2008 Drill Bit
Classifier World Oil offers this comprehensive listing of major manufacturers’ drilling bits to aid drilling supervisors and engineers in field selection. While this listing has been published annually for many years, changes from year to year are significant. Prior to ordering, users should consult the manufacturer to verify availability and specifications. How to use the tables. The following tables are divided into six formation categories. Within these categories are listed most available drilling/ coring bits by type and manufacturer. To use the listings, identify the formation to be drilled, decide which bit type is appropriate, i.e., roller cone, fixed cutter, steel tooth, insert, diamond, etc., and then choose the manufacturer. Companies were asked to list bit data by: 1) IADC code, 2) readily available sizes (special sizes are often available on request), 3) recommended WOB in lb/in. diameter, and 4) codes for special features and usage, a combination of IADC and World Oil special codes (see Nomenclature). IADC codes. The Bit Classifier uses the International Association of Drilling Contractors’ (IADC’s) classification system for roller cone and fixed cutter bits. The standards for these classifications are two technical papers that appear in the IADC Drilling Manual, 11th Edition, Chapter A, Sections 2 and 3. The two papers are “The IADC roller bit classification system,” adapted from IADC/SPE Paper 23937, presented Feb. 18–21, 1992, and “Development of a new IADC fixed cutter drill bit classification system,” IADC/SPE Paper 23940, presented Feb. 18–21, 1992. All manufacturers were asked to submit data based on these classification systems. Formation categories. The tables show six formation categories corresponding to the IADC formation types. Companies were asked to list any discrete bit in only one formation type, leaving the user to decide about application in harder, or softer, rock. Nevertheless, duplication of similar bits in multiple formations remains. The formations are: • Soft and soft sticky. Low compressive strength and high drillability, such as clay, marl, gumbo, unconsolidated sand. • Soft-medium. Low compressive strength, inter-bedded with hard layers, such as sand, shale, anhydrite. • Medium. Moderate compressive strength, such as shale, chalk, anhydrite, sand. • Medium-hard. Dense with increasing compressive strength but non- or semi-abrasive, such as shale, siltstone, sand, lime, anhydrite. • Hard. Hard and dense with high compressive strength and some abrasive layers, such as sand, siltstone. • Extremely hard. Very hard and abrasive, such as quartzite, volcanics. Nomenclature. World Oil shows special features as codes, which include 16 designed by IADC and defined in the above classification papers, plus 11 featured exclusively by World Oil for added descriptions. The codes are: IADC A – Air drilling application B – Special bearing seal C – Center jet D – Deviation control E – Extended jet (full length) G – Gauge/body protection (additional) H – Horizontal steering application J – Jet deflection
L – Lug pads M – Motor application S – Standard steel tooth model T – Two-cone bit W – Enhanced cutting structure X – Predominantly chisel tooth insert Y – Conical tooth insert Z – Other shape insert
World Oil F – Face discharge ports I – Thermally stable synthetic diamond (TSP) K – Cross-flow hydraulics N – Turbine drilling O – Milling applications P – Percussion drilling
Q – Lateral nozzles R – Radial flow hydraulics RST – Rotary steerable U – Cutter density: light (l), medium (m), heavy (h), e.g., Ul, Um, Uh V – Anti-whirl characteristics

Note: Some companies list the recommended rotary speed range backwards. This is to imply that as the weight on bit increases, the recommended rotary speed generally decreases, and vice versa.
