1 Nonmagnetic stainless steels Amagnit

2 02 OUR TECHNOLOGY AND EXPERTISE IN OIL AND GAS FIELD APPLICATIONS Our technology and expertise in oil and gas field applications The technology in the oil and gas exploration is continuously developing. Using the directional drilling, new oil and gas deposits - up to depths of 5 km and distances of 10 km away from the rig - can be tapped. This has the advantage that different deposits can be reached with only one rig. With the help of extremely sensitive measurement tools near the drill bit, the current position of the drill bit can be determined. The measuring methods of the tools can be distinguished in two methods:» MWD (Measuring While Drilling)» LWD (Logging While Drilling) MWDs are using the magnetic field of the earth to define the three-dimensional-position of the drilling tool as well as the drilling direction, whereas LWDs determine information about the geological structure of the formation. To explore the resources deep under the seabed, steels with excellent corrosion resistance and strength, especially for the drill string components e.g. drill collars, internals and connections, are required. The stainless steels Amagnit of Deutsche Edelstahlwerke fulfil the increasing requirements of the oil and gas industry. Due to their special properties, such as the high corrosion resistance against aggressive media, the high strength and the low relative magnetic permeability, these stainless steels are the best choice for components of MWDs and LWDs as well as drill collars. Furthermore, the magnetic field of the earth remains uninfluenced by the use of Amagnit. Hereby precise measurements for determining the position of the drill bit are possible.

3 AMAGNIT 03 High performance nonmagnetic steels with defined mechanical, physical and chemical properties Amagnit The nonmagnetic stainless steels Amagnit are based upon a combination of high chromium, manganese, molybdenum and nitrogen content plus small amounts of nickel to ensure the stable austenitic microstructure. A homogeneous austenitic microstructure is the prerequisite for guaranteeing the specific magnetic permeability of µ r < All our Amagnit grades pass through special metallurgical processes, selective temperature control throughout the whole production as well as a demanding hot-cold forming process. Depending on existing stresses and application in the oil and gas exploration, Deutsche Edelstahlwerke supplies the nonmagnetic stainless steels:» Amagnit 501» Amagnit 509» Amagnit 601 For simple drill collars, heavy weights, flex collars and stabilisers with a low requirement on the strength level, according to AP 7, Amagnit 501 can be used. For higher demands on corrosion resistance and strength, like the housings of the MWDs and MWD/LWDs itselves, we recommend the use of Amagnit 601. Due to the higher nitrogen content and work hardening Amagnit 601 offers both higher ultimate tensile strength (> 150 ksi) and corrosion resistance. Through specific and application-oriented development Deutsche Edelstahlwerke broadened its portfolio of nonmagnetic stainless steels with Amagnit 509. Due to a richer chemistry than Amagnit 501, Amagnit 509 performs better in more aggressive media. As a benefit of the modified chemical composition Amagnit 509 is able to reach the strength level of Amagnit 601. Seabed Oil deposit CONSTRUCTION OF DRILLING TOOLS IN THE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION 1.

Standards and designations Amagnit 601 is a non-standard special steel from Deutsche Edelstahlwerke GmbH. Special Properties Nonmagnetic alloy µ r < 1.01 in combination with high strength and high corrosion resistance. Corrosion Resistance (PREN 1 = ) Amagnit 601 has an excellent resistance against stress corrosion cracking as far as tensile stresses are lower than 0.5 x yield strength. The pitting corrosion potential is far better than the potential of Amagnit 501. Although the PREN values of Amagnit 509 and 601 are in the same approximate range, Amagnit 601 is performing better with regard to pitting corrosion due to higher molybdenum content. 1 PREN: Pitting resistance equivalent number %Cr + 3.3x %Mo + 16x %N PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Density in kg/dm 3 at» 20 C 7.79 Young s modulus in GPa at» 20 C Thermal conductivity in W/(m K) at» 20 C» 100 C» 200 C» 300 C Thermal expansion coefficient in 10-6 K -1» 20 C 100 C» 20 C 200 C» 20 C 300 C Specific heat capacity in kj/(kg K) at» 20 C» 100 C» 200 C» 300 C Density in Lb/in 3 at» 68 F Young s modulus in ksi at» 68 F 28.5 x 10 3 Thermal conductivity in BTU in/(h ft 2 F) at» 68 F» 212 F» 392 F» 572 F Thermal expansion coefficient in 10-6 F -1» 68 F F» 68 F F» 68 F F Specific heat capacity in BTU/(Lb F) at» 68 F» 212 F» 392 F» 572 F

Through a controlled forging process on a rotary hammer forging machine a uniform strain distribution over the entire circumference is achieved. Due to a rapid quenching after the pre-forging process the Amagnit steels are practically free of undesirably precipitations. This has an extremely positive effect on different types of corrosion.
