Like the API steel pipe, the high frequency welding of seamless steel pipes uses the skin effect of alternating current and adjacent effect. After rolling forming, the steel gets the formation of a cross section of broken circular tube billet. There is a set of rotating impedance in the middle of the tube billet inside near the induction coil. And the electromagnetic induction loop is around impedance and tube billet. Under the action of skin effect and the adjacent effect of tube, the powerful and concentrated heat effect is produced at the edge. This can make the welding edge rapidly heated to the temperature required by roller extrusion. Welding metal of the API steel pipes of the molten state will realize the joint between the crystals. After cooling it can form a firm butt weld.

There are two main types of weld physical seamless processing methods: weld local processing method and the overall heat treatment method. Weld local processing method is more suitable for large diameter steel pipe for two reasons: weld local heating can significantly save energy; when welded steel pipe diameter is larger, the weld tracking is easier. Because there are hardening phenomena in the weld heat affected zone and low mechanical properties, the first thing we should consider for is the weld local processing method. This kind of method is to use medium frequency induction heating equipment to weld heat affected zone to 927 degrees Celsius, and then air cooling below 538 degrees Celsius. Finally add water if necessary.

For small diameter API steel pipes, we can adopt the method of medium frequency induction or flame heating tube billet heated to 900 degrees Celsius, then make the air cooling or cooling in the cooling chamber with a controlled atmosphere. The welded steel pipe and black steel pipe are also available. Through the weld heat treatment, the welded pipe is physical seamlessly to eliminate stress, homogenization and refine the organization, improving comprehensive mechanical properties of welding heat affected zone. Seamless pipe welding technology needs good control during welding and it should ensure the welding quality of steel pipe quality and function of the subject. It can exert the important role and value in use.

The temperature of the heating temperature of the subcritical quenching should be chosen between 740 degrees and 810 degrees. If choose the heating temperature of the subcritical quenching is 780 degrees, the holding tome of the quenching as well as heating should be 15 minutes. The temper temperature after quenching is chosen as 630 degrees, the heating as well as holding time of tempering should be chosen as 50 minutes. The subcritical quenching is heated between α+γ two phase regions, and carry out quenching under the condition of the non-dissolution ferrite in reserve parts, which ensure the higher strength and improve the toughness at the same time.

In addition, the general temperature of the low temperature harden by quenching is low, which reduces the internal stress of the hardening by quenching, so as to reduce the deformation of the quenching. And then it makes sure the successful operation of the production of the heat treatment. And at the same time, it offer excellent raw materials to the subsequent lathe thread process. The API steel pipe is a kind of tube stock with large diameter. The welded steel pipe and black steel pipe are also available. Its function is to fix the wall of a well or hole of a well of the oil well and natural gas well. The casting pipe is going to insert into the hole of a well and fix through the cement to avoid the slumping of the well and the separation of the well and the rock stratum, ensuring the circular flow of the hydrocarbon exploration, which is beneficial to drilling as well as exploiting.

In addition, use API steel pipe with different styles in the middle of the oil exploitation. Surface oil casting is to protect the well drilling and prevent it from the pollution of the shallow water layer as well as the shallow gas layer. And its another function is to support wellhead equipment and maintain the weight of other layers of the API steel pipe. Protection string is to separate pressure of different layers so as to protect the normal circulation of the quota of the drilling fluid as well as protect production casting. And it also beneficial to installing anti-burst device, leakage proof device as well as tail pipe inside of the drilling well. As for the oil string casting, its function is to lead out natural gas and oil from the store layer under the earth’s surface to protect well drilling and layer the drilling mud. In the middle of producing API steel pipe, it is general that the outer diameter is 114 millimeters to 508 millimeters.
