What are the points to be aware of when buying pdc drill bits

PDC Drill Bits have high drilling efficiency and low loss, the following are the places to pay attention to pdc drill bits:

1. Match the specification of the drill bit with the formation

Bit diameter: It should be matched with the drilling diameter, too big or too small will affect the drilling efficiency and bit life.
Number and shape of cutter flanks: Choose the appropriate number and shape of cutter flanks according to the hardness and lithology of the formation. For hard strata, it is better to choose the drill bit with more cutter wings and sharp shape; for soft strata, it is better to choose the drill bit with less cutter wings and rounded shape.
Thickness of diamond layer: The thickness of diamond layer directly affects the wear resistance of the drill bit, the higher the hardness of the formation, the thicker the diamond layer should be.

2. Drill Bit Quality

Brand and Manufacturer: Choose a drill bit made by a famous brand or a manufacturer with a good reputation, the quality is more guaranteed.
Material: The material quality of the PDC drill bit directly affects its performance. High-quality diamond and matrix materials should be selected.
Manufacturing process: Precise manufacturing process can ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface finish of the drill bit, and improve the service life of the drill bit.
Appearance inspection: The appearance of the drill bit should be carefully inspected for cracks, defects, etc. before purchase.

3. Drilling parameters

Drilling pressure and rotation speed: Different formations have different requirements for drilling pressure and rotation speed, so you should choose the appropriate parameters according to the formation conditions and bit specifications.
Pump pressure and displacement: too much or too little pump pressure and displacement will affect the life of the drill bit and drilling efficiency.

4. After-sales service

Technical support: When purchasing drill bits, you should choose the manufacturer that provides good technical support so that you can get timely solutions when you encounter problems during the use.
After-sales service system: A perfect after-sales service system can ensure the normal use of the drill.

5. Price

Cost-effective: Price is not the only criterion for choosing drills, you should consider the quality, performance and price of the drills, and choose the products with high cost-effectiveness.
Don't be greedy for cheap: too low a price may mean that the quality of the drill is not satisfactory, and problems may occur during use.

6. Other considerations

Drilling fluid: Choosing the right drilling fluid can effectively protect the drill bit and improve drilling efficiency.
Drilling tool combination: The reasonable combination of drilling tools will also affect the performance of the drill bit.

Regular inspection and maintenance: Regularly check the wear of the drill bits and replace the worn bits in time.

Summarize

Purchasing PDC drill bits is a systematic project that requires comprehensive consideration of many factors. Only by choosing a drill bit that is suitable for the formation conditions and of reliable quality and using it reasonably can the drilling operation be ensured to go on smoothly.
