7. Casing and Cementing
Bits type

Roller cone bits

Reason

Objective is to drill a straight vertical well

Less vibration and less deviation
Can drill in shale and sandstone ( hard formation and
medium hard formation respectively)

Inserts, teeth,
hydraulic
requirement

A relatively wide insert spacing will be used, so that

cuttings will less easier balled up in the spacing.
The inserts will be shorter and in stubbier. The reason it
is used because shale is quite a hard formation and
there are sandstone formation which is quite softer than
shale. Because of this, to stabilize the ROP, this insert
will be used
Cleaning or hydraulic flow will be relatively high,
depending on which formation are being drilled. If it
reaches hard formation, theres no need to have a high
hydraulic flow. But in order to avoid other problems
from occurring such as stuck pipes and etc, a medium
high pressurized hydraulic system will be used
Nozzle used will be a centre jet type. This is commonly
used to avoid bit balling.
Roller bearing will be used since high WOB will be
applied
Seals will be used so that lubrications in the bearing will
not washed by the drilling muds.
Anti bit balling coating
Hardfacing will be used on all part of the body of the
roller cone bit (tungsten carbide insert, cones, bit body,
bearing seals etc)

DRILLING FLUID

ViChem Multi-Hydroxyl Alcohol Drilling Fluid System

The MHA Drilling Fluid System is an innovative water based mud that utilizes the
unique properties of multi-hydroxyl alcohols. Multi-Hydroxyl alcohols are short
chain hydrocarbons similar to oil which allows the MHA mud system to have
stability and performance characteristics comparable to OBMs. However, unlike
petroleum products, the MHA molecule contains hydroxyl groups on each of the
carbons in the chain allowing it to be dispersible in water and completely
nontoxic to the environment.
ADVANTAGES

Nontoxic to the environment

Superior lubricity for increased ROP

Inhibits shale hydration

Specifically designed for horizontal drilling

Maximizes cost efficiency

More control over loss circulation problems than with OBM or SBM

Cleaner and easier to use than OBM or SBM
