Allowable Drilling Torque: Calculations 30,577 4.855 21.733 4.154 0.362 0.2

The document provides calculations to determine the allowable drilling torque for a drill pipe. It lists specifications for the drill pipe such as diameter, wear class, and material strength. It then performs calculations based on these values and specifications of other components to determine the weakest point and maximum allowable torque before failure.
