Innovative Dual-Chamfer Edge Technology Leads to Performance Gains in PDC Bits

Abstract: The dual-chamfer diamond cutter is a new technology combining a primary chamfer with a secondary edge, enabling greater footage to be drilled without compromising rate of penetration (ROP). The average distance drilled in the Mississippi Lime formation was increased by 40% while maintaining comparable ROP to offsets and with significantly improved dull bit conditions, resulting in greater reliability. Since 2013, more than 1, 500 runs with bits utilizing dual-chamfer technology were performed in Oklahoma. The … Show more

“…However, the estimation proceeding from a large number of assumptions is very tentative. A more precise estimate is provided by the results of bench-scale tests conducted to reproduce the rock breaking process and perform correct measurements (Besson et al, 2000;Borisov, 2002Borisov, , 2010Glowka, 1987;Izbinski et al, 2015;Rafatian et al, 2010;Rajabov, 2012). However, these works pay almost no attention to the dynamic component of cutter loads.…”

“…Polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits break rock via shearing and offer many advantages for drilling, such as high efficiency in rock breaking, enhanced safety (e.g., no moving cutting elements), and long cutting life thanks to PDC teeth wear. Given these benefits, PDC bits are widely used in oil and gas well drilling [1][2][3] , and researchers have conducted extensive work on the improvement of drilling speed focusing on two main aspects: (1) how to improve bit's performance to feed into the formation, e.g., the development of a new cutting-teeth structure or combinations of various rock-breaking methods; and (2) the matched use of drilling tools, drill bits, and downhole tools, e.g., screw drill, turbodrill, axial impactor, peripheral impactor, or hydraulic oscillator. To deliver efficient drilling, drill bits require aggression and a long service life.…”

“…Such stability is thus essential to consider in bit design. Existing methods to improve PDC bit stability include the following: (1) adjusting PDC teeth parameters to ensure that the unbalanced bit force is less than 5% of the weight on bit (WOB); (2) optimizing the shape of the drill bit's crown contour and increasing the angle of the inner cone to help to prevent transverse vibration to some extent; (3) setting the PDC teeth to form grooves at the bottom of the hole, which can suppress bit vibration; (4) using a spiral blade, dispersing the cutting force directed at the shaft wall, and reducing contact stress between the bit-retaining part and the shaft wall; and (5) improving the impact resistance of PDC teeth by improving their processing technology [6][7][8][9][10] .…”
