The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO te
25、chnical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates close
26、ly with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft
27、 International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this docume
28、nt may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 13678 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 5, C
29、asing, tubing and drill pipe. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 13678:2000), which has been technically revised. It is the intent of ISO/TC 67 that the first and second editions of ISO 13678 both be applicable, at the option of the purchaser, for a period of six months
30、from the first day of the calendar quarter immediately following the date of publication of this second edition, after which period the first edition will no longer be applicable. v Introduction This International Standard is based on API RP 5A3 6, second edition, July 2003, with errata and inclusio
31、n of all clauses of API RP 7A11)9, first edition, November 1992, incorporated into Annex I. This International Standard specifies requirements and gives recommendations for the manufacture, testing and selection of thread compounds for use on casing, tubing, line pipe and drill stem elements based o
32、n the current industry consensus of good engineering practice. It is intended that the words casing and tubing apply to the service application, rather than to the diameter of the pipe. The performance requirements of thread compounds for use with casing, tubing, line pipe, premium connections and r
33、otary shouldered connections include: consistent frictional properties that allow both proper and uniform connection engagement; adequate lubrication properties to resist galling or damage of connection contact surfaces during make-up and breakout; adequate sealing properties for thread-type seal co
34、nnections and/or not inhibiting the sealing properties of non-thread sealing connections (e.g. metal-to-metal seals, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seals, etc.) depending upon service requirements; physical and chemical stability both in service and in expected compound storage conditions; propertie
35、s that allow effective application to the connection contact surfaces in expected service conditions and environment. In addition, compounds for rotary shouldered connections provide: lubrication of the connection members during make-up to achieve the proper axial bearing stress; an effective seal b
36、etween connection shoulders to prevent wash-out by drilling fluids; more uniform distribution of circumferential bearing stress if shoulders are not parallel; resistance to additional make-up down hole. When evaluating the suitability of a thread compound, the user can define the service conditions
37、and then consider field trials and field service experience in addition to laboratory test results. Appropriate supplementary tests can be utilized for specific applications which are not evaluated by the tests herein. The user and manufacturer are encouraged to discuss service applications and limi
38、tations of the compound being considered. Representatives of users and/or other third party personnel are encouraged to monitor tests wherever possible. Interpolation and extrapolation of test results to other products, even of similar chemical composition, is not recommended. Testing in compliance
39、with this International Standard does not in and of itself ensure adequate thread compound/connection system performance in field service. The user has the responsibility of evaluating the results obtained from the recommended procedures and test protocols and determining whether the thread compound
40、/connection system in question meets the anticipated requirements of that particular field service application. 1) Obsolete. Incorporated into this International Standard. API RP 5A31 Petroleum and natural gas industries Evaluation and testing of thread compounds for use with casing, tubing, line pi
41、pe and drill stem elements 1 Scope This International Standard provides requirements, recommendations and methods for the testing of thread compounds intended for use on threaded casing, tubing, and line pipe connections; and for thread compounds intended for use on rotary shouldered connections. Th
42、e tests outlined are used to evaluate the critical performance properties and physical and chemical characteristics of thread compounds under laboratory conditions. These test methods are primarily intended for thread compounds formulated with a lubricating base grease and are not applicable to some
43、 materials used for lubricating and/or sealing thread connections. It is recognized that many areas can have environmental requirements for products of this type. This International Standard does not include requirements for environmental compliance. It is the responsibility of the end user to inves
44、tigate these requirements and to select, use and dispose of the thread compounds and related waste materials accordingly. 2 Conformance 2.1 Dual citing of normative references In the interests of world-wide application of this International Standard, Technical Committee ISO/TC 67 has decided, after
45、detailed technical analysis, that certain of the normative documents listed in Clause 3 and prepared by ISO/TC 67 or another ISO Technical Committee are interchangeable in the context of the relevant requirement with the relevant document prepared by the American Petroleum Institute (API), the Ameri
46、can Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These latter documents are cited in the running text following the ISO reference and preceded by “or”, for example “ISO XXXX or API YYYY”. Application of an alternative normative document cited in this
47、 manner will lead to technical results different from the use of the preceding ISO reference. However, both results are acceptable and these documents are thus considered interchangeable in practice. 2.2 Units of measurement In this International Standard, data are expressed in both the Internationa
48、l System (SI) of units and the United States Customary (USC) system of units. For a specific order item, it is intended that only one system of units be used, without combining data expressed in the other system. Products manufactured to specifications expressed in either of these unit systems shall
49、 be considered equivalent and totally interchangeable. Consequently, compliance with the requirements of this International Standard as expressed in one system provides compliance with requirements expressed in the other system. For data expressed in the SI system, a comma is used as the decimal separator and a space as the thousands separator. For data expressed in the USC system, a dot (on the line) is used as the decimal separator and a space as the thousands separator. In the text, data in SI units are followed by data in USC units in parentheses. 2 API Recomm
