The steel pipe for oil well industry is facing a grand opportunity in regions where shale oil and gas exploration thrives. Therefore, Baosteel Roll attended Shale play tubulars meeting held by SBB in Pittersburg, USA from July 23 to 24, 2011, discussing the technical developing orientation of retained mandrel for rolling seamless pipe with global manufacturing leaders of seamless pipe.
The emergence of new drilling technology makes exploration of natural gas for commercial purpose possible. It leads to a profit blowout in the market of oil and gas pipe. Undoubtedly, the new drilling techology stands for the demand for new type pipe product. It stimulates numerous manufacturer and distributor of oil and gas pipe to introduce new product into the market.
In face of the vigorous demand in steel pipe market, Baosteel Roll introduced the latest production technology of mandrel to those participating pipe dealers. New technical renovation has been achieved in alloy element control, purity and inclusion control, carbide distribution, and surface treatment on mandrel. This meeting enables more seamless pipe producer to acknowledge Baosteel Roll’s persistent strict demand to the improvement in quality.
