Introduction
Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) are essential components used in drilling and production operations within the oil and gas industry. These goods consist of a range of steel tubular products such as casing, tubing, and drill pipes designed for use in demanding environments encountered during exploration, drilling, and production activities.
Function
Casing pipes are primarily used to line the wellbore to prevent the collapse of the hole and protect the drilling operation from formation fluids.
Types
Casing comes in various sizes, grades, and weights, offering corrosion resistance, durability, and structural integrity to withstand high-pressure and harsh downhole conditions.
Purpose
Tubing is employed to convey fluids from the well to the surface and is essential for production and injection operations.
Varieties
Tubing is available in different sizes, grades, and specifications, designed to withstand varying levels of pressure, temperature, and corrosive elements.
Usage
Drill pipes form the foundation of the drilling process, transmitting drilling fluid to the drill bit and providing strength and durability for the drilling operation
Characteristics
Drill pipes are manufactured with high-strength steel and come in standardized lengths and diameters suitable for drilling operations.
