Currently, the drilling fluid processing and recycling has gained more attention from various oilfields. Whether the waste drilling fluid’s processing and recycling is good or not will directly affect the development of oil industry. Therefore, the urgent affair is to develop and research the processing method of waste drilling fluid.This article describes various processing methods of waste dr...

Scientific selection of drill bits during drilling is a key technology to achieve high-speed drilling and reduce drilling costs. Based on the analysis of bit’s working principles and its applicable conditions and in accordance with the well conditions of ultra-deep wells in Y area of Tarim Oilfield, this study has conducted mathematical statistics on a large number of actual drilling practices ...

Contamination types, levels and their behavior within drilling wastes is determined by the local geological conditions and drilling mud design; notably lubrication fluids, weighting agents and anti-foaming agents. Such additives can contain potentially toxic elements such as aluminum and barium. Besides being contaminated, drilling wastes often have a high pH due to the addition of lime, causti...

a r t i c l e i n f o In many mining, civil, and petroleum engineering applications diamond bit drilling is widely used due to high penetration rate, core recovery and its ability to drill with less deviation. Recently, many research have been conducted to estimate the penetration rate of diamond drilling which can be considered as one of the most important parameters in project planning and co...

OBJECTIVES In this study we evaluated heat generation during the low-speed drilling procedure without irrigation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten artificial bone blocks that were similar to human D1 bone were used in this study. The baseline temperature was 37.0℃. We drilled into 5 artificial bone blocks 60 times at the speed of 50 rpm without irrigation. As a control group, we drilled into an addi...

Oil and gas well drilling activities are associated with numerous hazards which have the potential to cause injury or harm for people, property and the environment. These hazards are also a threat for the reputation of drilling companies. To prevent accidents and undesired events in drilling operations it is essential to identify, evaluate, assess and control the attendant risks. In this work, ...

Drilling procedure is widely used in orthopedic surgery to position reduced fractured bones and prosthetic components. However, successful execution of bone drilling requires a high level of dexterity and experience, because the drilling resistance is large and sometimes vibrates violently to difficultly grasp the hand-piece or even break the slender drill. This paper introduces haptic function...

In this research, finite element analysis of the conventional drilling and vibration assisted drilling is carried out. The ABAQUS software is employed for FE analysis. The Johnson-Cook models for both plastic deformation and damage are employed for FE simulation.The results of the FE analysis are then verified with experimental results in both conventional and vibration assisted drilling on Al ...

This paper is concentrated on the polynomial regression model, which is useful when there is reason to believe that relationship between two variables is curvilinear. The polynomial regression model has been applied using the characterisation of the relationship between strains and drilling depth. Parameters of the model were estimated using a least square method. After fitting, the model was e...

Bone fracture due to an accident, aging or diseases is a feature of everyday life. One of the principal methods of repair and reconstruction of such a fracture is based on drilling the bone and fixing its separate parts together using screws, wires and plates. Morphology of the drilled hole surface and fixative components such as screws, pins and hooks influences strength of the bonds between t...
