A drill bit for drilling a borehole includes a cutter element comprising a base portion. In addition, the cutter element comprises a cutting portion extending from the base portion and terminating in an elongate crest extending between a first crest end and a second crest end, and having an intermediate portion therebetween. The first crest end has a width W1 and the second end has a width W2 that is greater than the width W1. Still further, the intermediate portion of the crest has a width W3 that is less than the width W2 and less than or equal to the width W1.

A drill bit for cutting a borehole comprises a bit body including a bit axis. In addition, the drill bit comprises a rolling cone cutter mounted on the bit body. Further, the drill bit comprises a cutter element having a base portion with a diameter and a cutting portion extending therefrom. The cutting portion comprising a first pair of flanking surfaces that taper towards one another to form a first elongate chisel crest, and a second pair of flanking surfaces that taper towards one another to form a second elongate chisel crest that intersects the first elongate chisel crest in top view. The first crest tangent angle at 10% of the diameter measured radially from the central axis on the first elongate chisel crest in profile view is greater than 75° and less than or equal to 90°.

Roller cone bits include a steel bit body having a leg extending therefrom. A steel cone is disposed on the leg and includes steel cutting elements projecting outwardly therefrom. One of the cutting elements comprises a steel base integral with the cone and that projects therefrom. A cutting element end is attached to the base portion and extends to form a cutting element tip. The base and end portions are attached when the cone base are in a preexisting rigid state. The end portion comprises a wear resistant material having a material microstructure comprising a first phase of grains selected from the group of carbides, borides, nitrides, and carbonitrides of W, Ti, Mo, Nb, V, Hf, Ta, and Cr refractory metals; and a second phase of a binder material selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, Fe, and alloys thereof.

Roller cone bits of this invention include a steel bit body having at least one leg extending therefrom. A steel cone is rotatably disposed on the leg. The steel cone includes a plurality of steel cutting elements that each project outwardly a distance therefrom. At least one of the cutting elements comprises a steel base portion that is integral with the cone and that projects a distance therefrom. A cutting element end portion is attached to the base portion and extends therefrom to form a tip of the cutting element. The base and end portions are permanently attached together when the cone and base are in a preexisting rigid state. The cutting element end portion is formed from a wear resistant material having a material microstructure comprising a first phase of grains selected from the group of carbides, borides, nitrides, and carbonitrides of W, Ti, Mo, Nb, V, Hf, Ta, and Cr refractory metals; and a second phase of a binder material selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, Fe, and alloys thereof.

A drill bit for drilling through earthen formations and forming a borehole. In an embodiment, the bit comprises a bit body having a bit axis. In addition, the bit comprises a plurality of cone cutters, each of the cone cutters being mounted on the bit body and adapted for rotation about a different cone axis. Further, at least one cone cutter on the bit comprises an array of cutter elements mounted in a band. Still further, the cutter elements in the array are mounted in a plurality of differing radial positions relative to the bit axis.
摘要:
A method for designing a drill bit in an earth formation, including defining parameters for a simulation of the drill bit drilling in earth formation, where the parameters comprise at least bit design parameters; executing the defined simulation; obtaining radial forces resulting from the executing of the defined simulation; applying a criterion to the obtained radial forces; and adjusting one of the at least bit design parameters in response to the applying of the criteria.
摘要:
A roller cone drill bit for drilling earth formation includes rows arranged on each of the cones such that, when viewed in routed profile, cutting element profiles partially overlap other cutting element profiles. The roller cone drill bit having at least a first three interior rows adjacent a gage row, each have a cutting element count selected from the group of 16, 18, 21 and 26 cutting elements.
