  • Patent number: 9605781
    Abstract: A threaded tubular connection includes a female threaded portion at a first tubular component end and a male threaded portion at a second tubular component end, the female threaded portion including a female thread, at least one female sealing surface on its inner peripheral surface, and at least one female axial abutment surface, the male threaded portion including a male thread, at least one male sealing surface on its outer peripheral surface, at least one axial abutment surface, and a lip disposed between the sealing surface and an axial abutment surface located at a free end of the threaded portion distant from the thread, the male thread being made up into the female thread such that at least one male axial abutment surface is in contact with at least one female axial abutment surface, at least one male sealing surface being in interference contact with at least one corresponding female sealing surface, the portion of the lip between the sealing surface and the axial abutment surface being radially dist

  • Patent number: 9568125
    Abstract: A threaded joint for steel pipes comprising a pin (1) and a box (2). The pin has a male thread (11) and a lip (12) which comprises (i) a sealing surface (13) and (ii) a nose portion (16) provided with a shoulder surface. The box has a female thread (21), a sealing surface (23) and a shoulder surface. The shoulder surface of the pin comprises two distinct adjacent surfaces, main shoulder (14) in the inner side and sub shoulder (15) in the outer side. Correspondingly, the shoulder surface of the box comprises two distinct adjacent surfaces, main shoulder (24) in the inner side and sub shoulder (25) in the outer side. The main shoulder surfaces of the pin and box are disposed such as to prevent a radially inward deformation of the lip end, and the sub shoulder surfaces of pin and box are disposed such as to limit a radially outward deformation of the lip end.

  • Publication number: 20110241339
    Abstract: A threaded connection and a method for producing such a connection. The threaded connection includes a first and a second tubular component. The first component includes a male end provided on its outer peripheral surface with, in succession, a threaded zone, a sealing surface, and a terminal surface finishing in an abutment surface orientated radially with respect to the axis of revolution of the connection. The second component includes a female end provided on its inner peripheral surface with, in succession, a threaded zone, a sealing surface, and a recess finishing in an abutment surface orientated radially with respect to the axis of revolution of the connection. The threaded zone of the male end is made up into the threaded zone of the female end such that the sealing surfaces are in interfering contact, as are the abutment surfaces, the space between the terminal surface and the recess defining a volume at least partially filled with a filling material.
