    摘要: A drilling rig has a bidirectional eccentric stabilizer for use in a wellbore. The bidirectional eccentric stabilizer is coupled between a drill string and a bottom hole assembly. The bidirectional eccentric stabilizer has a shaft connected between a first shaft end and a second shaft end, an annulus formed longitudinally through the shaft and a cutting portion formed on an outer surface of the shaft. The cutting portion has a first cutting portion, a second cutting portion, a plurality of helical blades, a plurality of flutes, a plurality of cutting nodes, and a plurality of impact arrestors. The bidirectional eccentric stabilizer has a center of eccentric rotation which is offset from the longitudinal axis of the shaft, enabling the bidirectional eccentric stabilizer to form a larger wellbore than a drill bit on the bottom hole assembly and a larger diameter wellbore than originally drilled by the drill bit.

    摘要: A method of assaying the compressive strength of rock comprises testing a primary plurality of rock samples of similar lithology, at least some of which have different porosities, to determine, for each sample respectively, a value corresponding to compressive strength and a value corresponding to porosity. A first series of pairs of electrical compressive strength and porosity signals, the signals of each pair corresponding, respectively, to the compressive strength and porosity values for a respective one of the samples, is generated. These signals are processed by a computer to extrapolate additional such pairs of signals and generate a second series of electrical signals corresponding to compressive strength as a function of porosity. The second series of signals may correspond to unconfined compressive strength, and may be further processed, to generate a cumulative series of signals, using electrical adjustment signals corresponding to other conditions affecting the compressive strength of the rock. Site characteristics of the rock for a wellbore locus, at a plurality of sites along the length of the locus, and as the rock would be addressed by a drill bit, are determined. At least one of these site characteristics is porosity. The site characteristics are used to generate a plurality of site signals, which, upon processing with the second series of signals (or cumulative series, if any), generate in-situ compressive strength signals corresponding to the in-situ compressive strengths of the rock at the respective sites.

    摘要: A method of regulating drilling conditions applied to a given well bit comprises assaying the compressive strength of the formation in an interval to be drilled by said bit. Wear of critical bit structure of the same size and design as in said given bit and which structure has drilled material of approximately the same compressive strength as that so assayed, is analyzed along with respective drilling data for the worn structure. From said analysis, a power limit for the respective compressive strength, above which power limit excessive wear is likely to occur is determined. Drilling conditions, such as rotary speed and weight-on-bit, at which the given bit is operated are regulated to maintain a desired operating power less than or equal to the power limit. Where several feasible rotary speed/weight-on-bit combinations may result in the desired operating power, these conditions are optimized.

    摘要: A method of assaying work of an earth boring bit of a given size and design comprises the steps of drilling a hole with the bit from an initial point to a terminal point. A plurality of electrical incremental actual force signals are generated, each corresponding to a force of the bit over a respective increment of the distance between the initial and terminal points. A plurality of electrical incremental distance signals are also generated, each corresponding to the length of the increment for a respective one of the incremental actual force signals. The incremental actual force signals and the incremental distance signals are processed to produce a value corresponding to the total work done by the bit in drilling from the initial point to the terminal point. Using such a basic work assay, a number of other downhole occurrences and/or conditions can be assayed. These include a wear rating for the type of bit, a determination of whether such a bit can drill a given interval of formation, and assessment of the abrasivity of rock drilled (which in turn can be used to modify the assays of other conditions and/or occurrences), a model of the wear of such a bit in current use, and a determination of the mechanical efficiency of the bit.
