THE FEATURES OF WORK OF CARBIDE-TIPPED DRILL IN CRUMBLING ROCKS

The drill bit in the oil and gas industry plays a key role in the drilling process, but its operation in the field, filled with difficulties and dangers, emphasizes the need for careful study of its behavior. This equipment, which is the head of the well, is forced to face various challenges during drilling, where danger can await at every step. However, special attention should be paid to those cases when the drill bit collides with crumbling rocks. In conditions of high pressure and friction associated with drilling, the drill bit is subjected to significant loads. These conditions can lead to damage and breakage of equipment, which in turn creates additional risks for workers on site. Understanding the behavior of a drill bit in crumbling rock is becoming an extremely important aspect to ensure the efficiency and safety of field work. The analysis of the technical characteristics and mechanisms of the impact of the drill bit on crumbling rocks makes it possible to develop more reliable and durable tools capable of withstanding extreme conditions. This, in turn, increases drilling efficiency, reduces the risk of industrial accidents and ensures safer working conditions in the oil and gas industry.
