Results of the full-scale lab test simulated underreaming operations in a hard limestone formation. The parameters were controlled with an ROP of 60 ft/h and 160 rpm. The measured results showed that the StingBlock cutter block reduced lateral vibration levels by 94% while requiring 24% less weight on the reamer, indicating overall improved drilling efficiency.

背景

The Gould Research Center in Cambridge designed a full-scale test to compare underreaming operations of two Rhino systems. In this test, one would be equipped with conventional cutter blocks and the 1 other one fitted with StingBlock cutter blocks. The test assessed performance while enlarging an 8 1/2-in pilot hole to 10 1/4 in.
