavy Weight Drill Pipe Dimensional Data) has been modified
adding third edition and fourth edition acceptance criteria for OD, ID, BD, and
Seal Width. Per note 4, both third and fourth edition values will be accepted until
30 April 2014. Effective 01 May 2014, only fourth edition values will be accepted.
To be consistent with BHA methodology of controlling seal stresses, NWDP and
TWDP tool joint acceptance criteria now measure minimum bevel diameters
instead of minimum seal width.
Chapter 4, Registration of Inspection and Threading Vendors has been removed
from fourth edition.
Various Inspections The minimum illumination level at the inspection surface shall be 50 foot-candles.
Requiring Ambient Light Light intensity level at the inspection surface must be verified:
• At the start of each inspection job
• When light fixtures change positions or intensity
• When requested by the customer or its designated representative
• Upon completion of the job
The requirements do not apply to direct sunlight conditions.
If adjustments are required to the light intensity level at the inspection surface,
all components inspected since the last light intensity level verification shall be
re-inspected.
3.4 Visual Tube Acceptance Criteria has been added for crooked tube conditions. The tube shall
Inspection not be visibly crooked over the entire length of the tube or 0.5 inches in the first
5 feet from either end. In addition to all applicable inspection, all straightened
pipe shall be inspected in the straightened tube section and 2 feet on either side
of the straightened section in accordance with procedure 3.9, MPI Slip/Upset.
3.6 UT Wall Thick- UT Field Reference Standard thicknesses have been added to table 3.6.1 for drill
ness Inspection pipe tubes. The thick and thin section criteria are still in paragraph 3.6.2.e but
paragraph 3.6.2.f directs the inspector to table 3.6.1 and table 3.6.2 to simplify
the selection process.

Page 328 - Add new table at end of Appendix following new Table A.1 (continued)
(continued)
3.9 MPI Slip/Upset Coverage area changes:
• Tube close to pin tool joint: 36 inches on the tube side starting from the
intersection of the 35 degree or 18 degree tool joint taper (as applicable)
and the outside surface of the tube.
• Tube close to box tool joint: 48 inches on the tube side starting from the
intersection of the 18 degree tool joint taper and the outside surface of the
tube. If there are slip cuts beyond the 48 inches, then the area where the
additional slip cuts are located, including 6 inches on either side of this
location, shall also be inspected.
• HWDP Center Pad: If applied to HWDP the area also includes the first 12
inches of tube either side of the transition radius.
Other changes:
• When using an AC Yoke the maximum pole spacing shall not exceed the
distance between the poles when all segments of the yoke are perpendicular
to the grip and the minimum pole spacing shall be 2 inches.
• If a ten pound test block is used to test the capacity of the yoke then it shall
show evidence of certification in the past three years.
• A visible light meter has been added to the Inspection Apparatus list.
• For wet fluorescent inspection there is now a maximum visible light intensity
to conduct the inspection of 2 foot-candles.
• The 100 watt power requirement for blacklight sources has been removed.
3.11 Visual Connection Hardened and ground profile gages and angle gages must now show evidence
Inspection of calibration in the last three years.
Connections added for coverage: uXT™, uDS™, VAM Drilling VAM Express™,
VAM EIS®, VAM CDS™, VAM TorqMaster 2™, NK DSTJ, Hilong Interchange-
able Double Shoulder (HLIDS™), Hilong Super High Torque (HLST™).
Removed coverage for OMSCO TuffTorq™.
The check for shoulder flatness has been moved from Dimensional 2 and
Dimensional 3 Inspection and added as a requirement to Visual Connection
Inspection (3.11).
3.13/ Dimensional 2/ Hardened and ground profile gages must now show evidence of calibration in
3.14 Dimensional 3 the last three years.
Connections added for coverage: uXT™, uDS™, VAM Drilling VAM Express™,
VAM EIS®, VAM CDS™, VAM TorqMaster 2™, NK DSTJ, Hilong Interchange-
able Double Shoulder (HLIDS™), Hilong Super High Torque (HLST™).
Removed coverage for OMSCO TuffTorq™.
The check for shoulder flatness has been moved from Dimensional 2 and
Dimensional 3 Inspection and added as a requirement to Visual Connection
Inspection (3.11).
To be consistent with BHA methodology of controlling seal stresses, the NWDP
and TWDP tool joint acceptance criteria now measures minimum bevel diameters
instead of minimum seal width.
HWDP bevel diameter requirements have been updated to ensure that DS-1 is
not in conflict with API dimensions. Both third and fourth edition values will be
accepted until 30 April 2014. Effective 01 May 2014, only the updated HWDP
ranges will be accepted.
(continued)
3.15 Blacklight The scope of the inspection has changed to remove the examination of heat
Connection checking on box tool joints using the blacklight technique or the dry magnetic
Inspection particle technique. The outside diameter of the box tool joint, which was previ-
ously covered in third edition, paragraph 3.15.4.f is now covered in the new
procedure 3.8 (Heat Checking Inspection).
Additionally, pin ID has been added as an inspection area.
There is now a maximum visible light intensity to conduct the inspection of 2
foot-candles.
A visible light meter has been added to the Inspection Apparatus.
3.16 UT Connection Paragraph 3.16.4.a now requires the reference standard to be made from a
material of similar acoustic properties as the part being tested.
Two sensitivity reference standards shall be used for standardization. One
standard shall be all or part of a pin connection of the same connection type as
the pin connection being tested. The other standard shall be all or part of a box
connection of the same connection type as the box being tested.
The sensitivity reference standard shall be placed in the standard in the last full
thread groove closest to the shoulder on the pin and farthest from the shoulder
on the box.
3.24 Stabilizer There have been significant changes to neck length acceptance criteria in para-
Inspection graph 3.24.6.c. The minimum tong space on the lower connection (typically
pin) shall be 7 inches or the tool shall be rejected.
OD ≤ 3-1/2" 12"
3-1/2" < OD ≤ 8" 15"
OD >8" 18"
Ring Gage Blade Inspection: There are major changes to ring gage dimensions
and gauging tolerances.
• Gage thickness shall be 1/2 inch minimum and gage width shall be 3/4
inch minimum.
• The gage inside diameter shall be the desired nominal blade diameter
+0.005, -0 inch.
• The inside diameter of the ring gage shall be verified using an internal
micrometer.
• Gage shall pass smoothly over the blades.
• Gaps between the gage and blades shall not exceed 1/16 inch or tool shall
be rejected.
3.25 Sub Inspection In paragraph 3.25.6.h, there have been changes made to the fishing neck length
requirements of Type B Subs. The minimum fishing neck length is now accord-
ing to the requirements of paragraph 3.24.6.c (Stabilizer Fishing Neck Length
Requirements) and is based on Connection OD:
OD ≤ 3-1/2" 12"
3-1/2" < OD ≤ 8" 15"
OD >8" 18"
The Float Bore Dimension table has been expanded and is now in the Inspec-
tion Tables tab as table 3.10. For calculating non-standard Float Bore depths
and diameters, refer to table 3.10.1 for guidance.

(continued)
3.31 FLUT 1 Changes to the Field Reference Standard include:
• Must now be +1%, -3% or ±1/32 inch of nominal OD of the pipe to be in-
spected, whichever is larger.
• Must now contain two (2) wall thickness sections. If not specified by the
customer they must contain one section between 70-80% of nominal wall
thickness and one section between 95-100% of nominal wall thickness.
These section thicknesses must be verified by UT Wall Thickness Meter.
• Must now contain both longitudinal and transverse notches on OD and ID.
Third Edition only required OD and ID transverse notches.
3.32 FLUT 2 Changes to the Field Reference Standard include:

• Must now be +1%, -3% or ±1/32 inch of nominal OD of the pipe to be in-
spected, whichever is larger.
• Must now contain two (2) wall thickness sections. If not specified by the
customer they must contain one section between 70-80% of nominal wall
thickness and one section between 95-100% of nominal wall thickness.
These section thicknesses must be verified by UT Wall Thickness Meter.
3.33 Shop Repair and Per paragraph 3.33.8.1, all recut steel connections shall be subjected to phos-
Gauging of RSC phating using zinc phosphate or manganese phosphate methods in accordance
with Connection Phosphating (procedure 3.21).
Connection break in (Make and Break) is now recommended on all recut connec-
tions. They should be made up three (3) times at 60% of the minimum torsional
yield of the connection and be 100% inspected following the final makeup.
Inspection following recut (3.33.5) requires a check for shoulder squareness.
The squareness check is completed following thread standoff measurement
with a ring or plug gage.
If agreed upon between the customer and the refacing vendor, the refaced
connections (3.33.6) may be gauged and a check of shoulder squareness and
shoulder flatness performed.
