Abstract: A stainless steel for oil wells which has excellent high-temperature corrosion resistance and can stably obtain a strength of not less than 758 MPa is provided. The stainless steel for oil wells contains, by masse, C: not more than 0.05%, Si: not more than 1.0%, Mn: 0.01 to 1.0%, P: not more than 0.05%, S: less than 0.002%, Cr: 16 to 18%, Mo: 1.8 to 3%, Cu: 1.0 to 3.5%, Ni: 3.0 to 5.5%, Co: 0.01 to 1.0%, Al: 0.001 to 0.1%, O: not more than 0.05%, and N: not more than 0.05%, the balance being Fe and impurities, and satisfies Formulas (1) and (2): Cr+4Ni+3Mo+2Cu?44??(1) Cr+3Ni+4Mo+2Cu/3?46??(2) where each symbol of element in Formulas (1) and (2) is substituted by the content (mass %) of a corresponding element.

Abstract: To provide an oil-well steel pipe having excellent SSC resistance. The oil-well steel pipe according to the present invention contains, by mass percent, C: 0.15 to 0.35%, Si: 0.1 to 0.75%, Mn: 0.1 to 1.0%, Cr: 0.1 to 1.7%, Mo: 0.1 to 1.2%, Ti: 0.01 to 0.05%, Nb: 0.010 to 0.030%, Al: 0.01 to 0.1%, P: at most 0.03%, S: at most 0.01%, N: at most 0.007%, and O: at most 0.01%, the balance being Fe and impurities. The Ti content and the Nb content in a residue obtained by bromine-methanol extraction satisfy equation (1): 100×[Nb]/([Ti]+[Nb])?27.5??(1) where the Ti content (mass %) and the Nb content (mass %) in the residue are substituted for [Ti] and [Nb].

Abstract: In quenching, where a heated steel pipe (2) is immersed in a water bath (3) in parallel with water surface for cooling a pipe outer surface, and cooling water is injected from an axial center nozzle (8) into one end of pipe for cooling a pipe inner surface, thereby rapidly cooling the entire pipe surface, reduction of strength difference along a length of the quenched pipe becomes possible by moving the nozzle (8) following the motion of the pipe axis (2), and starting injecting the water from the nozzle (8) so as for the water to reach the other pipe end at the time of the immersion of the entire circumference of the pipe outer surface. An opening (3a) preferably faces the nozzle (8) to remove the water, and the flow velocity is preferably set to 23 m/sec or more for better water flow inside the pipe (2).
