We've worked in China for more than 12 years, and it makes us proud to align with Timken to better serve our customers."
Julong PetroMaterials manufactures and sells high-quality, premium products for oil development and is one of the largest drilling tool manufacturers and distributors for China. A drill collar is the heavy tubular connector between a drill pipe and a drill bit.
"Drill collars do the dirty work in a drill string where the environments are really harsh and few mills are able to produce these long tubes needed for this application. We were able to tap into our expertise in manufacturing and materials science to create a cost-effective, high-quality solution for Julong," said Jeff Hoerr, director of international alloy steel sales and marketing for Timken in China. "Our goal is to improve our customers' performance, and we're pleased to share in that success with Julong."
