Knowledge of tricone bit,and method of application A new Fast - Max HSS tooth tricone bit belong to the gulf

of Mexico region to achieve than practice in the United States steel tooth bit higher rate of penetration. At the same time, the service life of the drill bit, durability and gauge ability are improved greatly, the cutter and the small diameter bit wear under a longer interval; When using the new drill bit to drill on medium wob and to ensure that bit of good water supply, such talents full play to the advantages of this kind of high bit rate of penetration; Due to the new HVST bit can achieve a higher rate of penetration and longer bit life, thus able to shorter drilling time, larger single bit footage, tripping times less, and less spare time to drill the whole interval, so the purchase of steel tooth bit number less; Although the performance of PDC bit from time to time to improve, but as a result of this new type HVST steel tooth bit can significantly improve the comprehensive economic benefits of drilling, thus will make the total drilling footage of steel tooth bit to continue in the United States belong to the area occupies a large proportion of the gulf of Mexico. Although the PDC bit is eating away at the traditional cone bit market increasingly, Tricone bit the new steel tooth bit cutting structure should not only improve the bit rate of penetration. But in the United States in the gulf, nearly half of the total drilling footage is still done by steel tooth bit drilling without sacrificing durability. New type of high speed steel teeth (HVST cone bit proprietary pyramid steel gear is the key, the tooth bit is not only more aggressive cutting structure, and can make the bit cutting structure before passivation adhere to the good condition for longer periods of time. The U.S. gulf of Mexico region, 12 inches bit within 36575486 meters hole drilling. General is 81/2 inches bit within 36575486 meters hole drilling, mud density is 2037 ~ 2277 kg/m3. In order to improve the 81/2 inches IADC117 steel tooth bit penetration rate of drilling in the gulf of Mexico area in the United States, 82 - inch IADC117 steel tooth bit in order to improve the penetration rate of drilling in the gulf of Mexico area in the United States. America, hughes christensen, the company developed a called FastMax new type of high speed steel tooth bit. Bit in the row for pyramid-shaped teeth, outside for a chisel, and outside chisel tooth addendum to some shorter than routine tooth addendum. New type used on similar to practice drill bit tooth depth and the rotary offset value, but increased the two rows of teeth. And practices within the chisel bit on row, compared to the new pyramid on the bit tooth addendum much shorter in length, which provides space to increase the tooth row. This design to prevent bit balling is quite good. In addition, also is in the middle tooth row pyramid design a wider gap between provides the space. Resistance on the new type of bit has devised a repetitive grinding tooth row, one of the roller on the middle of the tooth row within the designed a total of about practice twice the number of teeth, to break the routines bit often left a large number of grinding the bottom layers should be repeated. Used for drilling in high abrasive formation or longer interval drill multiple interval; Design a modified bit gauge structure, research and development team has also developed a new type with super wear-resisting performance of high speed steel tooth bit. In order to prevent the drill reducing outside and reduce the size of bit teeth and gauge between the cone shell erosion; To develop a modified bit tooth palm palm pointed protection structure. New FastMax bit gulf area, southern Louisiana and Texas in the United States become widely

available, 128498124 and 172 - inch HVST bit. Bit including test by 81/283/497/8121/4 and HVST 171/2 "bit, not only the mechanical drilling rate and drilling footage has greatly improved, the new bit at the same time also shows the decrease of the cutter wear and strong ability to drill gauge, Cone bit codeword the life of the new palm tip and durability has significantly improved. Louisiana sea area of the Mississippi valley sandstone and shale alternate formation, the 78 inch new HVST bit moderate drilling parameters. A 97/8 inch new HVST bit moderate drilling parameters, the penetration rate of 16.8 meters per hour in 76 hours finished drill hole 1278 meters, the average penetration rate increased by 10% the other new HVST bit more radical drilling parameter drilling rate of 22.6 meters per hour in 59.5 hour drill hole 1339 meters, mechanical drilling rate increased by 46% for drilling operation trader saved $139000 in drilling costs. The two bit after passivation state out of the well is very good.
