Abstract: A threaded connection for exploration and production of a hydrocarbon well and comprising a coupling member, a first tubular member and a second tubular member, wherein the coupling member has a coupling outer diameter, a first box part with first inner threads, and a second box part with second inner threads, the first tubular member has a first unthreaded tube part, and a first pin part with first outer threads, the second tubular member has a second unthreaded tube part, and a second pin part with second outer threads, the first inner threads and the first outer threads are configured to form a first inner primary seal at final make-up, and the second inner threads and the second outer threads are configured to form a second inner primary seal at final make-up.

Abstract: A tubular connection includes a first joint of casing having an integral box end with an internal female wedge threaded zone having wedge threads disposed on a portion of the integral box end, and a second joint of casing having an integral pin end with an external male wedge threaded zone having wedge threads disposed on a portion of the integral pin end. The external male wedge threads engage with the internal female wedge threads. The second joint of casing has an internal diameter D1, and also includes an internal annular recess with an internal diameter D2. D2 is greater than D1, and the annular recess is disposed longitudinally along an inner surface of the second joint of casing. The annular recess is positioned radially adjacent to a portion of the external male threads disposed on a lower portion of the pin end.

Abstract: A tubular connection comprising a longitudinal axis, a pin member comprising a distal pin end, a tapered pin thread having a constant pin taper angle ?1 with respect to the longitudinal axis, and a pin sealing surface located between the pin thread and the distal pin end, and a box member comprising a distal box end, a box sealing surface, and a tapered box thread having a constant box taper angle ?1 with respect to the longitudinal axis and located between the box sealing surface and the distal box end, and wherein the pin thread is configured to cooperate by make up with the box thread along a cooperating area, while having a radial thread interference between the pin thread and the box thread along at least part of the cooperating area, the pin sealing surface and the box sealing surface are configured to contact each other upon make-up in a sealing manner while forming a metal to metal seal, and the pin taper angle ?1 is larger than the box taper angle ?1.
