Wintershall expected that the challenging interval would require multiple bit runs to drill through halite, anhydrite, polyhalite, dolomitic limestone, and claystone.
The closest offset well, drilled in 2019, required three 8½-in drillbit runs to drill the entire section over 11 days.
The DBOS drillbit optimization system for aiding operators in selecting optimal bits recommended the HyperBlade bit for its precision-molded diamond table with an armored cutting edge for greater durability and control. Its chip-breaking profile and hyperbolic shape improve cuttings removal.
Using the DBOS system to aid in bit selection, Wintershall anticipated that multiple bit runs would typically be required from shoe to total depth. The HyperBlade bit drilled from shoe to TD in 5 days in one run.
The HyperBlade hyperbolic diamond element bit drilled a challenging 8 1/2-in section to TD in one 5-day run in a directional development well in The Netherlands.
