GCHNF Drillpipe Datasheet
Generic String
Before use, confirm manufacture spec against NS-1 & last inspection was to NS-2
Basic Specifications
NEW PREMIUM (Min)
Tool Joint OD 6.625 in 6.3125 in
Tool Joint ID 3.25 in 3.25 in
Tube OD 5.0 in 4.855 in
Drift Diameter 3.125 in
Capacity 0.01703 bbls/ft These cap/disp figures are as
per manufacturer datasheet. For
Displacement (Closed End) 0.02559 bbls/ft critical jobs, local checks /
calculation are recommended.
Displacement (Open End) 0.00856 bbls/ft
NOTE: The above max values can only be used when there is a single load case. For combined loads
(Torque & Tension), these values decrease thus reference "Combined Loading Charts" on page 3.
Handling Equipment
Elevators must be equipped with an 18° internal taper for lifting the box end tool joints.
Collapse Resistance
For consideration only during BOP Pressure Testing or when tension loads are negligible.
Tube may collapse if the externally applied pressure differential across the tube exceeds 10,024 psi.
(9,022 psi with Safety Factor of 0.90).
Generic String
Make-up Torques
Make Make-up torque values given are calculated using the standard API formula taken from API
Recommended Practice 7G 16th Edition, 1998.
* The recommended make-up torque is based on a review of Delivery Ticket XYZ for drillpipe
dispatched to the XXX in XYZ, which found the minimum OD of the tooljoints to be XXX”.
Care is necessary if the drill pipe is being screwed onto another component (eg Crossover, HWDP,
Pup joint) to ensure that ID & OD dimensions are checked and material specification differences are
taken into account with the MUT.
