A drilling assembly comprises a bit body having a central axis and a blade extending radially outward from the bit body. The blade is defined by a leading edge and a trailing edge. A gauge surface extends from the leading edge to a surface break and may be disposed at a gauge diameter from the central axis. A recessed surface extends from the surface break to the trailing edge. The recessed surface may be configured to avoid contact between the trailing edge and the wellbore wall.

A drill bit comprises a bit body having a body face. A plurality of fixed blades extends from the bit body. Each of the plurality of fixed blades has a leading face and a trailing face. A plurality of nozzles is disposed on the body face to flow drilling fluid out of the bit body. A plurality of flow guides direct a portion of the drilling fluid away from the bit body. Each of the plurality of flow guides extends longitudinally from the body face, and along the leading face of one of the plurality of fixed blades.

A downhole activation assembly includes a housing that is operatively connectable to a downhole tool and that has a passage for flow of fluid therethrough. An indexing assembly is positionable in the housing, includes a multiple position indexer and an indexing tube, and is operatively connectable to the downhole tool. A sleeve valve includes a fixed sleeve portion and a movable sleeve portion that is positionable in the housing passage and defines a ball passage therethrough. A valve seat in the sleeve valve is configured to receive the ball such that the flow of the fluid is selectively restricted through the ball passage. The movable sleeve is engagable with the indexing tube to selectively shift the indexer between multiple positions whereby the downhole tool is selectively activatable.

A tool for reaming a borehole includes a tubular body having a central axis, an uphole reamer section mounted to the body, and a downhole reamer section mounted to the body. Each reamer section includes a first blade extending radially from the body. Each blade has an uphole end, a downhole end opposite the uphole end, and a formation-facing surface. The formation facing surface of the first blade of the uphole reamer section is disposed at a radius R1 that increases moving from the uphole end to the downhole end. The formation facing surface of the first blade of the downhole reamer section is disposed at a radius R1′ that decreases moving from the uphole end to the downhole end. The tool also includes a cutter element mounted to the formation facing surface of the first blade of each reamer section.

A rolling cone drill bit for drilling a borehole in earthen formations includes a bit body having a bit axis. In addition, the rolling cone drill bit includes a rolling cone cutter mounted on the bit body and having a cone axis of rotation. The cone cutter includes a cone body, a plurality of teeth arranged in a first inner row, and a plurality of inserts. Each insert is disposed within one tooth in the first inner row.

A method of making a polycrystalline diamond cutter element includes forming a blend, comprising a first particle size of polycrystalline diamond particles and a second particle size of polycrystalline diamond particles; forming a suspension of nanocrystalline diamond particles suspended in a solvent; and mixing the blend into the suspension to form a polycrystalline diamond mixture comprising nanocrystalline diamond coated polycrystalline diamond particles. The mixture is sintered with a substrate at high temperature and high pressure to form the polycrystalline diamond cutter element.

A polycrystalline diamond cutting (PDC) element of a drill bit of a downhole drilling tool is provided. The PDC element having a substrate, a diamond table and at least one pattern. The diamond table has an initial cutting edge along a periphery thereof. The pattern integrally formed within the diamond table. The pattern(s) defining at least one discontinuity about the diamond table that, in operation, selectively breaks away upon impact to create new cutting edges in the diamond table whereby a sharp cutting edge is continuously exposed to a material being cut.

An insert for a rolling cone drill bit includes a base portion having a central axis. The base portion is configured to be seated in a mating socket in a cone cutter of the rolling cone drill bit. In addition, the insert includes a cutting portion extending from the base portion. The base portion has a radially outer surface including a non-cylindrical axial retention feature configured to prevent the insert from moving axially out of the mating socket or a non-cylindrical torque holding feature configured to prevent the insert from rotating relative to the cone cutter.

Disclosed is a rolling cone drill bit with inner row cutting teeth having portions shielded with an erosion-resistant material that differs in material properties from the tooth's core portion that is more impact resistant. The tooth includes shielding on at least a portion of the upstream end and along portions of the flanking surfaces. It includes shield-free portions on the flanks between the root and the tooth crest. Most of the tooth's perimeter is made of the core material and is free of shielding. Gage row teeth may be angled and form a channel to direct drilling fluid from the gage region of the borehole to locations where the inner row teeth are generating most cuttings. Nozzles are provided with non-uniform orientations.
