API 5DP drill pipes are high-performance, seamless steel pipes designed for demanding drilling operations in oil and gas exploration. Manufactured in compliance with API Specification 5DP (American Petroleum Institute), these pipes ensure superior strength, fatigue resistance, and durability in extreme downhole conditions.
Material & Manufacturing
Premium-grade alloy steel with seamless construction.
Heat-treated for enhanced mechanical properties (yield strength, toughness).
Dimensional Standards
Sizes: Ranges from 2⅜" to 6⅝" OD (outer diameter).
Lengths: Range 1 (18–22 ft), Range 2 (27–30 ft), or custom lengths.
Weight classes: E, X, G, S grades per API 5DP.
Performance Advantages
High torsional strength and fatigue resistance for deep/ERD (Extended Reach Drilling).
Optimized tool joint connections (API Spec 7-1) to prevent thread leaks or failures.
Resistant to corrosion, abrasion, and shock loads.
Certifications & Testing
Fully compliant with API 5DP (including dimensional, chemical, and mechanical tests).
Optional: NACE MR-0175 for H₂S service, ultrasonic inspection (UT), and hardness testing.
Onshore/offshore oil & gas drilling.
Horizontal drilling (HDD) and geothermal wells.
High-torque, high-RPM applications.
Extended Service Life: Reduced replacement frequency due to superior wear resistance.
Cost Efficiency: Minimizes downtime and drilling risks.
Global Acceptance: API certification ensures compatibility with international rig equipment.
