  1. PPI TECHNOLOGY SERVICES Modernization of Connection Performance Properties

  2. Introduction: Need Connections: 70% to 90% of Failures!

  3. Introduction: NeedPerformance, Schedule, Cost • Unknown Performance of Connections- many weights have noacceptable connector • Pipe Performance exceeding connection ratings 2. Supply Requirements: competitive bids, Multi-source for meeting schedule requirements 3. Cost: • 10-50% of the tubular cost • Failure- Financial Loss • Liability- life and property

  4. Connection Reliability Environment:Test Load Envelope/ cycling, SLE, Failure Points, Temperature Installation:Torque, RPM, Thread Compound Application Manufacturing (Drawing No./Overlay No) Foundation: Design Related(FEA, ISO 13679, Design Calcs) • Design: Test to Dimensional, Makeup, and Load Extremes • Database Provides Dimensional specifications. • Run Per Specification, within Service Load Envelope Qualification has Eliminated Failures!

  5. Methodology: Test • Connection Qualification: DEA27, 5C5, 13679 • Manufacturers test budget can exceed $2.0 MM/yr • Approx 6 major Suppliers/ 30+ connection types • Over 15 years of Modern Data with Failures • Database: Search Engine with Data Reduction • Hierarchal Relational Database per Test Class • Quick select dataset, with graphic output • Output usable in Casing Design von Mises Format

  6. Proprietary Classifications • MTC-Metal to metal seal threaded & coupled (Vam TOP, Fox, TC-II, HPC, 563, Antares MS, APEX, NK-3SB, NS-CC …) • SLH-Slim line high performance (SLX, NJO, SLIJ II, Seal-Lock SF, ULT…) • IFJ-Integral flush joint (STL, FJL, 511 …) • SPT-Semi Premium Thread seal (Big Omega, Boss...)

  7. Connection Test Data • Service Companies commit over $6MM annually to connection testing; $40MM total/ 750 tests • Testing: ISO13679, DEA27, API 5C5, User Specification, Product Line qualification, CRA • Robust: Service Load Envelope, Test Load Envelope, Cycling, Temperature, Failure, Makeup • Data is critically reviewed to delineate Class 4 Qualification test from Class 1 demonstration

  8. Connection Test Data:Higher Level Results High Level Test Data: Overview of test vs. Product Tested

  9. Connection Test DataDetailed Graphical Results Specimen Test Data: Define Service Load Envelope

  10. Project Cost: 1. Acquire test reports 4-8 hr/supplier Feb-March 2. Coordinate Software 20 hr Feb-August 3. Coordinate Suppliers 8 hr/supplier Feb-April 4. Review/ interpret data 4 hrs/report Feb-July 5. Request additional data 4-8 hr/product March-July 6. QC data/ supplier review 8 hrs/ product April-Aug 7. Finalize data presentation 8 hrs/participant May-Sept

  11. Project Benefits Short Term: • Profit from $40 MM Testing performed over 15+ years • Competitive Bid, Competitive Delivery • Save Time: One Stop for Objective Connection Data • Address Deepwater, Modern Performance Properties Long Term: • Network, Leverage, and Direct $6+MM Product Development Effort • Upgrade Casing Design Program: Include Connectors • Lower Procurement Cost/ Reduced Trouble Time

  12. Conclusion: Capture Learnings Highly Leveraged Project Cost Price Sensitive Product: 10% to 50% tubular cost Primary Cause of Failure Cost: Savings from a fraction of a single order 9-5/8, 53.5# @ $1000/ton, Connection cost: 50% tubular reduced to 25% tubular: Equivalent to 100 joints
