OCTG Tubing
OCTG tubing is inserted inside the wellbore through the casing pipe, which assists in bringing fluids like oil, gas, or water, from the production zone to the surface. The tubing string protects the casing from the wear and tear of corrosive fluids, sand, etc. It can also be replaced in case it gets damaged, which is not the case with OCTG casing. Normally OCTG tubing is sized at around 2-â…œ” to 4-½” OD, but larger offshore wells can sometimes use larger sizes around 5-½” to 7”.
This tubing provides wells with a variety of benefits.
Fluid Transport
As previously stated, tubing provides a method of fluid extraction and allows them to flow from the reservoir to the surface facilities for processing and storage.
Smaller Outer Diameter
Tubing pipes usually have a smaller outer diameter (OD) than casing pipes, which allows for more efficient flow rates and easier installation.
Pressure Resistance
OCTG tubing is designed to withstand high pressure so fluid transport can be carried out safely and reliably.
Production Optimization
Tubing design and materials can be optimized for specific production conditions, such as location or type of fluid flow, to improve the fluid extraction efficiency and reduce wear on the equipment.
