Drill String Components-Drill Pipe-Drill Pipe Selection Criteria Drill Pipe Let's start with definition of drill pipe. In Schulumberger Oilfield Glossary dril pipe defined as: Tubular steel conduit fitted with special threaded ends called tool joints. The drillpipe connects the rig surface equipment with the bottombole assembly and the bit, both to pump drilling fluid to the bit and to be able to raise, lower and rotate the bottomhole assembly and bit http:/Awww. glossary cilfield.slb.com/Termsid/drillpipe. asp Drill pipe serve different functions from DC's. Their duty only conduit drilling fluid and rotary to the bit. Itis mechanical linkage from surface to the BHA. So drillpipes not used to weight on bit and they don't have to be heavy and rigid as DC's API recommend 3 type of classification for Drill Pipes: 4. Length Classification Range-1: 18 to 22 ft Range-2: 27 to 30 ft (Most Common) Range-3: 38 to 5 ft 2. Grade Classification (Min Yield Strength) This parameter most important parameter because that is restrict our pull mit Yield Strongth is defined as the stress at which a material begins to plastic deformation. Before the yield point the material will deform elastically and it will return to its original shape when the stress is released. Ifthe tension applied is over this point the deformation will be permanent. The chart below you will see different yield strength (psi) via DP different DP class D-55 55,000 E-75 75,000 X-95 95,000 G-105 105,000 $-135 135,000 v-150 150,000 S-165 165,000 ‘As you realise the grading number denote 1000's of psi min. yield strength. ie.

Class-2 drill pipe yield strenght approximately less than 30% from new drill pipe.

These components are fabricated separately from the pipe body and welded onto the pipe at a manufacturing facility. The tool joints provide high-strength, high-pressure threaded connections that are sufficiently robust to survive the rigors of drilling and numerous cycles of tightening and loosening at threads. Tool joints are usually made of steel that has been heat treated to a higher strength than the steel of the tube body. The large-diameter section of the tool joints provides a low stress area where pipe tongs are used to grip the pipe. Hence, relatively small cuts caused by the pipe tongs do not ~— significantly impair the strength or ~—ilife. of thejointof —_drilipipe. Chttp:viwww glossary oilfield. sib.com/Termsittool_joint aspx ) addition of above explanation tool joints are basically elements of drill pipe that provides connections of drill string. All API tool joints have minimum yield strength of 120000 psi regardless of the grade of the drill pipe. API sets tool joint torsional strength at minimum 80% of the tube torsional strength. Make up torque determining generally 60% of the tool joint torsional strength. I this chart you will see tool joint marking ‘Sample markings at base of pin 1 2 3 5 Se 6 70, N 1.
