OCTG Casing And Tubing Inspection Service

Comprehensive Inspection Services for Oil  Casing and  Tubing

Despite strict quality control procedures at the factory, new oilfield tubing and casing may still have manufacturing process defects and be damaged during handling and transportation. Therefore, a comprehensive inspection program is essential. Regular inspection of tubing and casing not only ensures that they are fit for purpose, but also prolongs their service life and helps identify critical downhole conditions that may shorten the life of the tubing or cause costly failures.

Standards for Casing and Tubing Inspection

Inspections of oil casing and tubing are usually carried out in accordance with standards such as API RP 5A5, 5C1, 5CT, or according to specific specifications of customers and manufacturers. Common inspection methods include:
Full body ultrasonic inspection
Dry or wet special end inspection
Visual thread inspection
Body visual inspection
Full length drift test
UT wall thickness inspection
Full length electromagnetic interference (EMI) hydrostatic test
Hardness test
Weld inspection
Full length magnetic particle inspection (FLMPI)
Dye penetrant inspection OD sandblasting
Point wall thickness measurement and grade classification
Black light inspection
Hydraulic test
Compacting service
Through these inspection procedures, it can be ensured that the safety and quality of oil pipes and casings are maintained at a high standard during transportation and use.
