Oil and Gas PDC Drill Bits Have a Specialized Cutting Structure
The engineering expertise that we witness in the oil and gas PDC drill bits industry today is a
hard toiled result of years of consistent efforts in materials and designs
aimed at greater efficiency in drilling operations and extending bit life by
enhancing the rate of penetration, improving wear resistance. However, the most
landmark changes occurred in the design and functioning of the drill bit when
the industry was given polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits.
PDC drill bits
are different from the conventional roller cone bit as they have a
specialized cutting structure. The PDC cutters have
two parts - a polycrystalline diamond table and its substrate and are
improving the ROP in many difficult wells on a global scale. PDC drill bits
come with a fixed
cutter that has an incomparable performance in abrasive lateral applications.
Research and statistics have suggested that the PDC drill bits offer 56% more
footage drilled compared with that of the fixed cutter drill bits.
These features have definitely helped PDC bits reserve their
spot as the most efficient type of drill bits. The ongoing advancements in the
drill bit industry are improving the performance of the drilling industry and
changing the overall mechanics of drilling.
Some other features of high performance oilfield drill bits are:
·
Hardened
alloy steel/matrix
base material
·
High
performance PDC cutters
·
Gauge
protection, carbide, and diamond
·
Carbide/diamond
shock studs
·
Carbide
nozzles for flushing
