Drill Pipe

Made in Germany
 Preface

TPS-Technitube Röhrenwerke GmbH is a privately owned future oriented company operating up to date, worldwide
renowned production mills for Drill Pipe, oil- and gasfield tubular products, seamless tubes in alloy steels, stainless
steels, nickel, nickel alloys, titanium and titanium alloys, for extended surface tubes, as well as for special pipe
and tubing products. The TPS-Technitube Röhrenwerke production mills, located in Daun/Germany in the centre of
Europe, on an industrial site of more than 1,100,000 sq. ft. have an excellent reputation worldwide as reliable and
competent manufacturer of high quality pipe and tubular products and accessories.

Superior quality and excellent service are two watchwords that especially characterize the production branch for oil
and gasfield tubular products and accessories of TPS-Technitube Röhrenwerke. This is proved by the fact that TPS
OCTG-Products are applied worldwide in oil and gas exploration and production and that the TPS-Reference List for
OCTG-Products includes many of the major oil and gas companies around the world.

In this catalogue, we have the pleasure of presenting you detailed information and complete and comprehensive
data regarding our production range of drill pipes for application in the oil and gas exploration and production
industry. Further catalogues, giving detailed information on single product groups of our OCTG-Product Range, are
available (please refer to the back cover of this catalogue) and will be sent to you on request.

where:
e = minimum elongation in 2 inches (50.80 mm) in percent rounded to nearest 1/2 percent.
A = c ross sectional area of the tensile test specimen in square inches, baased on specified outside diameter or nominal
specimen width, and specified wall thickness, rounded to the nearest 0.01 sq.in., or 0.75 sq.in., whichever is smaller.
U = specified tensile strength, psi.

Treatment of Thread Surfaces

The tool joint threads are phosphated and in connection with the thread dope, according to API BUL 7A1, this
provides an excellent surface treatment to avoid galling during make-up and break-out.
As an alternative copper plated threads can be supplied on request.

 Extended internal upset runout 

Since well designs arising continous complicated, with multiple deviation sections and deep drilling, drill pipe abi-
lity has to be improved simultanously. The internal upset runout is an area where stresses from rotating through
deviated well sections and/or vibration causing the most fatigue. Well drilling is always forced by the time schedu-
le. If time loss is fetched back by engreased drilling speed, fatigue in the drill pipe upset runout section may result
in washouts. Large drill pipe sizes (4“ and larger) causing more fatigue versus smaller sizes. Each serious drill
pipe standard (e. g. API SPEC. 5DP, Fearnly Procter NS-1, T H Hill Standard DS-1) includes obligations regarding
this facts. Internal upset runouts in TPS drill pipe are always longer than the minimum requirements for extended
internal upset runout acc. to todays standards. TPS provides drill pipe with potential for high drilling efficiency an/
or potential for an extended drill pipe life.

 Hardfacing/Hardbanding

Application Samples:

Where well design or rock formations causing exten-

sive loss of tool joint steel, protection for wear should
be applied around the Box OD section at runout taper.
Additional hardbanding at PIN OD runout is also appli-
cable.

With regards to tong space, hardfacing may cause an

extended tool joint length. Recommended extension
length for tool joints is two inch, but customer require-
ments are also applicable for new production.

TPS offers two specialized product lines:

Products from Arnco Technology Trust Ltd.:

• Arnco 100XT™
is a crack-free, casing-friendly product exhibiting casing wear percentages among the lowest measured.
• Arnco 150XT™
is a crack-free, casing-friendly hardbanding, offering an ideal balance between durability and casing wear.
• Arnco 300XT™
is the most durable casing-friendly hardbanding alloy.

Products from NOV Tuboscope™

• Tuboscope TCS™ 8000

is designed for good all-around performance and maximum casing protection.
• Tuboscope TCS™ Titanium
is a popular hardbanding choice features high-stress abrasion resistance and the ability to resist cracking and
spalling.

 Internal Coating

TPS offers Coating TK-34P, together with the leader of internal coating application, NOV Tuboscope.

It is a green Powder-Epoxy Novolac. High quality coating with a thickness of 150-500 µm, 100% holiday free, tightly
ahered and homogenous. Pressure capability is the same as the pipe yield strengt. Temperature resistance is provided
up to 204°C resp. 400°F. This coating serves primary natural and synthetic drilling muds and completion fluids.

Internal coated drill pipe Drill pipe without internal coating, Drill pipe with internal coating,
after acidizing after acidizing

Causale improvements inside a drill string*:

• Scale mitigation during coating application process.

• No corrosion while drilling.
• No corrosion while running and pulling.
• No corrosion from testing.
• No corrosion from stimulation.
• Preventation for deposits.
• Improved hydraulic efficiency.
• No residual drilling mud after cleaning.
• No corrosion during storage.
• Preventation for corrosion fatigue.
• Preventation for washout failures.

* Internal coating should be applied to all applicable components of a drill string.

Benefits:

• Increased drill pipe life.

• Advanced drill pipe application range.
• Increased reliability.
• Less maintenance.
• Enery saving (9% or more).
• Option for engreased drilling rates.

Archiving internal coating benefits during drill pipe life as long as possible:

• Do not damage drill pipe coating during internal work/service op.

• Tools shall be special prepared for work in coated drill pipe.
• Wires and cables shall be special prepared for work in coated drill pipe.

1 lb/ft = 0,016018 kg/dm

62,427952 lb/ft = 1 kg/dm

Torque *
1 foot pound - force ft - lbf ≙ 1 ft - lb = 1,3558 Nm

0,7376 ft - lbf = 1 Nm

Energy
1 ft - lbf ≙ 1 ft - lb = 1,355818 Joule (J)

0,737562 ft - lbf = 1J

Speed
1 mile per hour (m.p.h.) = 1,609344 km/h
1 foot per second (ft/s) = 0,3048 m/s

0,621371 m.p.h. = 1 km/h

1000 ft lbf/s = 1,8182 hp = 1,28182 btu/s = 1,35582 kW

737,562 ft lbf/s = 1 kW = 1,359621617 PS

1 PS = 0,73549875 kW

Flow Rate
1 barrel per day = 0,158987 m/day
1 cubic foot per minute (ft/min) = 0,02831685 m/min = 40,776192 m/day

Temperature
Conversion formula °F to °C = 5/9 (°F - 32)
Conversion formula °C to °F = °C x 9/5 + 32
32 °F = 0 °C
212 °F = 100 °C
