Abstract
A martensitic stainless steel oil country tubular good contains, by mass, 0.005% to 0.1% C, 0.05% to 1% Si, 1.5% to 5% Mn, at most 0.05% P, at most 0.01% S, 9% to 13% Cr, at most 0.5% Ni, at most 2% Mo, at most 2% Cu, 0.001% to 0.1% Al, and 0.001% to 0.1% N, with the balance being Fe and impurities, and the pipe has a Cr-depleted region under the surface. The martensitic stainless steel oil country tubular good according to the present invention does not have a passive film on the surface and corrodes wholly at low speed. In addition, the Ni content is reduced, which allows uneven corrosion to be prevented. Therefore, SCC can be prevented from being generated in spite of the presence of a Cr-depleted region.
