drilling fluid is the most important lifeline of the drilling operation, that main task is facilitate the cuttings removal of the drilling. there are varieties of drilling fluids such as sodium bentonite based-drilling fluid is called “mud” and drilling foam or surfactant based-drilling fluid is called “soap”. the present work aims are study on the modified drilling mud properties by using the ...

The aim of this investigation is to devise a robust detection method for drill bit break-through when drilling into long bones using an automated drilling system that is associated with mechatronic assisted surgery. This investigation looks into the effects of system compliance and inherent drilling force fluctuation on the profiles of drilling force, drilling force, drilling between successive...

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO2) jets are a promising method to assist drilling, enhance oil–gas production, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To further improve the drilling efficiency of SCO2 jet-assisted organ-pipe nozzles were applied generate self-excited oscillation jet (SEOSJ). The impact pressure rock erosion capability SEOSJs under both supercritical gaseous CO2 (GCO2) ambient co...

Abstract Lost circulation in fractured strata during drilling incurs additional costs and leads to difficulties promoting safety efficiency. Plugging-while-drilling is a feasible means address lost formations. The particle size distribution (PSD) of plugging particles determined empirically; therefore, it often not matched with the fracture sealing requirement. This study investigates mechanism...

– World wide drilling is developing for oil, gas or water resources. Electric motors power 75% of the total drilling rigs installation, augmenting to 95% for the case of Romania. Monitoring diesel generators micro-power station and motors of the rig is the second important thing to do and complete the main task of drilling process monitoring. This paper describe a monitoring and control system ...

Drilling samples of lunar soil is an important and indispensable part of China’s lunar exploration project. The drill bit temperature during the drilling process is one of the key concerns for scholars, especially for the hard lunar rock drilling in vacuum. In this article, the simulation analysis of drilling in atmosphere and vacuum is conducted. Moreover, a fiber grating temperature measuring...

Future in-situ lunar/martian resource utilization and characterization, as well as the scientific search for life on Mars, will require access to the subsurface and hence drilling. Drilling on Earth is hard – an art form more than an engineering discipline. The limited mass, energy and manpower in planetary drilling situations makes application of terrestrial drilling techniques problematic. Th...

Introduction: Commercial drilling, even deep-sea or remote, depends on human teleoperation. Lightspeed delays mean that coring and drilling beyond the Moon requires automation in order to not get stuck or risk mission failure. The Drilling Automation for Mars Exploration (DAME) is a NASA project for developing critical-path drilling software technologies. The DAME project’s purpose was to devel...
