Drill Pipe and Down-Hole-Assembly Inspection The more you're pressured to maximize productivity, the more you push the most expensive item in your operation - your drill string - to its limit. Unfortunately, the harder you push it, the more stress you apply to each length of drill pipe. Bending stresses, rotational stresses, tensional stresses and compressional stresses can all build up during the punishing drilling process, resulting in microscopic fatigue cracks. Unless these tiny cracks are detected by a thorough inspection, they propagate - accelerated by stress concentrators like corrosion pitting, mashes and dents - until they cause a washout and the premature failure of your entire drill string. Which can mean extensive downtime from tripping and fishing. Or even loss of the entire well. That's why it pays to perform routine inspections as part of a preventive maintenance program. Investing in TIS’s Advanced Real Time Inspection Service (ARTIS). more than pays for itself, even if it helps you avoid just one drill string failure. Simply because the consequences of a failure downhole are so costly.
