Titanium drill pipe have promising application prospects in ultra-deep drilling, but the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of composite drill strings are very complex. It is very important to use titanium drill pipe safely, economically, and effectively in the drilling process. In this paper, different schemes of the titanium/steel drill pipe composite drill string was designed, and the statics and dynamics characteristics of these composite drill strings were analyzed.

In addition, the experimental equipment in many cases cannot meet the actual conditions and the experimental cost is very high. These comprehensive factors cause the existing casing design to not meet the actual conditions and cause casing deformation, affecting the drilling operation in Tarim oil field.
