How to select a drilling rig bit

 

1. Stratigraphic condition analysis

Rock properties: Different rock properties have different requirements for drill bits. Soft rock can use drill bits with large slag discharging capacity, while hard rock requires hard and wear-resistant drill bits. Strata with a high degree of fragmentation are prone to rock chips, which require drill bits with good slag discharge capacity.


Stratigraphic and hydrological conditions: Groundwater level and water pressure will affect the selection of drilling fluids. Stratigraphy with high water content is prone to well wall collapse, which requires the selection of corrosion-resistant and scour-resistant drill bits.


stratum complexity: Interlayers, faults, etc. in the stratum will increase the difficulty of drilling, and it is necessary to choose adaptable bits, for example, high geostress will easily lead to jamming of the drilling tools, and it is necessary to choose the bits with good rigidity and torsion resistance.

2. Drilling depth

Shallow water wells: you can choose simple structures and low-cost drill bits.

Deep water wells: You need to choose a drill bit with good abrasion resistance and strong impact resistance to ensure the stability and efficiency of drilling.

3. Drill Bit Types

Three-tooth drill bit: suitable for soft rock and medium-hard rock stratum, with a lower price.

PDC bit: suitable for hard rock and stratum interface, high efficiency, and long life.

Diamond bit: Suitable for ultra-hard rock formation, expensive.

Carbide drill bits: high hardness, wear-resistant, suitable for hard rock and medium-hard rock formations.

What are the differences bewteen core drilling bits and pdc drilling bits

  Although both core drills and PDC drills are tools used for drilling and sampling, there are significant differences between them in terms of material, structure, and scope of application. Core Drill Definition: A core drill is a broad concept that refers to all drills used for coring operations. It can be a variety of types such as tungsten carbide bits, PDC bits, diamond bits and so on. Function: Mainly used to remove a cylindrical section of core sample from different types of materials for subsequent analysis and research. Material: Various materials, including carbide, diamond, PDC, etc. Different materials are selected according to the hardness and toughness of the drilling material. Structure: Relatively simple structure, mainly consists of drill body, inner cylinder and outer cylinder. Application:  Wide range of applications, including geological exploration, engineering survey, mineral exploration, etc. PDC Drill Bit Definition: PDC drill bit is a special coring dr...

What is the diffirence between slurry pump and mud pump?

Many people confuse the concepts of   slurry pump s and   Mud Pump s, but in terms of practical applications or the characteristics of the conveying medium, there are indeed countless similarities between the two pump. Concept analysis of slurry pump and mud pump: The slurry pump is mainly suitable for industries such as mining, power plants, dredging, metallurgy, chemical engineering, building materials, and petroleum. Mud pump is also a popular concept of a broad pump, and different regions, habits, and ultimately involve different pump types. Mud pumps are used in the field of oil drilling. In fact, some non clean water pumps and mud pumps such as sewage pumps and slurry pumps are also commonly referred to. The similarities between slurry pump and mud pump: 1. In terms of working principle, it belongs to a centrifugal pump. Conceptually, it refers to a mechanical device that converts electrical energy into the kinetic and potential energy of the medium by increasing the ene...
