Study on the PDC Bit Optimization Design Based on Rotary Steering Drilling

Abstract:

According to a series of characteristics produced from the side cutting in the rotary steering drilling system, PDC bit is improved from the profile shape, cutting structure, and gauge structure. Also, suggestions are proposed according to the drilling parameters of operation. The study result shows that the requirements of the rotary steering drilling system can be fulfilled by PDC bit design result and drilling parameter adjustment.
