Steel Body Bits
The PDC Steel Body Bit is a high-performance fixed-cutter drill bit designed for durability, impact resistance, and superior drilling efficiency in challenging formations. Constructed from high-strength steel, this bit offers greater toughness and resistance to impact loading, making it ideal for high-speed drilling in medium to hard formations.With polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutters, this bit delivers fast penetration rates, enhanced stability, and reduced operational costs in oil & gas, geothermal, and mining applications. Its robust steel body allows for greater design flexibility, enabling customized blade geometries for optimized performance in various drilling conditions.
Key Features
- Steel Body Construction: Provides high impact resistance and flexibility for demanding drilling conditions.
- High-Performance PDC Cutters: Ensures superior cutting efficiency and extended durability.
- Optimized Hydraulic Design: Enhances cooling and cuttings evacuation for smoother drilling.
- Enhanced Blade Strength: Offers greater toughness compared to matrix-body bits, reducing breakage risks.
- Directional Drilling Capability: Provides greater control for vertical, deviated, and horizontal wells.
- Customizable Designs: Available in various sizes, blade configurations, and cutter layouts to match specific drilling requirements.
Advantages
- Higher Penetration Rates: Delivers faster ROP (Rate of Penetration) in suitable formations.
- Superior Impact Resistance: Handles shock loads and hard interbedded formations better than matrix-body bits.
- Longer Service Life: Durable design minimizes wear and extends bit longevity.
- Improved Wellbore Stability: Reduces vibration and enhances smooth drilling performance.
- Lower Drilling Costs: Optimized performance results in reduced trip times and lower cost per foot drilled.
