Description

  The present disclosure relates to an oil well pipe, and more particularly, to an oil well pipe made of stainless steel and connected to another oil well pipe.

Conventionally, martensitic stainless steel has been widely used in oil well environments. Conventional oil well environments contain carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ) and / or chlorine ions (Cl ⁻ ). Martensitic stainless steel (hereinafter referred to as 13% Cr steel) containing about 13% by mass of Cr has excellent corrosion resistance in such a conventional oil well environment.

In recent years, deep oil wells have been developed due to soaring crude oil prices. Deep oil wells are deep. And deep oil wells are highly corrosive and hot. More specifically, the deep well contains a hot corrosive gas. Corrosive gases, CO ₂ and / or Cl ^- containing, further, sometimes containing hydrogen sulfide gas. Corrosion reactions at high temperatures are more severe than those at normal temperatures. Therefore, oil well steel used for deep oil wells is required to have higher strength and corrosion resistance than 13% Cr steel.

  Here, duplex stainless steel has a higher Cr content than 13% Cr steel. Therefore, duplex stainless steel has higher corrosion resistance than 13% Cr steel. Examples of the duplex stainless steel include 22% Cr steel containing 22% Cr and 25% Cr steel containing 25% Cr. However, duplex stainless steel is expensive because it contains many alloying elements. Accordingly, there is a need for stainless steel that has higher corrosion resistance than 13% Cr steel and is less expensive than duplex stainless steel.

  In response to this requirement, stainless steel containing 15.5-18% Cr and having high corrosion resistance in a high temperature oil well environment has been proposed. Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2005-336595 (Patent Document 1) proposes a stainless steel pipe having high strength and having carbon dioxide corrosion resistance in a high temperature environment of 230 ° C. The chemical composition of this steel pipe contains 15.5-18% Cr, 1.5-5% Ni and 1-3.5% Mo, Cr + 0.65Ni + 0.6Mo + 0.55Cu-20C ≧ 19.5 is satisfied, and Cr + Mo + 0.3Si-43.5C-0.4Mn-Ni-0.3Cu-9N ≧ 11.5 is satisfied. The metal structure of this steel pipe contains 10 to 60% of a ferrite phase and 30% or less of an austenite phase, and the balance consists of a martensite phase.

  International Publication No. 2010/050519 (Patent Document 2) has corrosion resistance in a high-temperature carbon dioxide gas environment at 200 ° C., and further, the recovery of crude oil or gas temporarily stops the environment temperature of the oil well or gas well. We propose a stainless steel pipe with high resistance to sulfide stress corrosion cracking even when the resistance decreases. The chemical composition of this steel pipe contains more than 16% to 18% Cr, more than 2% to 3% Mo, 1 to 3.5% Cu, and less than 3 to 5% Ni. Mn] × ([N] −0.0045) ≦ 0.001 is satisfied. The metal structure of the steel pipe contains a ferrite phase of 10 to 40% by volume and a residual austenite phase of 10% or less, and the balance is a martensite phase.

  International Publication No. 2010/134498 (Patent Document 3) proposes a high-strength stainless steel having excellent corrosion resistance in a high temperature environment and excellent SSC resistance at room temperature. The chemical composition of this steel is over 16% to 18% Cr, 1.6 to 4.0% Mo, 1.5 to 3.0 Cu, and over 4.0 to 5.6%. Ni is contained, Cr + Cu + Ni + Mo ≧ 25.5 is satisfied, and −8 ≦ 30 (C + N) + 0.5Mn + Ni + Cu / 2 + 8.2-1.1 (Cr + Mo) ≦ −4 is satisfied. The metal structure of this steel contains a martensite phase, 10 to 40% ferrite phase, and a retained austenite phase, and the ferrite phase distribution ratio is higher than 85%.

  By the way, in the high Cr stainless steel containing 15.5 to 18% Cr disclosed in these documents, the low temperature toughness may be insufficient. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-209402 (Patent Document 4) proposes a high-strength stainless steel pipe for oil wells having excellent low-temperature toughness. This steel pipe contains 15.5 to 17.5% of Cr, and the largest one among the crystal grains in the microstructure has a distance between any two points in the crystal grain of 200 μm or less (in other words, In this case, the crystal grain size is 200 μm or less). In addition, in International Publication No. 2013/179667 (Patent Document 5), a GSI value defined as the number of ferrite-martensite grain boundaries existing per unit length of a line segment drawn in the thickness direction is a thickness. It is described that it has excellent corrosion resistance and low temperature toughness by having a structure of 120 or more in the center.

  In an oil well, a plurality of oil well pipes made of stainless steel as described above are connected by a threaded joint. The types of threaded joints are roughly classified into integral types and coupling types. In the integral type, oil well pipes are directly connected to each other. Specifically, a male screw part provided on the outer periphery of the end of another oil well pipe is screwed into a female screw part provided on the inner periphery of the end part of one oil well pipe, and the oil well pipes are connected to each other. In the coupling type, the oil well pipes are connected to each other through the coupling. Specifically, the oil well pipes are connected to each other by screwing a male screw part provided on the outer periphery of the end of the oil well pipe into each of the female screw parts provided on the inner periphery of both ends of the coupling.

  Generally, the end portion of the oil well pipe in which the male screw portion is formed is referred to as a pin because it includes an element inserted into the female screw portion. The end of the oil well pipe or coupling in which the female threaded portion is formed is referred to as a box because it includes an element that receives the male threaded portion.

  The threaded joint is required to have a sealing performance against external or internal pressure fluid. In order to ensure the sealing performance, a technique for providing a threaded joint with a seal portion by metal-metal contact is known. The seal part by metal-metal contact has a slightly larger diameter than the diameter of the seal surface of the box (hereinafter, this difference in diameter is referred to as an interference amount). When fitted, contact pressure is generated by the elastic recovery force of each seal surface, and the seal surfaces are in close contact with each other.

JP 2005-336595 A International Publication No. 2010/050519 International Publication No. 2010/134498 JP 2010-209402 A International Publication No. 2013/179667

  Although the seal portion is effective for ensuring the sealing performance, seizure may occur due to sliding of the seal surfaces when fastening the pin and the box. In an oil country tubular good connected using a threaded joint, it is desired to suppress the occurrence of seizure while ensuring sealing performance.

  An object of the present disclosure is to provide an oil well pipe capable of ensuring both excellent sealing performance and seizure resistance performance.

<1. About Oil Well Pipe Materials>
The oil well pipe according to the embodiment is made of stainless steel. Hereinafter, stainless steel used as the material of the oil well pipe according to the embodiment will be described.

  The matrix structure of stainless steel includes a ferrite phase, a tempered martensite phase, and an austenite phase (hereinafter referred to as a substantial martensite phase). In the matrix structure, when the ferrite phase and the substantial martensite phase extend along the rolling direction (length direction) and are arranged in layers, the stainless steel is excellent in low temperature toughness. On the other hand, when the ferrite phase is irregularly distributed like a network in the matrix structure, the low temperature toughness of stainless steel is low. When stainless steel is a steel plate, the central axis of the steel plate extended by rolling is defined as the rolling direction. When stainless steel is a steel pipe, the central axis of the steel pipe is the rolling direction.

  Here, the present inventors perform a two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform of a microstructure image, a microstructure microstructure, characterized in that the ferrite phase and the substantial martensite phase of stainless steel extend long in the length direction. Thus, it was found that both the thickness direction and the length direction can be evaluated and quantified. Hereinafter, this point will be described in detail.

  From a cross section perpendicular to the plate width direction of stainless steel, a microstructure image having an observation magnification of 100 times and a size of 1 mm × 1 mm is obtained by using an optical microscope in gray scale (256 gradations). An example of the microstructure image is shown in FIG. In FIG. 1, the microstructure image is arranged in the xy coordinate system. The y-axis in FIG. 1 is the length direction, and the x-axis is the thickness direction perpendicular to the length direction. In FIG. 1, the gray portion is the substantial martensite phase, and the white portion located between the grains of the substantial martensite phase is the ferrite phase. The microstructure image has M = 1024 pixels in the x-axis direction and N = 1024 pixels in the y-axis direction. That is, the microstructure image has the number of pixels of M × N = 1024 × 1024.

Two-dimensional data f (x, y) of each pixel (x, y) (x = 0 to M−1, y = 0 to N−1) is obtained from the microstructure image. f (x, y) represents the gray scale of the pixel at the coordinate (x, y). A two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform (2D DFT) defined by equation (5) is performed on the obtained two-dimensional data. M-1 = 1023 and N-1 = 1023.

  Here, F (u, v) is a two-dimensional frequency spectrum after two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform of the two-dimensional data f (x, y). The frequency spectrum F (u, v) is generally a complex number and includes information on the periodicity and regularity of the two-dimensional data f (x, y). In other words, the frequency spectrum F (u, v) includes information on the periodicity and regularity of the structure of the ferrite phase and the substantial martensite phase in the microstructure image as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 2 is a logarithmic frequency spectrum diagram of the microstructure image shown in FIG. The horizontal axis in FIG. 2 is the v-axis, and the vertical axis is the u-axis. The frequency spectrum diagram of FIG. 2 is a black and white gradation image (grayscale image), where the maximum value of the frequency spectrum is white and the minimum value is black. For example, in the case of FIG. 2, the portion having a high frequency spectrum (white portion in FIG. 2) has a shape extending on the u axis, and the boundary is not clear.

Here, in the frequency spectrum F (u, v) of the frequency spectrum diagram, the sum Su of the absolute values of the spectrum on the u-axis is defined by Expression (3). In the frequency spectrum F (u, v), the sum Sv of the absolute values of the spectrum on the v-axis is defined by Expression (4). Furthermore, the ratio of Su to Sv is β defined by equation (2). Note that Su and Sv do not include the spectral intensity at coordinates (0, 0) in the (u, v) space.

  Moreover, the microstructure image of the stainless steel shown in FIGS. Further, a logarithmic frequency spectrum diagram is obtained from each of the microstructure images shown in FIGS. 4 is a logarithmic frequency spectrum diagram of the microstructure image shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 6 is a logarithmic frequency spectrum diagram of the microstructure image shown in FIG. 5, and FIG. 8 is a diagram of the microstructure image shown in FIG. It is a logarithmic frequency spectrum diagram. Hereinafter, the microstructure shown in FIG. 1 is referred to as organization 1, the microstructure shown in FIG. 3 is referred to as organization 2, the microstructure shown in FIG. 5 is referred to as organization 3, and the microstructure shown in FIG. Four.

  Comparing the image of the structure 1 (FIG. 1) and the image of the structure 2 (FIG. 3), the structure 1 has a shape in which the ferrite phase and the substantial martensite phase extend in the rolling direction (length direction) more than the structure 2. . Further, the structure 1 is regular and has a shorter lamination period (period aligned in the thickness direction) of the ferrite phase and the substantial martensite phase than the structure 2. Comparing the image of the tissue 1 and the image of the tissue 3 (FIG. 5), each of the tissue 1 and the tissue 3 has a shape in which each phase extends in the length direction. Furthermore, the structure 3 has a short lamination period and is regular like the structure 1. Comparing the image of the tissue 3 and the image of the tissue 4 (FIG. 7), the tissue 3 has a shape in which each phase extends in the length direction as compared with the tissue 4. Furthermore, the structure 3 has a shorter lamination cycle than the structure 4 and is regular.

  Moreover, as for the logarithmic frequency spectrum figure of each structure | tissue 1-structure | tissue 4, the white part extends along u axis | shaft. However, the tissue 1 and the tissue 4 have a narrower white portion in the v-axis direction than the tissue 2 and the tissue 4. As for β, the structure 1 is 2.024, the structure 2 is 1.458, the structure 3 is 2.183, and the structure 4 is 1.395. In short, the lower β is, the shorter the white portion is in the u-axis direction and the v-axis direction is expanded.

Further, the transition temperature of ductile brittleness is that the structure 1 is −82 ° C., the structure 2 is −12 ° C., the structure 3 is −109 ° C., and the structure 4 is −19 ° C. The transition temperature is the result under the same conditions as in the examples described later. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the relationship between β and the transition temperature (° C.). FIG. 9 was obtained by the following method. The chemical composition is within the range of this embodiment described later, and a plurality of stainless steels having different βs were produced. Each stainless steel was subjected to a low-temperature toughness evaluation test described later to obtain a transition temperature, and FIG. 9 was created. The straight line in FIG. 9 is a line obtained by the least square method from all the plots in FIG. 9, and R ² is a correlation function.

  Thus, it turned out that there exists a tendency which is excellent in low-temperature toughness, when (beta) becomes large. From the above, it can be considered that β indicates the degree of layering.

  Based on the above findings, the present inventors have completed stainless steel used in the oil well pipe according to the embodiment. Hereinafter, the stainless steel will be described.

When each pixel is expressed in gray scale, β defined by Equation (2) is 1.55 or more.

However, in Formula (2), Su is defined by Formula (3), and Sv is defined by Formula (4).

In the equations (3) and (4), F (u, v) is defined by the equation (5).

[Chemical composition]
The stainless steel for oil country tubular goods according to the embodiment has the following chemical composition. Hereinafter, “%” related to an element means mass%.

C: 0.001 to 0.06%
Carbon (C) increases the strength of the steel. However, if there is too much C content, the hardness after tempering will become high too much and SSC resistance will fall. Furthermore, in the chemical composition of the present embodiment, the Ms point decreases as the C content increases. Therefore, as the C content increases, austenite tends to increase and yield strength tends to decrease. Therefore, the C content is 0.06% or less. The C content is preferably 0.05% or less, and more preferably 0.03% or less. Moreover, if the cost concerning the decarburization process in a steelmaking process is considered, C content is 0.001% or more. The C content is preferably 0.003% or more, and more preferably 0.005% or more.

Si: 0.05-0.5%
Silicon (Si) deoxidizes steel. However, if there is too much Si content, the toughness and hot workability of steel will fall. If the Si content is too large, the amount of ferrite produced further increases and the yield strength tends to decrease. Therefore, the Si content is 0.05 to 0.5%. The Si content is preferably less than 0.5%, more preferably 0.4% or less. The Si content is preferably 0.06% or more, and more preferably 0.07% or more.

Mn: 0.01 to 2.0%
Manganese (Mn) deoxidizes and desulfurizes steel and improves hot workability. If the Mn content is too small, the above effect cannot be obtained effectively. On the other hand, if the Mn content is too high, austenite tends to remain excessively during quenching, and it becomes difficult to ensure the strength of the steel. Therefore, the Mn content is 0.01 to 2.0%. The Mn content is preferably 1.0% or less, and more preferably 0.6% or less. The Mn content is preferably 0.02% or more, and more preferably 0.04% or more.

P: 0.03% or less Phosphorus (P) is an impurity. P decreases the SSC resistance of the steel. Therefore, it is preferable that the P content is as small as possible. The P content is 0.03% or less. The P content is preferably 0.028% or less, more preferably 0.025% or less. Moreover, although it is preferable to reduce P content as much as possible, extreme reduction leads to the increase in steelmaking cost. Therefore, the P content is preferably 0.0005% or more, and more preferably 0.0008% or more.

S: Less than 0.005% Sulfur (S) is an impurity. S decreases the hot workability of steel. Therefore, it is preferable that the S content is as small as possible. The S content is less than 0.005%. The S content is preferably 0.003% or less, and more preferably 0.0015% or less. Moreover, although it is preferable to reduce S content as much as possible, extreme reduction invites the increase in steelmaking cost. Therefore, the S content is preferably 0.0001% or more, and more preferably 0.0003% or more.

Cr: 15.5 to 18.0%
Chromium (Cr) increases the corrosion resistance of steel. Specifically, Cr lowers the corrosion rate and increases the SCC resistance of the steel. If the C content is too small, the above effect cannot be obtained effectively. On the other hand, if there is too much Cr content, the volume fraction of the ferrite phase in steel will increase and the strength of steel will fall. Therefore, the Cr content is 15.5 to 18.0%. The Cr content is preferably 17.8% or less, and more preferably 17.5% or less. The Cr content is preferably 16.0% or more, and more preferably 16.3% or more.

Ni: 2.5-6.0%
Nickel (Ni) increases the toughness of the steel. Ni further increases the strength of the steel. If the Ni content is too small, the above effect cannot be obtained effectively. On the other hand, if the Ni content is too large, a large amount of austenite is generated, and as a result, the strength of the steel decreases. Therefore, the Ni content is 2.5 to 6.0%. The Ni content is preferably less than 6.0%, and more preferably 5.9% or less. The Ni content is preferably 3.0% or more, and more preferably 3.5% or more.

V: 0.005-0.25%
Vanadium (V) increases the strength of the steel. However, if there is too much V content, toughness will fall. Therefore, the V content is 0.005 to 0.25%. V content becomes like this. Preferably it is 0.20% or less, More preferably, it is 0.15% or less. V content becomes like this. Preferably it is 0.008% or more, More preferably, it is 0.01% or more.

Al: 0.05% or less Aluminum (Al) deoxidizes steel. However, when there is too much Al content, the inclusion in steel will increase and the toughness of steel will fall. Therefore, the upper limit is made 0.05%. The Al content is preferably 0.048% or less, and more preferably 0.045% or less. The Al content is preferably 0.0005% or more, and more preferably 0.001% or more.

N: 0.06% or less Nitrogen (N) increases the strength of steel. However, if there is too much N content, austenite will produce | generate excessively and the inclusion in steel will also increase. As a result, the toughness of the steel is reduced. Therefore, the N content is 0.06% or less. N content is 0.05% or less, More preferably, it is 0.03% or less. The N content is preferably reduced as much as possible, but extreme reduction leads to an increase in steelmaking costs. Therefore, the N content is preferably 0.001% or more, and more preferably 0.002% or more.

O: 0.01% or less Oxygen (O) is an impurity. O reduces the toughness and corrosion resistance of steel. Therefore, the O content is 0.01% or less. The O content is preferably less than 0.01%, more preferably 0.009% or less, and still more preferably 0.006% or less. The O content is preferably reduced as much as possible, but extreme reduction leads to an increase in steelmaking costs. Therefore, the O content is preferably 0.0001% or more, and more preferably 0.0003% or more.

Mo: 0 to 3.5%, W: 0 to 3.5%
Molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) are elements that can be substituted for each other, and may contain both or only one. It is essential that Mo and W contain at least one. These elements increase the SCC resistance of the steel. On the other hand, if there is too much content of these elements, the effect will be saturated. Therefore, Mo content is 0-3.5%, W content is 0-3.5%, and 1 type or 2 types selected from the group which consists of Mo and W satisfy | fills Formula (1). It is necessary to contain in the range. Mo content becomes like this. Preferably it is 3.3% or less, More preferably, it is 3.0% or less. Mo content becomes like this. Preferably it is 0.01% or more, More preferably, it is 0.03% or more. W content becomes like this. Preferably it is 3.3% or less, More preferably, it is 3.0% or less. The W content is preferably 0.01% or more, and more preferably 0.03% or more.
1.0 ≦ Mo + 0.5W ≦ 3.5 (1)

Copper (Cu) and cobalt (Co) are mutually replaceable elements. These elements are selective elements. These elements increase the volume fraction of the tempered martensite phase and increase the strength of the steel. Furthermore, Cu precipitates as Cu particles during tempering and further increases its strength. If the content of these elements is too small, the above effects cannot be obtained effectively. On the other hand, if there is too much content of these elements, the hot workability of steel will fall. Therefore, the Cu content is 0 to 3.5%, and the Co content is 0 to 1.5%. Further, in order to sufficiently obtain the above effect, it may contain one or two selected from the group consisting of Cu: 0.2 to 3.5% and Co: 0.05 to 1.5%. preferable.

Niobium (Nb), titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), and tantalum (Ta) are mutually replaceable elements. These elements are selective elements. These elements increase the strength of the steel. These elements improve the pitting corrosion resistance and SCC resistance of steel. If these elements are contained even a little, the above effect can be obtained. However, if there is too much content of these elements, the toughness of steel will fall. Therefore, the Nb content is 0 to 0.25%, the Ti content is 0 to 0.25%, the Zr content is 0 to 0.25%, and the Ta content is 0 to 0.25. %. Furthermore, in order to sufficiently obtain the above effects, Nb: 0.01 to 0.25%, Ti: 0.01 to 0.25%, Zr: 0.01 to 0.25%, and Ta: 0.00.

Calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), rare earth element (REM), and boron (B) are mutually replaceable elements. These elements are selective elements. These elements improve hot workability during production. If these elements are contained even a little, the above effect can be obtained to some extent. However, if there is too much content of Ca, Mg and REM, it will combine with oxygen to significantly reduce the cleanliness of the alloy and degrade the SSC resistance. Moreover, if there is too much B content, the toughness of steel will be reduced. Therefore, the Ca content is 0 to 0.01%, the Mg content is 0 to 0.01%, the REM content is 0 to 0.05%, and the B content is 0 to 0.005. %. In order to sufficiently obtain the above effects, Ca: 0.0005 to 0.01%, Mg: 0.0005 to 0.01%, REM: 0.0005 to 0.05%, and B: 0.0003 It is preferable to contain 1 type or 2 types selected from the group which consists of -0.005%.

  Note that the balance of the chemical composition of the stainless steel according to the present embodiment is Fe and impurities. An impurity here means the element mixed from the ore and scrap utilized as a raw material, or the element mixed from the environment of a manufacturing process, etc. when manufacturing stainless steel industrially.

[Microstructure]
The matrix structure of the stainless steel according to the present embodiment has a volume ratio of 40 to 70% tempered martensite phase, 10 to 50% ferrite phase, and 1 to 15% austenite phase. Henceforth,% regarding these volume fractions (fraction) of a matrix structure means volume%.

  The volume fraction of the ferrite phase in the matrix structure (ferrite fraction:%), the volume fraction of the austenite phase (austenite fraction:%), and the volume fraction of the tempered martensite phase (martensite fraction:%) are as follows. taking measurement.

[Measurement method of ferrite fraction]
Samples are taken from any location on the stainless steel. The surface of the sample corresponding to the stainless steel cross section (hereinafter referred to as the observation surface) is polished. The polished observation surface is etched using a mixed solution of aqua regia and glycerin. The portion corroded in white by etching is a ferrite phase, and the area ratio of the ferrite phase is measured by a point calculation method based on JIS G0555 (2003). Since the measured area ratio is considered to be equal to the volume fraction of the ferrite phase, this is defined as the ferrite fraction (%).

[Method for measuring austenite fraction]
The austenite fraction is determined using an X-ray diffraction method. A 15 mm × 15 mm × 2 mm sample is taken from any location on the stainless steel. Using samples, the X-ray intensities of the (200) plane and (211) plane of the ferrite phase (α phase), the (200) plane, the (220) plane, and the (311) plane of the austenite phase (γ phase) are measured. Measure and calculate the integrated intensity of each surface. After the calculation, the volume ratio Vγ is obtained by using the following equation (6) for each combination (6 sets in total) of each surface of the α phase and each surface of the γ phase. The average value of the volume fraction Vγ of each surface is defined as the austenite fraction (%).
Vγ = 100 / {1+ (Iα × Rγ) / (Iγ × Rα)} (6)

  Here, Iα is the integrated intensity of the α phase, Rγ is the crystallographic theoretical calculation value of the γ phase, Iγ is the integrated intensity of the γ phase, and Rα is the crystallographic theoretical calculation value of the α phase. .

[Measurement method of martensite fraction]
The remainder of the matrix structure other than the ferrite phase and the austenite phase is defined as the volume ratio (martensite fraction) of the tempered martensite phase. That is, the martensite fraction (%) is a value obtained by subtracting the ferrite fraction (%) and the austenite fraction (%) from 100%.

[Β]
In the stainless steel of the present embodiment, β defined by the formula (2) is 1.55 or more. β is obtained by the following method. A matrix structure is photographed at a magnification of 100 times from a cross section perpendicular to an arbitrary plate width direction of stainless steel (in the case of a steel pipe, a thick cross section parallel to the tube axis). The obtained 1 mm × 1 mm microstructure image is arranged in an xy coordinate system in which the thickness direction is the x-axis and the length direction is the y-axis, and each 1024 × 1024 pixel is represented in gray scale. Therefore, a microstructure image expressed in gray scale (256 gradations) is obtained from a cross section of a surface including a thickness direction and a length direction in stainless steel. Furthermore, β defined by the equation (2) is obtained from the microstructure image expressed in gray scale using two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform.

However, in Formula (2), Su is defined by Formula (3), and Sv is defined by Formula (4).

In the equations (3) and (4), F (u, v) is defined by the equation (5).

  In equation (5), f (x, y) represents the gradation of the pixel at coordinates (x, y).

  As described above, β and low temperature toughness have the relationship shown in FIG. The stainless steel according to one embodiment of the present invention has a ductile brittle transition temperature of −30 ° C. or less as shown in FIG. 9 when β obtained from the matrix structure is 1.55 or more. Therefore, the stainless steel according to one embodiment of the present invention exhibits excellent low temperature toughness at the normally required -10 ° C. β is preferably 1.6 or more, and more preferably 1.65 or more.

  From the above, the stainless steel according to the present embodiment has high strength, excellent SCC resistance at high temperature and SSC resistance at room temperature, and excellent low temperature toughness.

[Production method]
An example of the manufacturing method of the stainless steel of this embodiment is demonstrated. By hot rolling a steel material (slab, bloom, billet or other slab or steel slab) having the above-described chemical composition at a rolling rate as high as possible in an appropriate temperature range, a matrix structure having a β of 1.55 or more is obtained. can get. In this example, a stainless steel plate manufacturing method will be described as an example of a stainless steel manufacturing method.

  A steel material having the above chemical composition is prepared. The raw material may be a slab produced by continuous casting, or a plate material produced by hot working a slab or an ingot.

The prepared material is charged into a heating furnace or a soaking furnace and heated. The heated material is hot-rolled to produce an intermediate material (steel material after hot rolling). At this time, the rolling rate in the hot rolling process is set to 40% or more. Here, the rolling ratio (r:%) is defined by the following formula (7).
r = {1- (the thickness of the steel material after hot rolling / the thickness of the steel material before hot rolling)} × 100 (7)

  The steel material temperature (rolling start temperature) during hot rolling is set to 1200 to 1300 ° C. The steel material temperature here means the surface temperature of the material. The surface temperature of the material is measured at the start of hot rolling, for example. The surface temperature of the material is an average of the surface temperatures measured along the axial direction of the material. When the material is soaked in a heating furnace at a heating temperature of 1250 ° C., for example, the steel material temperature is substantially equal to the heating temperature and becomes 1250 ° C. Furthermore, the steel material temperature at the end of hot rolling (rolling end temperature) is preferably 1100 ° C. or higher.

  When a plurality of hot rolling steps are present during the manufacturing process, the rolling rate means the cumulative rolling rate of the hot rolling step continuously performed on the material having a steel material temperature of 1100 to 1300 ° C.

  When the steel material temperature falls below 1100 ° C. during hot rolling, a large amount of wrinkles may be generated on the surface of the steel material due to a decrease in hot workability. Therefore, the one where the heating temperature of steel materials is higher is preferable. On the other hand, in order to increase the degree of layering, it is preferable to roll at a high rolling rate.

  Quenching and tempering are performed on the base plate (intermediate material) after hot rolling. By performing quenching and tempering on the intermediate material, the yield strength of the stainless steel plate can be increased to 758 MPa or more. Furthermore, the matrix structure has a tempered martensite phase.

  Preferably, in the quenching step, the intermediate material is once cooled to a temperature near normal temperature. Then, the cooled intermediate material is heated to a temperature range of 850 to 1050 ° C. The heated intermediate material is cooled with water or the like and quenched to produce a stainless steel plate. Preferably, in the tempering step, the quenched intermediate material is heated to a temperature of 650 ° C. or lower. That is, the tempering temperature is preferably 650 ° C. or lower. This is because if the tempering temperature exceeds 650 ° C., austenite increases in the steel and the strength tends to decrease. Preferably, in the tempering step, the quenched intermediate material is heated to a temperature exceeding 500 ° C. That is, the tempering temperature is preferably a temperature exceeding 500 ° C.

  By the above manufacturing process, a stainless steel plate having β of 1.55 or more is manufactured. Stainless steel is not limited to a steel plate, and may have a shape other than a steel plate. Preferably, the material is soaked for a predetermined time at a temperature of 1200 to 1250 ° C., and then hot rolling is performed at a rolling rate of 50% or more and a rolling end temperature of 1100 ° C. or more. In this case, a stainless steel material having a high degree of layering can be obtained while suppressing generation of surface flaws.

<2. About the relation between the material and structure of the oil well pipe>
The present inventors have repeatedly studied the relationship between the material and structure of the oil well pipe, and obtained the following knowledge.

  When 13% Cr steel is used as the material of the oil well pipe, excellent corrosion resistance can be ensured. On the other hand, it is preferable to improve the sealing performance as much as possible in an oil well pipe connected by a plurality of threaded joints. As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have obtained knowledge that the sealing performance can be improved if the inclination of the sealing surface provided in the threaded joint of the oil well pipe is made gentle.

  The present inventors considered that the taper ratio of the sealing surface has a great influence on the sealing performance. Therefore, the present inventors conducted numerical simulation analysis by a finite element method, and investigated the relationship between the taper ratio of the seal surface and the sealing performance.

  FIG. 10 is a graph created based on the analysis result. In FIG. 10, the relationship between the taper ratio of the sealing surface and the sealing performance is indicated by a solid line. The taper ratio is a taper ratio of a linear portion included in the seal surface when viewed in a cross section of the oil well pipe cut along a plane including the pipe axis.

  In FIG. 10, the sealing performance refers to the value of the contact surface pressure generated at the seal part (the seal surface of the pin and the seal surface of the box) in a state where no tensile load is applied to the threaded joint, and the limit at which the oil well pipe itself yields. It is shown by the numerical value which contrasted with the value of the contact surface pressure which generate | occur | produces in a seal part in the state which applied the tension load of this to the threaded joint. It means that the smaller the value, the lower the sealing performance by pulling.

  FIG. 10 shows that the sealing performance decreases as the taper ratio of the sealing surface increases. In other words, the sealing performance decreases as the inclination of the sealing surface becomes steep. Therefore, in order to improve the sealing performance, the inclination of the sealing surface may be moderated.

  The present inventors also examined the relationship between the performance other than the sealing performance and the inclination of the seal surface. As a result, the present inventors have found that the inclination of the seal surface also affects the anti-seizure performance.

  The present inventors derived the relationship between the taper ratio of the seal surface and the anti-seizure performance by numerical simulation analysis using a finite element method. In FIG. 10, the relationship between the taper ratio of the seal surface and the anti-seizure performance is indicated by a one-dot chain line.

  In FIG. 10, the seizure resistance performance is shown by the reciprocal of the value obtained by integrating the peak contact surface pressure of the seal portion from the start to the completion of the fastening. The integral value is the energy generated by friction between the start and the end of fastening (approximately equal to the thermal energy) at the local point where the contact between the seal surfaces is strongest under the assumption that the friction coefficient is constant. ). Therefore, it can be said that as the reciprocal of the integral value increases, the energy generated by friction at the time of fastening decreases, so that goling hardly occurs and the seizure resistance performance is high.

  FIG. 10 shows that the anti-seizure performance increases as the taper ratio of the seal surface increases. That is, the anti-seizure performance increases as the inclination of the seal surface becomes steeper. When the inclination of the sealing surface is abrupt and the seizure resistance is improved, the sealing performance is lowered. When the inclination of the sealing surface is made gentle and the sealing performance is improved, the seizure resistance is lowered. That is, it can be seen that the seizure resistance performance is in a trade-off relationship with the sealing performance.

  The present inventors have found that when an oil well pipe is made of 13% Cr steel, the seizure resistance is particularly deteriorated. The present inventors considered that it is difficult to improve the sealing performance by making the inclination of the sealing surface gentle if the oil well pipe material is 13% Cr steel because of concern about the occurrence of seizure.

  Stainless steel is considered to have a lower thermal conductivity and a higher heat content as the Cr content increases. However, in the case of the stainless steel having the above-described chemical composition and matrix structure, the present inventors have a higher thermal conductivity than the 13% Cr steel even though the Cr content is 15.5% or more. I got the knowledge. From this, the present inventors can efficiently dissipate heat generated when sliding with other oil well pipes or couplings if the oil well pipe is made of stainless steel, and the inclination of the seal surface. The idea was that it would be possible to suppress the occurrence of burn-in even if the pressure was moderated. The present inventors have further studied and found a particularly preferable inclination of the sealing surface.

  As described above, the sealing performance increases as the taper ratio of the sealing surface decreases. However, the present inventors have newly found that the effect of improving the sealing performance is saturated when the taper ratio of the seal surface becomes 1/10. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, if the taper ratio of the sealing surface is 1/10 or higher, the sealing performance improves as the taper ratio decreases. However, if the taper ratio is less than 1/10, the taper ratio can be further reduced. The improvement in sealing performance cannot be expected. On the other hand, even if the taper ratio of the seal surface is less than 1/10, the anti-seizure performance decreases as the taper ratio decreases. The present inventors concluded from this result that the taper ratio of the sealing surface is preferably 1/10 or more.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the seizure resistance performance increases as the taper ratio of the seal surface increases. On the other hand, in order to bring the corresponding seal surfaces into uniform contact with each other by 360 °, it is preferable that the variation in the contact surface pressure of the seal portion immediately before the completion of fastening is small. FIG. 11 shows the relationship between the degree of change in the contact surface pressure of the seal portion and the taper ratio of the seal surface immediately before completion of fastening. From FIG. 11, when the taper ratio is 1/3 or less, the contact surface pressure of the seal portion does not fluctuate immediately before the completion of fastening, but when the taper ratio becomes larger than 1/3, the contact surface pressure of the seal portion immediately before the completion of fastening. You can see that it soars. Such a sudden increase in the contact surface pressure of the seal portion causes non-uniform contact surface pressure in the circumferential direction, thereby reducing the sealing performance. Therefore, the taper ratio of the seal surface is preferably 1/3 or less.

  Based on the above findings, the present inventors have completed the oil well pipe according to the embodiment.

  An oil well pipe according to one embodiment is made of stainless steel having the above-described chemical composition and matrix structure. The oil well pipe is connected to another oil well pipe directly or through a coupling. The oil well pipe includes a pipe body and a pin.

The box seal surface is formed on the inner periphery of the box on the tube main body side with respect to the female screw portion. The box seal surface includes a straight portion. The straight portion is inclined with respect to the tube axis so as to move away from the tube axis as viewed from the cross section of the oil well tube cut along the plane including the tube axis toward the female screw portion side. The taper ratio of the straight portion is 1/10 to 1/3.

  Oil well pipes according to other embodiments are also made of stainless steel having the above-described chemical composition and matrix structure. For this reason, the heat which generate | occur | produces when a box seal surface slides with a pin can be dissipated efficiently, and generation | occurrence | production of image sticking can be suppressed. The box seal surface includes a straight portion having a taper ratio 1/3 to 1/10 that is effective for improving the sealing performance. Therefore, according to the oil well pipe, it is possible to ensure both excellent sealing performance and anti-seizure performance.

The box seal surface 132 is disposed closer to the tube body 11 than the female thread portion 131. The box shoulder surface 133 is provided on the end surface of the box 13 on the tube body 11 side. That is, in the box 13, the female thread portion 131, the box seal surface 132, and the box shoulder surface 133 are arranged in this order from the end side of the oil well pipe 10 toward the pipe body 11 side.

The straight portion 132a is a straight portion that is inclined with respect to the tube axis CL so as to move away from the tube axis CL toward the female screw portion 131 side when viewed in a cross section of the oil well pipe 10 cut along a plane including the tube axis CL. It is. That is, the box seal surface 132 includes a circumferential surface of a truncated cone that gradually increases in diameter toward the female screw portion 131, and a linear portion 132a is configured by the circumferential surface of the truncated cone.

  In the present embodiment, the box seal surface 132 is composed of only the straight portion 132a when viewed in a cross section of the oil well pipe 10 cut along a plane including the pipe axis CL. However, the box seal surface 132 is configured by a combination of a straight portion 132a and one or more kinds of arcs and / or other straight portions as seen in a cross section of the oil well pipe 10 cut along a plane including the tube axis CL.

  The pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 have an interference amount. That is, the pin seal surface 122 has an outer diameter that is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the box seal surface 132. For this reason, the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 come into contact with each other as the pin 12 is screwed into the box 13, and in a fastened state, the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 are in close contact with each other. Thereby, the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 form a seal portion by metal-metal contact.

  The pin shoulder surface 123 and the box shoulder surface 133 are pressed against each other by screwing the pin 12 into the box 13. The pin shoulder surface 123 and the box shoulder surface 133 form a shoulder portion by such mutual pressing contact.

  As described above, in the oil well pipe 10 according to the present embodiment, the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 are provided with gently inclined surfaces. Specifically, the pin seal surface 122 is configured such that the taper ratio of the straight portion 122a is 1/10 to 1/3 when viewed in a cross section of the oil well pipe 10 including the pipe axis CL. Similarly, the box seal surface 132 is also configured so that the taper ratio of the straight portion 132a is 1/10 to 1/3. As described above, the sealing performance can be effectively improved within this taper ratio range.

  In addition, the oil well pipe 10 according to the present embodiment is made of stainless steel having the chemical composition and the matrix structure described in “1. The stainless steel has a higher thermal conductivity than that of 13% Cr steel and is less likely to accumulate heat. For this reason, in the oil well pipe 10 according to the present embodiment, heat generated when the pin seal surface 122 slides with the box seal surface 132 of another oil well pipe 10 can be efficiently dissipated, and the occurrence of seizure can be prevented. Can be suppressed.

  Therefore, according to the oil well pipe 10 according to the present embodiment, both excellent sealing performance and anti-seizure performance can be ensured.

  The structure of the oil well pipe according to the present disclosure is not limited to the above. For example, in the oil well pipe 10 shown in FIG. 12, the pin seal surface 122 is configured such that the taper ratio of the straight portion 122a is 1/10 to 1/3. The box seal surface 132 is also configured so that the taper ratio of the straight portion 132a is 1/10 to 1/3. However, one of the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 may not include such a straight portion. That is, one of the pin seal surface 122 and the box seal surface 132 is formed only on the peripheral surface of the rotating body whose arc is rotated around the tube axis CL, or a cone having a taper ratio of less than 1/10 or greater than 1/3. You may comprise only with the surrounding surface of a stand, and you may comprise only what combined these 1 or more types.

  In the oil well pipe 10, a pin shoulder surface 123 is provided on the pin 12, and a box shoulder surface 133 is provided on the box 13. However, the pin 12 and the box 13 may not include the pin shoulder surface 123 and the box shoulder surface 133, respectively.

  In the oil well pipe 10, a pin 12 is continuously formed at one end of the pipe body 11, and a box 13 is continuously formed at the other end. However, as shown in FIG. 15, pins 12 may be formed continuously at both ends of the tube body 11.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the oil well pipe 10 </ b> A includes pins 12 and 12 connected to respective ends of the pipe body 11 in the pipe axis direction. The oil well pipe 10 </ b> A does not include the box 13. The oil well pipe 10 </ b> A is connected to another oil well pipe 10 </ b> A through a tubular coupling 20. The coupling 20 has a box 21 at each of both ends in the tube axis direction. By inserting the pin 12 of one oil well pipe 10A into one box 21 and fastening it, and inserting the pin 12 of another oil well pipe 10A into the other box 21 and fastening it, the two oil well pipes 10A are connected. The

  Although not particularly illustrated, each box 21 of the coupling 20 has a female screw portion and a box seal surface corresponding to the male screw portion 121 and the pin seal surface 122 (FIG. 13) of the pin 12, respectively. When the pin 12 has the pin shoulder surface 123, each box 21 further has a box shoulder surface corresponding to the pin shoulder surface 123.

  The box seal surface of each box 21 may have the same configuration as the box seal surface 132 (FIG. 15) of the oil well pipe 10, but may have a different configuration. That is, the box seal surface of each box 21 may have a straight portion having a taper ratio of 1/10 to 1/3 when viewed in a cross section of the coupling 20 including the tube axis CL. May not be included.

  Although the embodiments have been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist thereof.

  Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in more detail by way of examples. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the following examples.

<1. About Oil Well Pipe Materials>
Steels of steel types A to V having chemical compositions shown in Table 1 were melted to produce ingots. The chemical compositions of steel types A to V are within the scope of the present embodiment. Each ingot was hot forged to produce a plate material having a width of 100 mm and a height of 30 mm. The manufactured board material was prepared as a steel raw material of numbers 1-36. In the chemical composition shown in Table 1, the content of each element is mass%, and the balance is Fe and impurities.

  A plurality of prepared materials were heated in a heating furnace. The heated raw material was extracted from the heating furnace, and after the extraction, hot rolling was performed immediately to produce intermediate materials having numbers 1 to 36. Table 2 shows the steel temperature of each material during hot rolling. In this example, since the material was heated in a heating furnace for a sufficient time, the steel material temperature was equal to the heating temperature. Table 2 shows the rolling ratio of each number in hot rolling.

  Quenching and tempering were performed on each of the intermediate materials of Nos. 1-36. The quenching temperature was 950 ° C. The holding time (heat treatment time) at the quenching temperature was 15 minutes. The intermediate material was quenched by water cooling. The tempering temperatures were 550 ° C. for the intermediate materials Nos. 23 to 30, 32, and 33, and 600 ° C. for the intermediate materials Nos. 2 to 22, 31, and 34 to 36. The holding time at the tempering temperature was 30 minutes. The steel plate of each number was manufactured according to the above manufacturing process.

[Microstructure observation test]
The steel plates Nos. 1 to 36 were cut in the length direction at the width center. A sample for microstructural observation was taken from the central portion of the steel sheet in the cut surface (the length direction is the y-axis and the thickness direction is the x-axis). From the collected samples, the area ratio was measured by the method described above and defined as the volume ratio of the ferrite phase. Furthermore, the volume fraction of the austenite phase was determined by the X-ray diffraction method described above. Furthermore, the volume ratio of the tempered martensite phase was determined by the above-described method using the volume ratio of the ferrite phase and the volume ratio of the austenite phase.

  Further, a microstructure image (for example, an image as shown in FIG. 1) having an observation magnification of 100 times and a size of 1 mm × 1 mm was obtained from an arbitrary position in the observation surface. Using the obtained microstructure image, β of each numbered steel sheet was calculated by the method described above.

[Yield strength evaluation test]
A round bar for a tensile test was collected from the central portion in the thickness direction of each of the steel plates Nos. 1 to 36. The longitudinal direction of the round bar was a direction (L direction) parallel to the rolling direction of the steel plate. The diameter of the parallel part of the round bar was 6 mm, and the distance between the gauge points was 40 mm. The collected round bar was subjected to a tensile test at room temperature in accordance with JIS Z2241 (2011) to determine the yield strength (0.2% yield strength).

[Low temperature toughness evaluation test]
A Charpy impact test was conducted as a low temperature toughness evaluation test. Full-size test pieces based on ASTM E23 were collected from the central part in the thickness direction of each of the steel plates of Nos. 1 to 36. The longitudinal direction of the test piece was parallel to the plate width direction. Using the collected specimen, a Charpy impact test was performed in a temperature range of 20 ° C. to −120 ° C., the absorbed energy (J) was measured, and the fracture surface transition temperature of ductile brittleness was obtained.

[High temperature SCC resistance evaluation test]
Four-point bending test pieces were collected from each of the steel plates Nos. 1-36. The length of the test piece was 75 mm, the width was 10 mm, and the thickness was 2 mm. The test piece was given deflection by 4-point bending. At this time, in accordance with ASTM G39, the amount of deflection of the test piece was determined so that the stress applied to the test piece was equal to the 0.2% offset proof stress of the test piece. A 200 ° C. autoclave in which 30 bar (3.0 MPa) CO ₂ and 0.01 bar (1 kPa) H ₂ S were sealed under pressure was prepared for each of Nos. 1 to 36. The bent specimen was stored in an autoclave. The test piece was immersed in a 25 mass% NaCl solution in an autoclave for 720 hours. The solution was adjusted to pH 4.5 with a CH ₃ COONa + CH ₃ COOH buffer system containing 0.41 g / l CH ₃ COONa. The presence or absence of occurrence of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) was observed on the test specimen after immersion. Specifically, the cross section of the portion where the tensile stress was applied to the test piece was observed with an optical microscope at a magnification of 100 times to determine the presence or absence of cracks. In Table 3, “No crack” is “Good”, “With crack” is “Good”, and “Good” is better in SCC resistance than “No”. Furthermore, corrosion weight loss was calculated | required based on the variation | change_quantity of the weight before a test, and the weight after immersion with respect to a test piece. The annual corrosion amount (mm / Year) was calculated from the obtained corrosion weight loss.

[SSC resistance evaluation test at room temperature]
A round bar test piece for NACE TM0177 METHOD A was collected from each of the steel plates Nos. 1-36. The diameter of the test piece was 6.35 mm, and the length of the parallel part was 25.4 mm. A tensile stress was applied in the axial direction of the test piece. At this time, based on NACA TM0177-2005, the stress applied to the test piece was adjusted to be 90% of the actual measured yield stress of the test material. The test piece was immersed in a 25 mass% NaCl solution saturated with 0.01 bar (1 kPa) of H ₂ S and 0.99 bar (0.099 MPa) of CO ₂ for 720 hours. The solution was adjusted to pH 4.0 with a CH ₃ COONa + CH ₃ COOH buffer system containing 0.41 g / l CH ₃ COONa. Furthermore, the temperature of the solution was adjusted to 25 ° C. The test piece after immersion was observed for the presence or absence of sulfide stress cracking (SSC). Specifically, among the test pieces numbered 1 to 36, for each of the test piece that was broken during the test and the test piece that was not broken, the parallel part was observed with the naked eye, and cracks or pitting corrosion was observed. The presence or absence of occurrence was determined. In Table 3, the case where there is no occurrence of cracks or pitting corrosion is o, the case where cracks or pitting corrosion occurs is x, and the case of o is more excellent in SSC resistance than the case of x.

[Test results]
Table 3 shows the test results. All of the steel plates numbered 1 to 36 have the ferrite phase volume fraction (α fraction), the austenite phase volume fraction (γ fraction) and the tempered martensite phase volume fraction (M fraction) of this embodiment. It was within the range. All of the steel materials of Nos. 1 to 36 had a yield strength of 758 MPa or more, an annual corrosion amount of 0.01 mm / year or less, and excellent SCC resistance and SSC resistance.

  Each of the steel materials of Nos. 1, 4, 7, 10, 12-16, and 19-36 had β of 1.55 or more. These steel materials have a transition temperature of −30 ° C. or less and are excellent in low temperature toughness.

  Moreover, all the steel materials of numbers 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 17, and 18 had β of less than 1.5, and the transition temperature exceeded −30 ° C. These steel materials are inferior in low temperature toughness.

<2. About the relation between the material and structure of the oil well pipe>
A stainless steel having a chemical composition and a matrix structure within the scope of the present disclosure was subjected to a Falex test and a make break test in order to confirm seizure resistance performance when applied to an oil well pipe.

[Falex test]
(Test conditions)
Three test pieces according to Example 1-1, Example 1-2, Comparative Example 1-1, and Comparative Example 1-2 were prepared, and a wear test using a Falex tester was performed. Common test conditions are shown below. The test end condition was a friction coefficient of 0.2 or more.
Test surface pressure: 2 GPa
-Journal pin rotation speed: 3rpm
-Journal pin side lubricant: Shell API modified thread compound type 3 manufactured by Shell
・ V-block side lubricant: None

  The test piece according to Example 1-1 is made of stainless steel having a chemical composition and a matrix structure within the scope of the present disclosure, and is subjected to surface treatment (sandblasting). The test piece according to Example 1-2 is made of the same stainless steel as the test piece according to Example 1-1, but is not subjected to surface treatment. In Table 4, content of the main elements of the stainless steel which comprises the test piece of Example 1-1 and 1-2 is shown. In Table 4, the content of each element is shown by mass%.

  The test piece according to Comparative Example 1-1 is made of stainless steel having a chemical composition outside the scope of the present disclosure, and is subjected to surface treatment (sandblasting). The test piece according to Comparative Example 1-2 is made of the same stainless steel as the test piece according to Comparative Example 1-1, but is not subjected to surface treatment. The stainless steel constituting the test pieces according to Comparative Examples 1-1 and 1-2 contains 11.9800 Cr in mass%.

(Evaluation)
For each of Example 1-1, Example 1-2, Comparative Example 1-1, and Comparative Example 1-2, the time from the test start to the end of each test piece (test end time) and the average thereof are shown in Table 5. Shown in

  From Table 5, when Example 1-1 and Comparative Example 1-1 in which the test piece was subjected to surface treatment were compared, Example 1-1 was found to have a longer test completion time than Comparative Example 1-1. . Also about Example 1-2 and comparative example 1-2 which did not give surface treatment to a test piece, it turns out that example 1-2 has a test end time longer than comparative example 1-2. In particular, in Example 1-2, the test end time is significantly extended as compared with Comparative Example 1-2. From this, it is expected that the stainless steel having a chemical composition and matrix structure within the scope of the present disclosure is less likely to be worn and can improve the seizure resistance performance when applied to an oil well pipe.

[Make break test]
(Test conditions)
As Examples 2-1 to 2-3, an oil well pipe made of the same stainless steel as in Examples 1-1 and 1-2 was used, and a make-break test was repeated in which fastening and disassembly were repeated. As Comparative Examples 2-1 to 2-3, the same make break test was performed using an oil well pipe made of the same stainless steel as Comparative Examples 1-1 and 1-2. Common test conditions are shown below.
-Dimensions of oil well pipe: outer diameter 177.8mm, wall thickness 14.99mm
・ Surface treatment: Both pin and box are sandblasted ・ Make-up torque: 34500N-m + 0 / 1-1360
・ Rotation speed: 2rpm
・ Make breaks: 10 times

  The lubricant used in Example 2-1 and Comparative Example 2-1 is Shell Type 3, and the lubricant used in Example 2-2 and Comparative Example 2-2 is API Modified 304-ST manufactured by BESTLIFE. In Example 2-3 and Comparative Example 2-3, a so-called environmentally friendly lubricant (SEAL GUARD manufactured by JET LUBE) was used. The environmentally friendly lubricant does not contain heavy metals and has a relatively low lubricating performance.

(Test results)
In Example 2-1, slight goling occurred on the screw bottom at the first time, but after performing the care, make break was completed up to 10 times without goling and wrinkles.

  In Example 2-2, streak-like marks were generated on the screw bottom at the first time and the second time, but care was performed, and then makeup break was completed up to 10 times without further wrinkling.

  In Example 2-3, since goling occurred in the screw portion at the first time, the make break test was stopped. However, the performance of the seal portion was maintained.

  In Comparative Example 2-1, a slight gorging and streak-like mark is generated on the screw bottom at the first time, the second time, and the fifth time, and a slight galling and deformation occurs on the screw load surface at the second time, the fourth time, and the ninth time. In each case, care was taken and the test was continued to complete 10 makeup breaks.

  In Comparative Example 2-2, streak-shaped marks are generated on the screw bottom at the first time, the second time, and the fourth time, a slight goling occurs on the screw load surface at the first time and the third time, Minor goling occurred on each surface, and deformation occurred on the screw insertion surface for the 10th time, but the test was continued each time, and 10 makeup breaks were completed.

  In Comparative Example 2-3, go-ring occurred on the entire circumference of the screw portion and the seal portion at the first time, so the make break test was stopped.

(Evaluation)
When Examples 2-1 and 2-2 are compared with Comparative Examples 2-1 and 2-2, obviously, Comparative Examples 2-1 and 2-2 have more damages. Further, both Example 2-3 and Comparative Example 2-3 stopped the make-break test after the first breakout, but in Comparative Example 2-3, the seal part was damaged, whereas the Example In 2-3, the seal portion is not damaged, and the sealing performance is maintained. Therefore, it can be seen that if the oil well pipe is made of stainless steel having a chemical composition and a matrix structure within the scope of the present disclosure, damage during fastening and dismantling can be suppressed, and seizure resistance can be ensured.
