  • Publication number: 20070257486
    Abstract: A radially expandable tubular connection and methods for expansion related thereto are disclosed. In an embodiment, a radially expandable tubular connection includes a radially-expandable box member. The radially-expandable box member includes an internal thread, and a non-threaded internal area including a groove providing a mechanical means for securing position of an elastomeric seal ring disposed in the groove. The radially expandable tubular connection further includes a radially-expandable pin member. The radially-expandable pin member includes an external thread for threadably engaging the internal thread. In addition, the radially-expandable pin member includes a non-threaded external seal surface carried by an elongated pin nose for engaging the elastomeric seal ring in a sealable manner.
