    Abstract: A drill bit includes a bit body with high and low fluid pressure bodies. The low-ressure bit body includes a fixed cutting structure, and the high-pressure bit body includes at least one high-pressure fluid channel and nozzle capable of withstanding fluid pressures greater than 40 kpsi (276 MPa). A bottomhole assembly includes a drill bit with a bit body having fixed cutter and fluid jetting portions. Low and high-pressure channels in the bit body exit in the fixed cutter and fluid jetting portions. A high-pressure nozzle is coupled to the fluid jetting portion and the high-pressure fluid channel, and a plurality of fixed cutting elements are coupled to the fixed cutter portion. A pressure intensifier is coupled to the drill bit and is configured to increase a pressure of a fluid supplied to the high-pressure fluid channel in the bit body.

    Abstract: A cutting bit includes a bit body and high-pressure body with a high-pressure fluid conduit therethrough. The high-pressure body and bit body are joined together. The high-pressure fluid conduit is configured to convey a fluid at greater than 14.5 ksi, and in some embodiments greater than 40 ksi. The high-pressure fluid conduit may direct the fluid through a nozzle in a fluid jet to weaken material, such as an earth formation. The cutting bit includes at least one roller cone and/or blades with cutting elements thereon to remove the weakened material. A cutting bit includes both high and low-pressure fluid conduits, and high and low-pressure fluid nozzles. The high-pressure nozzles receive fluid flow from a downhole pressure intensifier, and a connection between the bit and the downhole pressure intensifier includes rigid connectors, flexible connectors, or a combination thereof.
