  • the stringent requirements of deep drilling i.e., drilling for subsurface deposits of gas and petroleum, deep-well drilling for mineral and water recovery, coring for subsurface and strata analysis and the like
  • a drill string consisting of interconnected lengths or members, the ends of which are threaded for engagement with the complementary ends of the adjoining lengths.
  • drill strings from conventional l8/8 chromium-nickel stainless steel having an austenitic crystallographic, microcrystalline, grain or lattice structure.
  • drill strings composed of such alloys have generally been unsatisfactory both with respect to the requirement that the drill string be nonmagnetic and with respect to the insufficient strength of the steel which has a yield point well below the minimum permissable for use in deep-drilling systems.
  • the central zone of the drill-string length (between the coupling ends), be subjected to so-called hot/cold working at a temperature of 500 to 800 C. to a yield point up to 70 kp/mm (kiloponds per millimeter square) at 0.2 percent elongation, while the ends or threaded portions of the drill string member are hot/cold worked at this temperature to a minimum yield point (0.2 percent elongation) of 70 kp/mm'-
  • the resulting body has a surprising resistance to stress-corrosion cracking and is capable of withstanding the mechanical rigors of deep drilling while being as nonmagnetizable as the best nonmagnetic materials heretofore used in drill strings.
  • FIGURE of the drawing represents an elevational view of a drill string, partly broken away.
  • each length is provided with a threaded end portion 11 with a female thread 13 adapted to receive the male thread 14 at the other threaded end 12 of an adjoining drill-string length.
