Diahkusuma Firdaus , Pertamina Drilling Project South Sumatera,Prabumulih, South sumatera, Indonesia2Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sriwijaya University, Indralaya, South Sumatera,IndonesiaAbstract
This case study delves into the intricate details of fatigue failure observed in the drill pipe SS105 thread. Through meticulous investigation and analysis, the study aims to unravel the complexities surrounding the failure mechanism, exploring contributing factors and potential preventive measures. The findings provide valuable insights for the oil and gas industry, enhancing understanding and mitigating risks associated with drill pipe thread fatigue failure.
