Product Introduction:


Baoji Dingding titanium | special titanium alloy products for petroleum drilling tools to overcome the performance benchmark of extreme drilling

In extreme drilling scenarios such as shale gas horizontal wells, deep-sea oil and gas fields, and high sulfur gas reservoirs, the drilling tool needs to withstand 180MPa high pressure, H ɑ s strong corrosion and high-frequency vibration impact at the same time, and its performance directly determines the drilling cycle and operation safety. Baoji Dingding titanium, the core enterprise of "China Titanium Valley", focuses on TC4, TC11 and TC18, strictly follows API 5dp and ISO 13680 standards, and through the core process of "multi-directional rapid forging+gradient quenching and tempering", creates titanium alloy products of petroleum drilling tools with tensile strength of 960-1100mpa, providing reliable material solutions for oil and gas exploration and development.

1、 Material breakthrough: performance advantages of tc4/tc11/tc18

Compared with the traditional 35CrMo and 4145H steel drilling tools, TC4, TC11 and TC18 titanium alloys, with their unique crystal structure and alloy ratio, have achieved a qualitative leap in the four core properties, completely solving the industry pain points of "corrosion fracture, fatigue failure and heavy load energy consumption" of steel drilling tools:

Sulfur resistance and corrosion resistance: eliminate SSC failure from the root

The 5-10nm dense oxide film naturally formed on the surface of titanium alloy can effectively isolate high sulfur oil and gas, acid drilling fluid and Cl ⁻ corrosion. The sulfur resistance grade of TC18 reaches SSC C110, and there is no crack in the stress corrosion test for 5000 hours under the working condition of H ɑ s partial pressure of 0.3MPa and temperature of 120 ℃; The corrosion rate of TC4 in 15% hydrochloric acid solution is only 0.0001 mm/year, which is more than 10 times longer than that of 316L stainless steel drilling tool.

High pressure fatigue resistance: suitable for extreme load scenarios

Through composition optimization and process control, three kinds of materials form gradient performance coverage: TC4 tensile strength ≥ 960mpa, meeting the requirements of conventional deep wells; TC11 is lifted to 1000MPa, which is suitable for high temperature and high pressure wells; By virtue of the composition advantage of ti-4.4al-4mo-2sn, TC18 has a tensile strength of more than 1100mpa, no fatigue crack after 10 cycles of load test, and can withstand high-frequency vibration and impact load of drill string. The fatigue resistance limit is 40% -60% higher than that of steel drilling tools.

Lightweight: the core advantage of load reduction and energy saving

The density of titanium alloy is only 4.51g/cm ³, which is 45% less than that of steel drilling tools -- Taking 6-5/8 "drill pipe as an example, the weight of a single drill pipe is reduced from 400kg to 220kg, which directly reduces the load of the drilling rig lifting system by 180kg. Due to the high flexibility of TC18 containing Sn element, the friction loss in the bending section of shale gas horizontal well is reduced by 30%, the comprehensive energy consumption of drilling platform is reduced by 15%, and the wear rate of wellhead equipment is reduced by 25%.

Wide temperature adaptation: covering the whole scene of drilling environment

Based on the synergistic effect of different alloy elements, the full temperature range is achieved: TC4 (Ti-6Al-4V) is stable in the neutral energy of conventional deep wells drilled at -40 ℃ to 400 ℃; TC11 (ti-6.5al-3.5mo-2zr-0.3si) is strengthened by Mo and Zr elements, and its temperature resistance exceeds 550 ℃, which is suitable for deep geothermal drilling; TC18 has no embrittlement and creep in high sulfur gas reservoirs from -40 ℃ deep sea to 350 ℃, which can meet the requirements of multi scene alternate operation.

2、 Core product: accurate matching of materials with drilling requirements

In combination with the characteristics of three major materials and the requirements of different drilling procedures, three series of products of drill pipe, drill collar and tool accessories are created to realize the customized supply of "one well one policy":
