Abstract
Compared with aluminum alloy and alloy steel, titanium alloy has higher specific strength, lower modulus of elasticity, and better toughness, fatigue performance and corrosion resistance. In terms of oil well tubing, the development of titanium alloy lags behind that of aluminum alloy and alloy steel. Aluminum alloy tubing is sensitive to pitting, fatigue corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. At the same time, it is not suitable for ultra-deep wells due to temperature limitations. Easily interact with corrosive media to cause corrosion and cracking. Titanium alloy oil well tubing is expected to solve this corrosion problem, but its corrosion resistance research is still incomplete. Therefore, it is necessary to develop titanium alloy oil well tubing with good corrosion resistance to improve corrosion fatigue (CF), fatigue during deep oil well and natural gas drilling operations. Catastrophic brittle fracture caused by hydrogen induced cracking (HIC), pitting corrosion and sulfide stress cracking (SSC). In this paper, by investigating a large number of domestic and foreign documents, the corrosion types of titanium alloy oil well pipes are analyzed, and the research status of corrosion resistance of titanium alloy oil well pipes is reviewed from three aspects: oil pipes, casings and drill pipes.
