Steel Casing Pipe API 5CT

In modern oil and gas drilling and production engineering, wellbore integrity is the fundamental principle ensuring structural safety, preventing formation fluid influx, and protecting the environment. The selection of API 5CT casing grades is pivotal, as it directly determines the well’s ability to withstand specific challenges related to depth, pressure, and corrosive media.

Octal Steel offers a comprehensive range of API 5CT-compliant casing pipes. Our scientifically graded product portfolio is engineered to precisely meet requirements ranging from standard wells to extreme service conditions. Beyond standard-strength grades like J55/K55, N80 Type 1, and P110, we provide high-performance options designed for demanding environments:

The Balance of Corrosion Resistance and Medium Strength: The L80 grade, one of the most widely used sour-service grades, has its hardness strictly controlled below HRC 23, delivering reliable resistance to Sulfide Stress Cracking (SSC) in environments containing Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S).

Combining High Strength and Corrosion Resistance: C90 and T95 grades offer higher strength than L80 while maintaining excellent SSC resistance, making them suitable for deeper, higher-pressure sour wells.

Ultra-High-Strength Support: P110 and Q125 grades are designed to provide superior collapse and internal pressure resistance for ultra-deep wells, high-pressure formations, or sections requiring extreme structural support.

Dedicated CO₂ Corrosion Solutions: In addition to standard carbon and alloy steel grades, we supply 13Cr and higher-alloy martensitic stainless steel pipes, which effectively combat CO₂-induced uniform corrosion through the formation of a dense passive film.

We recognize that each grade embodies an application of materials science. Consequently, through precise metallurgical design (e.g., employing Quenching & Tempering for N80Q to achieve a fine, uniform tempered sorbitic structure) and rigorous end-to-end quality verification, Octal Steel ensures every joint of casing delivers its promised mechanical properties and durability under complex downhole stress and chemical conditions. Choosing Octal Steel means selecting an engineering assurance rooted in a profound understanding of materials, providing a solid foundation for your asset integrity and operational efficiency.

Octal Steel provides a comprehensive selection of API 5CT steel casing and tubing pipes to meet various needs in oil exploration and production. The materials offered include carbon steel (the most commonly used), alloy steel, chrome steel, and high alloy steels. The API 5CT grades available encompass J55/K55, N80 Type 1, N80Q, L80, C90, T95, P110, and Q125, along with additional specifications for 13 Cr.

Steel Casing pipe Feature

Casing pipe section shape is a round, big diameter pipe put into the oil well, fixed by the cement, to protect other equipment which is mostly made of iron and steel. Oil wells shall be designed to bear the different strengths of external power, such as crush, explosion, stress, and chemical corruption. During the well drilling process, put casing into the well bore, it will stabilize the well bore perfectly.

Key Features of Steel Casing Pipe:

• Material: Typically made from high-strength steel, casing pipes are engineered to withstand high pressures and harsh conditions encountered during drilling operations.
• Standards: Steel casing pipes often conform to industry standards such as API 5CT, which specifies the requirements for casing and tubing used in the oil and gas industry.

Application

API 5CT casing pipe is used to support the oil and gas pipe wall and to ensure the drilling process and the post-completion wells’ normal operation. Each well depending on the depth of drilling and geological conditions, uses several layers of casing. After cementing casing to be used to go down, it is different from tubing, and drill pipe and can not be reused, a one-time consumable material. Therefore, the casing consumption accounts for over 70% of all the oil well pipe. According by usage can be divided into the sleeve pipe, surface casing, casing, and production casing.
