Abstract: This application relates to an apparatus for winding strandular material known in the textile industry as a takeup device. The overall arrangement of the device incorporates a stationary supporting spindle onto which a rotatable package support is mounted for receipt of strandular material wound thereon. The support and the strandular material wound thereon as the package is progressively built, is adapted for contact with a rotatable drive drum. A traverse device to guide the strandular material to the rotatable package and control the manner in which the strandular material is wound thereon is also included. Both the drive means and the traverse means including the motors therefor are mounted on a freely vertical movable carriage supported within a frame member and uniquely counterbalanced by a pulley suspended counterweight system. The spindle and the package support are mounted on said frame independent of such carriage. The drive and traverse means are thus free to move upwardly while the package progressively builds on the stationary spindle. Initial pressure means are further included to apply an initially higher pressure between the drive means and the package support to prevent skidding during the required acceleration of the support to its operational winding speed. Additionally, differential pressure means are included to progressively decrease the amount of drive pressure between the drive drum and the package as the package builds.

Abstract: A method for predicting the rate of penetration (ROP) of a drill bit drilling a well bore through intervals of rock of a subterranean formation is provided based on determined relationships between a bit-specific coefficient of sliding friction μ and mechanical efficiency EFFM and confined compressive strength CCS over a range of confined compressive strengths CCS. Confined compressive strength CCS is estimated for intervals of rock through which the drill bit is to be used to drill a well bore. The rate of penetration ROP is then calculated utilizing the estimates of confined compressive strength CCS and those determined relationships.

Abstract: A method for estimating the CCS for a rock in the depth of cut zone of a subterranean formation which is to be drilled using a drilling fluid is disclosed. An UCS is determined for a rock in the depth of cut zone. A change in the strength of the rock due to applied stresses imposed on the rock during drilling is calculated which includes estimating the ΔPP. The CCS for the rock in the depth of cut zone is calculated by adding the estimated change in strength to the UCS. The present invention calculates the ΔPP in accordance with Skempton theory where impermeable rock or soil has a change in pore volume due to applied loads or stresses while fluid flow into and out of the rock or soil is substantially non-existent. CCS may be calculated for deviated wellbores and to account for factors such as wellbore profile, stress raisers, bore diameter, and mud weight utilizing correction factors derived using computer modeling and using a baseline formula for determining an uncorrected value for CCS.

Abstract: A method for predicting the rate of penetration (ROP) of a drill bit drilling a well bore through intervals of rock of a subterranean formation is provided. The method uses an equation based upon specific energy principles. A relationship is determined between a bit-specific coefficient of sliding friction μ and confined compressive strength CCS over a range of confined compressive strengths CCS. Similarly, another relationship for the drill bit is determined between mechanical efficiency EFFM and confined compressive strength CCS over a range of confined compressive strengths CCS. Confined compressive strength CCS is estimated for intervals of rock through which the drill bit is to be used to drill a well bore. The rate of penetration ROP is then calculated utilizing the estimates of confined compressive strength CCS of the intervals of rock to be drilled and those determined relationships between the bit-specific coefficient of sliding friction μ and the mechanical efficiency EFFM and the confined compressive strengths CCS, as well as using estimated drill bit speeds N (RPM) and weights on bit (WOB).
