Geo Drill Pipe

Harsh conditions in geothermal drilling applications require advanced drilling tubulars. As the world leader in premium drill stem products, we offer innovative drilling solutions for the most challenging Geothermal Drilling applications. Our custom engineered products include drill pipe, heavy weight drill pipe, drill collars and accessories. We have advanced R&D and fully integrated manufacturing with facilities in the United States, Mexico, China and the Singapore.

GP GEO™ drill pipe provides superior technical performance and service life, exceeding current industry standards.

Our products include:

• Proprietary upset designs to ensure stronger than the pipe weld strength in tension
• Connections designed with minimized outside diameters (OD) and maximized inside diameters (ID) to allow largest possible pipe sizes in a given hole size.
• An array of high-performance connections providing extended torque capabilities and reducing the chance of twist-offs.
• Sour service grades to allow for safer drilling in environments that have H2S present.
• Thick and robust tubes (95% Remaining Body Wall minimum) to maximize buckling resistance and allow for more tube wear, prolonging service life.
• Tuboscope TK™ coatings have historically been used for general corrosion and abrasion protection of tubular assets in oil and gas as well as geothermal applications. To compliment the traditional TK family of drill string products, TK-Drakōn has been developed to provide thermal insulation in addition to the traditional corrosion and abrasion properties. This technology allows for greater protection of the drill string ID while also, and most importantly, protecting necessary downhole electronic systems from damage and subsequent replacement. Heavier walled drill pipe to enhance service life in cases when temperatures exceed internal plastic coating capabilities and will be exposed to corrosive chemicals.

SmoothEdge™ tool joints and hardbanding solutions prolong asset life

To help protect your pipe from excessive wear during running and extend the service life of your tool joints, hardbanding can be applied on the tool joint box section, box taper or tool joint pin section.

Our SmoothEdge tool joints provide a proprietary sacrificial wear pad added to the outer pin and box for the installation of more prominent hardbanding.

Selecting the right Geo drill pipe configuration for your project

Standard API connections have limitations in terms of torque capacity and service life, especially in highly deviated drilling in hot environment. When this occurs, drillers turn to double shoulder connections that offer higher torque as well as improved operating service life. The GP GEO product line offers a full gamut of double shoulder connections, some with thread designs compatible with standard API connections, providing full interchangeability with API drill pipe and accessories.
