Pipes built to API's different specifications work particularly well in the oil and petroleum industry.
Specifications such as API 5B, API 5D, API 5L and API 5CT are mainly used in these industries. Pipes produced to API 5D are intended for drilling and production purposes, while API 5B covers different aspects such as threading, gauging and inspection of tubing, casing and line pipe threads. Therefore, it is easy to differentiate between API 5D and API 5B pipelines.
