Structural Optimization of a Circular Symmetric Threaded Connection System Based on the Effect of the Upper Stabbing Flank Corner Radius.

In order to boost shale gas drilling efficiency, oil and gas exploration and drilling distances have risen along with the number of horizontal definitions and directions. As a result, the joints of oil wells and core gas pipes are under continual stress and compression, internal and external pressures, and extreme bending stresses. This will negatively impact the drilling system's sustainability and the performance requirements are therefore reinforced. Good thread design is crucial because premium threaded connections are typically employed in joints, and the construction of reliable premium connections to external limitations is closely related to the choice of pertinent parameters as optimal values. In this article, new premium connection systems will be created and constructed that can show good vibration and durability under such stressful conditions. The amount of von Mises stress that is received from the threaded connection depends on how each parameter is changed. In particular, the values of the "upper stabbing flank corner radius" were used to examine the von Mises stress variations in the entire structure. An optimized design for the premium connection system is proposed with the best value of upper stabbing flank corner radius according to minimized stress on the teeth of the premium connection against compressive forces. The study's findings suggest that it is feasible to create a premium connection that can lower stress following the genuine demand of the industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
