Abstract Titanium alloy has become a promising candidate material for oil country tubular goods(OCTG) and offshore components in rigorous service environment, owing to its high specific strength, low density, low elastic modulus, excellent toughness,fatigue and corrosion resistance. Numerous researchers at home and abroad have carried out extensive researches on titanium alloys used for oil and gas exploration, including the feasibility of titanium alloy for oil country tubular goods, the processing technical of titanium alloy pipes, the performance evaluation of titanium alloy in laboratory and the field application. Unfortunately, there exist quite harsh environment for oil and gas exploration in China. The underground oil well pipes not only confronted with challenges of high temperature and high pressure, but also suffered from impacts by hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, high concentration saline/completion fluid, elemental sulfur and strong acid. Consequently, the requirement of oil country tubular goods in China exceeds the general stan-dard of other countries. Besides, titanium alloy is a general term for a family of metal whose titanium content is over 50%, and there are 76 kinds of titanium alloy with various components listed in national standard of China. Most of these standardized titanium alloys are applied in aerospace, petrochemical refining, biomedicine, shipping and marine engineering, whereas, there is huge difference in application environments of the above mentioned fields and oil & gas exploration, whether these titanium alloys can be employed for oil and gas exploration remains unexplained. Moreover, the lack of research results and application experiences of titanium alloy OCTG in service of harsh environment with H2S, CO2, concentrated brine workover/completion fluids, elemental sulfur and strong acids in China will pose risk in selecting and using of titanium alloy OCTG for oil & gas exploration. For the sake of preventing the loss of life and property caused by large safety accident in the application of titanium alloy, it is urgent to select and evaluate titanium alloy materials which will be used in oil & gas exploration in China according to domestic and foreign research experience, and define the service condition applicability and limit of each titanium alloy material to ensure the safety and reliability. On the basis of the related overseas research achievements of titanium alloy OCTG published in recent 30 years and the latest research results of titanium alloy OCTG in China, this article summarize the latest developments of titanium alloy materials selection for OCTG and oil & gas exploration service condition applicability of seven typical titanium alloys. Finally, the existing problems of the current application about titanium alloy OCTG are pointed out and the future development direction of titanium alloy OCTG is also proposed, providing a reference for the selection of titanium alloy materials for oil & gas exploration.
