Qualified for complex operations The TenarisHydril BlueDock connector design is based on stateoftheart techniques in numerical simulation as well as Tenaris s extensive knowledge in premium connection technology Its design relies on the extensively tested TenarisHydril Blue Series and is fully optimized by finite element analysis (FEA) It is also verified through an extensive fullscale testing program (FST) performed in internal and external laboratories on several sizes of the product family Example of TLE for SERIES A test on BlueDock 90 MTM '' X 115'' WT API 5L X70, as part of the API RP 5C5 CAL I Qualification The BlueDock connector has undergone sealability tests at 95% pipe body VME based on the forthcoming revision of the API RP 5C5 standard The gas sealability of surface casings is tested according to the forthcoming revision of the API RP 5C5 CAL I protocol The water sealability and structural capacity of conductor casings are tested according to the Series B of the same standard Tenaris assesses carefully the fatigue performance of threaded connectors in order to provide proper data for the design stage of the well The fatigue resistance of the BlueDock connector is expressed then, through an SN curve obtained from full scale resonant fatigue tests at Tenaris own and external labs The company performs a fatigue testing program for its connectors, in which the product is subjected to different load levels (stress range) Statistical analysis of the obtained data is performed to calculate a stress factor (SF) from the DNV C0 B1 Design curve used as reference A special option manufactured with stateoftheart technologies to optimize fatigue service, supported by extensive fullscale testing is also available Stress Factor DNV C0 B1 Design TenarisHydril BlueDock Mean Curve TenarisHydril BlueDock 975% Survival Curve Example of TLE for SERIES B test ON BlueDock 70 ELS 0'' X 1000'' WT API 5L X65, IN ACCORDANCE WITH API RP 5C5 STANDARD Example of SN curve for an specific connector size To validate the connector design in the most challenging deepwater environments today, Tenaris also conducted offshore rig tests in partnership with major oil and gas companies Furthermore, BlueDock connectors have already been installed offshore by several major oil and gas operators Stress Range Number of Cycles 8
Robust connection design TEAD PROFILE The BlueDock connector has a fully reliable structural capacity given by the cresttoroot hooked thread type Its fast thread taper and high stabbing flank angle ensure deep and easy stabbing, while its multiple thread start provides fast and reliable makeup The BlueDock connector offers excellent galling resistance and high fatigue performance, with no stress risers on flank to root transitions The low TPI design, which offers robust threads, minimizes the crossthreading risk The final makeup position is achieved with /4 of a turn (1/ to handtight + 1/4 powertight) HOOK EFFECT CREST TO ROOT CONTACT Double shoulder The connector's double shoulder configuration ensures more than % pipe body compression efficiency and high overtorque capacity, as well as improved fatigue life performance The internal shoulder s negative angle contributes to seal energization Its stress relaxation groove provides improved fatigue performance The external shoulder has a visual reference to ensure complete and aligned makeup It is dimensioned to minimize handling damages EXTERNAL SHOULDER PIN INTERNAL SHOULDER BOX Dope pockets The BlueDock connector comes with double dope pockets specially designed to allocate the excess of thread compounds while maintaining the connector s efficiency and performance PIN DOPE POCKETS The dope pockets profiles, based on TenarisHydril Blue technology, are designed to provide optimized fatigue life DOPE POCKETS BOX 9PREMIUM TenarisHydril CONNECTIONSBLUEDOCK
Advanced sealing options Primary metaltometal SEAL 18" TO 4" The BlueDock connector has a primary metaltometal seal with a spheretocone geometry based on the Blue Series technology, that provides a smooth seal sliding and a reliable parabolic contact pressure profile It offers excellent galling resistance and it has an extremely low sensitivity to axial displacement, maintaining the sealability under extreme combined loads Primary elastomeric SEAL 18" TO 4" For applications that do not require MTM sealability, the BlueDock connector has a primary seal option of elastomeric ring that covers the whole product size range The finite element analysis (FEA) technique was applied to optimize the elastomeric seal groove dimensioning and positioning The safe ORing retention during handling, cleaning and makeandbreak operations is ensured by the dovetailed groove profile The box ORing is preinstalled at the mill Optional SEA WATER EXCLUSION SEAL 18" TO 4" Tenaris has developed an elastomeric external seal option for offshore applications The external seal is a barrier that prevents sea water from entering the thread and affecting the connector s fatigue performance As in the primary elastomeric seal, finite element analysis (FEA) was used to optimize the seal design The pin ORing is preinstalled at the mill 10
Secure installation Selfalignment guides The internal and external guides provide selfalignment of the pin and box members during stabbing, avoiding the possibility of crossthreading Antirotational keys Each BlueDock connector can come with up to three antirotational keys This safe and easytooperate device provides extra assurance against accidental backoffs increasing significantly the breakout torque This increment was verified by adhoc testing, reaching approximately a value of 00% of applied makeup torque for surface casing and 00% for conductor casing sizes in the case of two antirotational keys installed The antirotational keys are preinstalled at Tenaris mills and housed, bolted and retained into a groove, to prevent losing parts This design of antirotational keys shows no sensitivity to axial loads or the typical external shoulder opening under high tensile loads This device was designed to operate with multiple activations without the need to use special tools Lifting Internal flush The connector s integral lifting shoulder on the box side is compatible with sidedoor and singlejoint elevators PREMIUM CONNECTIONS BLUEDOCK TenarisHydril 11
