Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 11960 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum
and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 5, Casing, tubing and drill
pipe.
This first edition cancels and replaces IS0 2645:1975, which has been
technically revised.
Annexes A, B and C form an integral part of this International Standard.
Annex D is for information only.

- Should is used to indicate that a provision is not mandatory, but
recommended as good practice.
- May is used to indicate that a provision is optional.

phrase at manufacturer ’s discretion.
By agreement between purchaser and manufacturer. Such cases
are recognized by the use of the phrase by agreement between
