Oilfield

The oil and gas industry is the most commonly used industry for drill pipes, and it is also the initial use of drill pipes. E&M initially primarily provided services to oil and gas drilling contractors and drill pipe leasing companies. Compared to other industries that use drill pipes, oil and gas drilling typically has the toughest working conditions. This is mainly due to the extreme depth of oil wells and the extreme conditions on Earth at these depths. For example, some oil and gas drill strings exceed 30000 feet in length. The oil and gas pipeline industry also uses drill collars, heavy-duty drill rods, stabilizers, and rotary joints.
