Bits with roller bearings can be run at a higher speed than bits with journal bearings.
Bits with sealed bearings have a longer life than bits with open bearings.
Bits with journal bearings can be run at higher weights than bits with roller bearings.
Diamond product bits can run at higher speeds than three-cone bits.
Examination of dulls can also help you decide which bit to use.
Hoist and lower the bit slowly through ledges and doglegs.
Avoid sudden stops. Drillpipe stretch can cause a bit to hit the hole bottom.
Rotate the bit and circulate mud when approaching bottom. This will prevent plugged nozzles and
clear out fill.
Use a drill-off test to select best weight on bit (WOB) and speed
Select speed.
Select bit weight. Depending on bit selected, refer to appropriate manufacturers recommended
maximum speed and WOB.
Lock brake.
Drill at the weight and speed that give the fastest drill-off time.
Speed and weight may not be the best for bit type and formation. Use drill-off test.
