Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of measurements of drill-pipe deformation in the slip area. Drill pipe was loaded in excess of the load at the minimum yield strength with the pipe in VARCO Type SOL and Type SDXL slips. A VARCO Type MSS solid master bushing was used with the type SDL slips and the master bushing of a VARCO KMPC unit was used with the Type SDXL slips. Measurements were made on the reduction in pipe diameter in the slip area as a function of load. Values of load which caused inelastic deformation of the pipe are determined and compared to the values previously calculated from theory.
