This document adopts T/CISA137-2021 "Seamless Steel Pipes for Trenchless Drill Pipes" published by the China Iron and Steel Association.

Introduction

Trenchless technology is an advanced and environmentally friendly method for laying, repairing, or replacing underground pipelines, conduits, and cables without creating surface trenches.

Environmentally friendly construction technology. Compared with traditional trenching, this technology has the advantages of lower overall cost, shorter construction period, less environmental impact, and no disruption to traffic.

Trenchless construction technology boasts advantages such as good ventilation, high construction safety, wide adaptability, small work site requirements, and the ability to avoid obstacles. It has evolved from a mere "alternative" to a more advanced technology.

The "alternative solution" has been transformed into the "preferred solution" for the construction, repair and management of urban underground pipe networks, becoming the mainstream approach to the development and utilization of underground space.

Trenchless tunneling is a high-tech and risky systems engineering project. Therefore, drill pipe, as a conventional and high-cost consumable material, is essential.

The consistency, stability, and safety of the materials have a significant impact on the success of construction. With the continuous innovation of trenchless technology... The new technology also places increasingly higher demands on the drilling rig's crossing capabilities, the selection and matching of drill rods and drilling tools, and the configuration of the pilot hole trajectory.

Before the formulation of national standards for seamless steel pipes for trenchless drill pipes, enterprises adopted the group standard T/CISA137-2021 "Seamless Steel Pipes for Trenchless Drill Pipes".

The demand for new trenchless technologies and processes has driven the research, development, and application of these products. Through large-scale market application testing, this group standard has proven its technical effectiveness.

The technology is mature and sufficiently necessary for industry, providing a solid foundation for its transformation into a recommended national standard, and is conducive to fully leveraging the standard's role in promoting... The role of technological progress in leading industrial upgrading. Seamless steel pipes for trenchless drill pipes
