Drill Pipe
Proper break-in is probably the most important factor affecting the life of
the tool joint connection. Here are some recommendations to follow:
1. Proper make-up torque is determined by the connection type, size,
OD and ID and may be found in torque tables. If a torque range is
given, maximum recommended makeup torque should be applied
when possible.
2. Make up connections slowly, preferably using chain tongs. High
speed kelly spinners or the spinning chain used on initial make-up
can cause galling of the threads.
3. Tong them up to the predetermined torque using a recently
calibrated torque gauge to measure the required line-pull.
Note: Monitor breakout torque. It should be less than or no greater
than make-up torque. If it is greater, the connection should be
cleaned, inspected and repaired, before it is made up again.

Notes:
1. The use of outside diameters (OD) smaller than those listed in the table may be acceptable on Slim Hole
(S.H.) tool joints due to special service requirements.
2. Make-up torque values may be lower than those published in API RP7G Latest Edition. The make-up
values are lower due to the combined torsional and tensile loads found in service conditions.

TurboTorque connections are the first in the industry to provide
a Turbo-MUT. Also known as "torque-on-demand", Turbo-MUT
provides an additional 8% of torque capacity for those unusual
drilling situations when additional torque is required. Most of the
testing and design validation for the TurboTorque family were
conducted on connections made up to the Turbo-MUT value.

Tong Height
Bucking up tool joints with tongs can put high bending loads in
the pipe.
Review the IADC Drilling Manual Latest Edition or Tong Height Figure
in API RP7G Latest Editon about height of tool joint above slips to
prevent bending pipe during tonging.

Tripping
Alternate breaks when tripping so that each joint will be broken-out
every third trip.
Monitor break-out torque.
The break-out torque should be less than the make-up torque. High
break-out torque is an indication of down-hole make-up or thread
damage.
Do not let the end of the pin strike the box make-up shoulder when
stabbing the pin in the box. Stabbing guides are required for XT and
XT-M connections, and recommended for all other Grant Prideco
proprietary connections.

Downhole Make-up
Downhole make-up can be detected by high break-out torque. The
break-out torque should be less than the make-up torque.
If downhole make-up is suspected, punch mark the pin and box next
to the make-up shoulders when tripping into the hole (after the connection is made up).
If downhole make-up occurs, the position of the punch marks will
change.
Downhole make-up can cause

Unlike the API "tangent bar", the NOV Grant Prideco benchmark step

connection circumference.

If the pin nose does not contact the gauge when used as shown in the
figure, the length should be inspected with measuring instruments that
determine the actual distance between the shoulders.

11/18/2010 5:37:11 PM
If the primary shoulder does not contact the gauge when used as
shown in the figure, the depth should be inspected with measuring
instruments that determine the actual distance between the shoulders.

Care And Maintenance
Initial Make Up
Even though quality connections are heavily coated with phosphate, thread
damage is not always prevented. A generous and thorough application of
high-quality thread dope (40 to 60 percent metallic zinc minimum) will
help prevent galling.
New connections should be walked in with chain tongs. Always use the
recommended make-up torque for the thread design. Exercise care to
maintain calibrated torque measuring and indicating gauges for future use.
After initial make-up, break-out the connection, visually inspect, redope
and make-up two more times before running in the hole.
Note: Monitor break-out torque it should be less than or no
greater than make-up torque. If it is greater, the connection
should be cleaned, inspected and repaired before it is made up
again.
Maintenance
Use thread protectors on both connections when handling drill collars.
Alternate different joints on each trip. Clean and inspect the individual
connections.

Notes: Torque figures preceded by an asterisk indicate that the weaker member for the corresponding outside diameter (OD) and bore is the BOX. For all other torque values the weaker member is the PIN.
Normal torque range is tabulated value plus 10%. Higher torque values may be used under extreme
conditions.

Notes: 1. Basis of calculations for recommended make-up torque assumed the use of a thread compound
containing a 0.08 coefficient of friction, applied thoroughly to all threads and shoulders, and
using the modified Jack Screw formula in Appendix A, paragraph A.8 and a unit stress of 62,500
psi in the box or pin, whichever is weaker.
2. In each connection size and type group, torque values apply to all connection types in the group,
when used with the same drill collar outside diameter and bore, i.e. 2 3/8, API IF, API NC 26, and 2
7/8 Slim Hole connections used with 3 1/2 x 1 1/4 drill collars all have the same minimum make-up
torque of 4,600 ft-lb, and the BOX is the weaker member.
3. Make-up torque for 2 7/8 PAC connection is based on 87,500 psi stress and other factors listed in
note 1.
4. Make-up torque for H-90 connection is based on 56,200 psi stress and other factors listed in note 1.

Notes:
1. The minimum size drill collar, calculated from the Lubinski and Hock equation, with the specific sizes of
hole and casing combination, is too large for conventional fishing tools. When the minimum drill collar
diameter is too large to washover and/or catch with an overshot, other steps should be taken. Some of
the possibilities are as follows:
Use turned down casing couplings.
Use integral joints on casing.
Under-ream the hole.
Run smaller size casing.
2. Use a packed hole assembly instead of a pendulum.
3. Not API standard size drill collar.

General Notes on Subs
1. Other lengths may be specified by the customer, example 48 inches.
2. Fishing neck (tong space) length, unless specified otherwise, is one
half the overall length of the sub. For example, 18 inch fishing neck
(tong space) on a 36 inch sub; 24 inch on a 48 inch sub.
3. Bevel Diameters:
A. If the connection is to screw onto a piece of Drill Pipe (pipe, D/P)
use the bevel diameters listed on drawing HB1003 in the Bevel
Dia. section of the Machining Handbook.
B. If the connection is a Bit Box (with or without a float bore) use the
bevel diameters listed in column B in the top chart of drawing
HB1017 Float Bore in this section of the Machining Handbook.
C. If the connection is to screw onto a Drill Collar (Collar, D/C) use
the bevel diameters listed at the bottom of the drawing of the
specified connection.
4. Float bore not applicable for double-shouldered connections

Height of Kick (ft) = Pit Gain Annular Capacity in Bbls/ft
Density of Kick Fluids (ppg) = MW [(SICP-SIDPP) Height of Kick
0.052]
Approximate Typical Fluid Densities: Gas-2ppg, Oil-7ppg, Water-9ppg
Lag Time Rule of Thumb: Pressure changes from choke movement will take
about two seconds per 1000 of depth to travel down the annulus and up
the drill pipe to the DP gauge.
Sacks of Barite needed to Weight-Up Mud = Bbls Mud x 14.7 x (KWMOWM) (35.4-KWM)
Volume Increase in Bbls from adding Barite = Sacks Added 14.9
Volume Increase in Bbls from adding Barite = (Gel) = Sacks Added 8.75
Triplex Pump Output (bbls/stk @ 100%) = 0.000243 x Stroke Length x
(Liner Dia)2
Duplex Pump Outlet (bbl/stk @ 100%) = 0.000162 x Stroke x
[(2 x Liner Dia2) - Rod Dia2]
Annular Capacity (bbls/ft) = (ID2hole - OD2pipe) 1029
