Bit Offers Speed, Control To Drill Demanding Wells

摘要

The new Talon? 3-D high-efficiency vector-accurate PDC bit shortens drilling time and provides the directional control necessary to drill curve and lateral sections in a single run, Baker Hughes says. According to the company, the bit's ability to provide a high rate of penetration enables operators to improve performance in difficult-to-drill formations. The Talon reliably handles drilling wear and tear by using an efficient bit profile, application-specific cutting structures, and superior hard-facing material, Baker Hughes says. It adds that the proprietary polished cutters reduce balling to eliminate buildup on the cutting face and aid cutting evacuation, improving overall drilling efficiency.
