Oilfield pipe for Venezuela: what to specify before requesting a quote

For companies looking for drill pipe, heavy weight drill pipe, drill collars or API 5CT tubing and casing for delivery in Venezuela. XTO coordinates international sourcing from Miami with verified manufacturers and suppliers; it has no local office, own inventory or PDVSA contracts.

API 5DP vs API 5CT: not interchangeable

Drill pipe is made to API 5DP: pipe body with welded tool joints and rotary-shouldered connections such as NC31 or NC38, rotating the string while drilling. Tubing and casing follow API 5CT: they line or produce the well and use coupled threads (for example EUE, NUE or BTC) or premium connections. Length ranges (R1, R2, R3) are defined separately in each standard: a drill pipe R2 is not the same length as a tubing R2.

Drill pipe NC31 and NC38, HWDP and drill collars

On drill pipe the connection depends on the outside diameter and tool joint: NC31 is common on 2-7/8" and NC38 on 3-1/2", depending on the manufacturer's configuration. Heavy weight drill pipe (HWDP) is the transition toward drill collars, which put weight on the bit. OD, nominal weight, grade (for example E-75, X-95, G-105 or S-135) and length are confirmed against the standard and the manufacturer for each item.

New, documented material only

Only new pipe is quoted, with mill test certificates and manufacturer documentation verifiable for each item. Used, repaired or refurbished pipe is not offered, and no prices or stock are published.

  • Pipe type and standard (API 5DP or API 5CT)
