【Ganggang Sees】A standard for hot-rolled wide steel strip, led by Handan Iron and Steel, fills an industry gap; The "Chasing Dreams in the New Era" national mainstream media news photography exhibition opens in Beijing...
The industry standard for "Hot-rolled Wide Steel Strip for Oil and Gas Well Casing and Tubing," formulated by HBIS Group Handan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd., has officially been implemented. This industry standard fills the research gaps in the field of hot-rolled wide steel strip and has been comprehensively assessed to reach an advanced level domestically.
Casing and tubing for oil and gas wells are classified into electric resistance welded pipes and seamless pipes according to production processes. Compared to seamless pipes, electric resistance welded pipes have advantages such as higher dimensional accuracy in wall thickness, better weld toughness, better resistance to extrusion, easier quality control, and lower costs. In recent years, with the development of steel smelting and rolling technology in China and the improvement of welding technology, the proportion of welded casings in use has gradually increased, leading to a corresponding increase in the demand for hot-rolled wide steel strips for oil and gas well casings and tubing among pipe manufacturing enterprises.
Handan Iron and Steel has transformed its production line equipment and technological advantages into product advantages, achieving steady improvements in the quality and market share of hot-rolled wide steel strips for oil and gas well casing and tubing. Handan Iron and Steel has closely aligned itself with the development needs of the steel industry, focusing on key common industry challenges, continuously innovating in process and product application technology research, and actively leading and participating in the formulation of national and industry standards.
The industry standard for "Hot-rolled Wide Steel Strips for Casing and Tubing in Oil and Gas Wells," formulated by Handan Iron and Steel, applies to hot-rolled wide steel strips for casing and tubing in oil and gas wells with a thickness not exceeding 25.4 mm. This standard specifies the grades of the steel strips, order content, dimensions, shape, weight, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, packaging, marking, and quality certificate.
The formulation and implementation of this standard will significantly reduce the technical agreement content in the orders placed by downstream users of oil and gas well casings and tubing with steel mills, thereby promoting the healthy development of the industry for hot-rolled wide steel strips used in oil and gas well casings and tubing in China.
