Specification
API 5CT is a standard specification for casing and tubing used in the oil and gas industry. Casing and tubing are both used to line the walls of a wellbore and provide structural support for the well.
Casing is the pipe that runs from the surface of the well to the bottom, and it serves to protect the wellbore from collapse and prevent fluid migration. It is also used to maintain well control and prevent blowouts.
Tubing, on the other hand, is placed inside the casing and is used to transport oil and gas from the well to the surface. It also serves as a conduit for injecting fluids into the well, such as water or chemicals.
API 5CT casing pipe specifies the technical delivery conditions, including material, chemical composition, mechanical properties, dimensions, and thread types. The specification covers several grades of steel, including J55, K55, N80, L80, C90, T95, P110, and Q125.
Casing and tubing are critical components in the oil and gas industry, and they must meet stringent requirements to ensure safe and reliable operations. API 5CT sets these standards, providing a framework for manufacturers and users to ensure that casing and tubing meet the necessary criteria for use in the field.
