Abstract: A threaded connection including first and second tubular components configured for exploration or operating a hydrocarbon well; the first tubular component including an external abutment, a male threaded connection portion extended by a non-threaded terminal portion defining an internal abutment at its axial end; the second tubular component including a female end defining at a free end a bearing surface forced against the external abutment, a female threaded connection portion made up with the male threaded connection portion and terminating in an internal shoulder forced against the internal abutment, an initial non-threaded portion connecting the female threaded connection portion to the internal shoulder, which includes a maximum radial interference locally forming a sealing surface located between the male threaded connection portion and the internal abutment, and located at a non-zero distance from the internal abutment, the distance being more than half of an axial distance of the terminal portion.

Abstract: A tubular drill stem component including an end element having an axis of revolution and including a threading extending about the axis of revolution, the end element configured to be connected by makeup onto a corresponding end element of another tubular component including a complementary threading, the end element including at least one outer abutment configured to come into contact with a corresponding outer abutment of the other component at an end of makeup, and wherein the outer abutment includes at least one helical surface having an axis of the helix that coincides with the axis of revolution.

Abstract: A threaded connection including first and second tubular components, each including a respective male and female end, the male end includes at least one threaded zone on its external peripheral surface and ending in a terminal surface, the female end includes at least one threaded zone on its internal peripheral surface and ending in a terminal surface, the threaded zones including, over at least a portion of their length, threads each including, viewed in longitudinal section passing through the axis of the tubular component, a thread crest, a thread root, a load flank, and a stabbing flank. Profiles of the male and female load flanks, viewed in longitudinal section passing through the axis of revolution of the connection, are a continuous curve with a convex or concave form, the profile of the male flanks being complementary to that of the female flanks over at least 70% of the continuous curve.

Abstract: A threaded tubular connection includes a first body terminated by an external abutment, and linked to a male threading prolonged by a terminal portion forming an internal abutment surface at its axial end, such that the connection includes a second body defining a bearing surface for the external abutment at one free end, and including an initial portion on its internal surface connecting the bearing surface to a female threading, made up onto the male threading, and terminating in an internal shoulder facing the internal abutment, such that the linking profile between one of the following: the external abutment, the internal abutment, the bearing surface, and/or the internal shoulder, has a profile with a variable diameter in cross section, over a length of the body which is less than the terminal portion or initial portion.
