1.\u00a0<\/b>Definition<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

SY\/T 0135-2000 specified the\u00a0technical requirements, testing methods, inspection rules, marking, and packaging for seamless steel casing pipes\u00a0used in petroleum and natural gas drilling and production. It primarily governed pipes manufactured within China for domestic use, establishing quality benchmarks for mechanical properties, dimensions, tolerances, testing, and performance under downhole conditions (pressure, collapse, tension).<\/p>

2. Product Scope & Applicability<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

Product Type:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Seamless steel casing pipes.<\/p>

Primary Application:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Oil and gas well drilling and completion for:<\/p>

Isolating formation zones.<\/p>

Preventing wellbore collapse.<\/p>

Providing a conduit for production tubing and downhole equipment.<\/p>

Containing wellbore pressure.<\/p>

Service Environment:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Designed to withstand downhole stresses including internal\/external pressure, axial tension, compression, collapse forces, and corrosive wellbore fluids (requiring specific material grades).<\/p>

3.Steel Grades & Material Requirements<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

SY\/T 0135-2000 defined casing grades primarily based on minimum yield strength and heat treatment:<\/p>

\u00b9 N80 could be normalized or Q&T. N80Q specifically required Q&T.<\/p>

Composition chimique :<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Specified maximum limits for Carbon (C), Manganese (Mn), Phosphorus (P), Sulfur (S), Silicon (Si), and alloying elements (e.g., Chromium (Cr), Molybdenum (Mo)) depending on the grade (especially for L80, C90, T95). Composition aimed to achieve the required mechanical properties and suitability for the intended service environment (e.g., sour service grades had stricter limits on hardness and P\/S content).<\/p>

Heat Treatment:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Mandatory for grades like N80Q, L80, C90, T95, P110 to achieve specified strength and toughness. Other grades (H40, J55, K55, N80) could be supplied in the as-rolled or normalized condition if meeting properties.<\/p>

4. Dimensions & Weight<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

Outside Diameter (OD):<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Covered a common range for casing, typically starting\u00a0from around\u00a0114.3 mm (4 \u00bd in)<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0up to\u00a0508.0 mm (20 in)<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0or larger. Specific sizes were listed in detailed tables within the standard.<\/p>

Wall Thickness (WT):<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Varied significantly based on OD and specified pipe weight\/grade. Ranged from approximately\u00a05.2 mm (0.205 in)<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0for smaller OD\u00a0light-wall pipe to over\u00a016 mm (0.630 in)<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0for larger OD heavy-wall pipe.<\/p>

Weight:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Specified as\u00a0nominal weight per unit length<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0(kg\/m or lb\/ft). Each OD\/WT combination had a designated nominal weight. Tolerances on weight were provided.<\/p>

6.Testing Requirements<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

SY\/T 0135-2000 mandated rigorous testing:<\/p>

Hydrostatic Test:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Obligatoire<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0for every pipe.<\/p>

Minimum test pressure calculated based on specified wall thickness (t), specified minimum yield strength (SMYS), and OD (D):\u00a0P = 2 * SMYS * t \/ D * F<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

F<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0= 0.5 for H40\/J55\/K55;\u00a0F<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0= 0.8 for N80\/N80Q\/L80\/C90\/T95\/P110.<\/p>

Pressure held for \u2265 5 seconds. No visible leakage permitted.<\/p>

Tensile Test:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Performed on samples representing each heat treatment lot.<\/p>

Measured Yield Strength (0.2% offset or 0.5% TE), Tensile Strength, Elongation.<\/p>

Results must meet or exceed the minimums specified for the grade (See Table above).<\/p>

Hardness Test:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Performed (usually Brinell or Rockwell) on samples from each heat treatment lot.<\/p>

Values must conform to grade-specific maximums (See Table above). Critical for sour service grades.<\/p>

Impact Test (Charpy V-Notch):<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Obligatoire<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0for grades P110, T95, C90, L80 (Types 1 & 9Cr).<\/p>

Required minimum average energy and individual values at specified temperature (often 0\u00b0C or -20\u00b0C depending on grade\/designation).<\/p>

Flattening Test:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Performed on pipe ends (or samples) from each heat treatment lot for grades H40 to K55 and N80 (non-Q&T).<\/p>

Pipe section flattened to a specified distance (H) between plates without cracking.\u00a0H = (1 + e) * t \/ (e + t\/D)<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0where\u00a0e<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0is a strain factor (e.g., 0.08 for J55\/K55).<\/p>

Drift Test:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Mandatory for\u00a0every pipe<\/b><\/strong>.<\/p>

A cylindrical mandrel of specified diameter (based on pipe ID and coupling type – API drift sizes referenced) must pass freely through the pipe under its own weight.<\/p>

Essais non destructifs (END) :<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

Contr\u00f4le par ultrasons (UT) :<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Required for all grades except H40. Covered the full body length to detect longitudinal imperfections exceeding reference standards.<\/p>

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) or Eddy Current (EC):<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Used for inspecting the pipe ends (after threading) for surface imperfections.<\/p>

Inspection visuelle :<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Every pipe examined internally and externally for surface defects exceeding allowed limits.<\/p>

Gauging:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Threads and couplings verified using API master gauges (Ring & Plug gauges) per API Spec 5B requirements referenced by the standard.<\/p>

Dimensional Inspection:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Verification of OD, WT, length, straightness, thread dimensions.<\/p>

7. Marking & Packaging<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

Pipes required permanent marking indicating: Manufacturer, SY\/T 0135-2000, Grade, Size (OD & Weight per unit length), Heat Number, Inspection Mark, and potentially length range.<\/p>

Thread protectors were mandatory for pipe ends and couplings.<\/p>

Packaging aimed to prevent damage during transport and storage.<\/p>

Conclusion & Key Consideration<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

SY\/T 0135-2000 served as a critical national standard in China, establishing comprehensive technical requirements for seamless casing pipes during its active period. It covered essential aspects from material chemistry and mechanical properties to dimensional tolerances, rigorous testing protocols, and inspection criteria.<\/p>

However, crucially, SY\/T 0135-2000 is obsolete.<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0It has been formally replaced by\u00a0SY\/T 0135-2017<\/b><\/strong>, which incorporates significant updates and aligns more closely with globally recognized API standards like API 5CT.\u00a0For any current project, specification, or procurement activity involving casing pipes intended for oil and gas service, SY\/T 0135-2017 or API 5CT (potentially with supplemental requirements) must be the referenced standards.<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Always verify the exact, applicable standard required for your specific application. Using a withdrawn standard like SY\/T 0135-2000 carries significant technical and compliance risks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
