Why are drill pipe prices still declining? According to a report on the 24th, the quoted price for 62% grade imported iron ore fines has dropped to $99.4 per ton, marking a weekly decline of $10.8—a move that industry insiders believe may be nearing the market’s bottom. Meanwhile, on the 27th, traders struggled under ongoing supply allocation policies, with 63.5% grade Indian iron ore futures trading at $106–$108 per ton, falling sharply below the psychological threshold of $120 per ton. Compared to prices exceeding $200 per ton in early 2023, this represents nearly a 50% drop. Notably, recent mineral prices have now fallen to their lowest levels since late 2009. On the 28th, a water well drill pipe price analyst noted that, in the near term, further declines in prices are likely as market conditions remain volatile.

Many friends responsible for drilling rod procurement find selecting high-quality rods to be a complex task—largely because they’re unfamiliar with the materials and manufacturing processes involved.

In geological exploration work, the role of geological drill rods and connections—often referred to as "fine-tuning" components—is crucial. They enable critical operations such as applying drilling pressure, transmitting power, circulating drilling fluids, cementing, and even addressing downhole emergencies. However, these drill rods and connections demand high-quality materials, as standard ones typically cannot withstand the intense pressures generated during drilling.
