3 / 8 '' OD x 0.065 '' WT Cold Drawn Tube in Coils Hydraulic Control Line for Oil and Gas Wells

Meilong Tube supplies a whole range of hydraulic control line products to the oil and gas sector, and it’s one of our most important markets. You’ll find our high performance hydraulic line tubes successfully used in some of the most aggressive subsea and downhole conditions thanks to our proven track record in meeting the strict quality requirements of the oil, gas and geothermal energy industries.

Improving technology has extended the range of ways in which oil and gas fields can be exploited, and increasingly projects require the use of long, continuous lengths of stainless steel control lines. These are employed in a variety of applications including hydraulic controls, instrumentation, chemical injection, umbilicals and flowline control. Meilong Tube supplies products for all of these applications, and more, lowering operating costs and improved recovery methods for our customers.

Thanks to advances in tubular control line technologies, it is now cheaper and easier to connect downhole valves and chemical injection systems with remote and satellite wells, for both fixed and floating central platforms. We offer coiled tubing for control lines in stainless steel and nickel alloys.

Testing Abilities for Quality of Hydraulic Control Line

We monitor product quality through a rigorous inspection and testing process conducted by our team of highly qualified professionals. The extensive training and experience of Meilong Tube members includes:

Hydraulic Control Line Process and Packing

Seamless: pierced, redrawn, annealed (multi-pass circulation process)

Welded: longitudinally welded (by TIG or Laser beam), redrawn, annealed (multi-pass circulation process)

Packing: Tubing is level wound coiled on the metal / wooden drums or spools.

All drums or spools are packed in wooden crates for easy logistic operation.

Meilong Tube manufactures high quality seamless and redrawn, seam-welded and redrawn coiled tubing which are made from corrosion-resistant austenitic, duplex, super duplex stainless steel and nickel alloy grades. 100% of products are used as hydraulic power control lines, chemical injection lines, alloy tubing in umbilicals and instrumentation tubing for the exploitation engineering in the upstream oil and gas industry.

Coiled tubing is available in sizes arrange from outer diameter 0.125 inch (3.175 millimeters) to 1 inch (25.4 millimeters). Wall thickness is up to 0.083 inch (2.108 millimeters). Lengths up to 65600 feet (20,000 meters) are available for cost-effective umbilical manufacturing. More sizes within the scope can be customized to be produced and delivered for meeting your special requirements.

As more oil and gas extractions move into deeper and harsher waters where extreme offshore environments demand extreme safety, our work is to help you use the “right” corrosion resistant material for coiled umbilical tubing to improve the safety and reliability of your work. This is the power for driving our innovations and continuous development.

Now Meilong Tube is devoting its capability to bring global customers most cost-effective tubing products through ensuring a comprehensive supply guarantee regarding the complete value-added chain in tubing production and is herewith the basis for the high performance in products and customer satisfaction.
