Unique Pivot Stabilizer Geometry Advances Directional Efficiency and Borehole Quality With a Specific Rotary-Steerable System

Abstract: The geometry of a stabilizer, when it is used as a near-bit pivot within specific point-the-bit rotary-steerable bottomhole assemblies (BHAs), is critical to both stability and deflection to provide optimal directional response. This paper describes the testing of a rotary-steerable system (RSS) and unique ring gauge pivot stabilizer at a purpose-built, full-size drilling test facility. The extensive, systematic testing of a point-the-bit RSS with both full ring gauge and conventional pivot stabilizer has enab… Show more
