Problems solved by technology

Moreover, the low density of titanium alloy will make the material cost of titanium alloy tubing per unit length lower than that of nickel-based alloys. At the same time, titanium alloy pipe processing technology has made rapid progress in the past 20 years. In addition, the strength of titanium alloy through rolling or heat treatment is just It can reach 120ksi, while the nickel-based alloy pipe needs to be hardened by cold work to reach the strength level of 120ksi. During the cold deformation process, cracks and other defects are easy to occur, which will further reduce the yield of the pipe.
[0004] But the fly in the ointment is that the surface hardness of titanium alloy is low, the wear resistance is poor, and the thermal conductivity is poor. When titanium alloy is in contact with titanium alloy or other metals, it is prone to adhesive wear and fretting wear, so that the titanium alloy pipes connected by threads , the thread is prone to bite and sticking during the make-up and break-out process, which destroys the structural integrity and sealing integrity of the pipe string

Abstract

The invention relates to a processing method for preventing connection thread gluing of a titanium alloy oil well pipe. A shot blasting process is used for processing a connection external thread, and the hardness and the abrasive resistance of the surface of the connection external thread are improved. Meanwhile, a nickel/copper preplating process is used for a connection internal thread, a layer of copper film which is well combined with a titanium alloy matrix is electroplated on the surface of the connection internal thread, the hardness and the abrasive resistance of the surface of the connection internal thread are improved, and a friction condition is improved. Moreover, graphite is used for lubricating the internal thread and the external thread, and the friction coefficient between the surface of the internal thread and the surface of the external thread is effectively lowered. The method can effectively solve the problem of the connection thread gluing of the titanium alloy oil well pipe.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing the thread of a titanium alloy oil well pipe joint used in the field of petroleum and natural gas production, so as to prevent the thread from sticking during use. This treatment method is suitable for API threads and non-API threads. Background technique [0002] Titanium alloy is an important structural metal material that emerged in the 1950s. Compared with other structural metal materials, titanium alloy has two significant advantages: high specific strength and excellent corrosion resistance. First, the density of titanium is 4.51g / cm 3 , Only 57% of steel, but its yield strength exceeds many alloy structural steels. In addition, compared with other metal structural materials, titanium alloys have higher high-temperature strength. Common structural titanium alloys still have sufficient strength when used below 400°C, and their high-temperature strength is significantly better than stainless steel and he...
