The performance of ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker in Run-2 at Large Hadron Collider has been reviewed during the current long shutdown. The LHC successfully completed its Run-2 operation (2015-2018) with a total integrated delivered luminosity of 156 fb −1 at the centre-of-mass pp collision energy of 13 TeV. The LHC high performance provides a good opportunity for physics analysis. The instantaneous luminosity and pileup conditions were far in excess of what the SCT was originally designed to
