... are available for assessing the degree of wear. Thus, quantitatively evaluating the wear of PDC drill bits has been a persistent research challenge. Evaluating drill bit wear status mainly relies on rock breaking efficiency and mechanical specific energy. In this study, a physical model was used to calculate...

... duration of 0.005 s to ensure a fast and steady average force required to linearly cut the rock. The contact between the PDC cutter and the rock. (2) Phase II mechanical specific energy is the energy consumed to contains a cutting process with a cutting speed of 1 m/s break per unit volume of rock...

... ABSTRACT : Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) characterizes the input and expenditure of energy during drilling. The rate of penetration of a drill bit (ROP) is the result of how much effective energy can be applied to break and remove rock. With evolving technologies and downhole sensors...

... and that the positive effects existed within a specific operational range. This paper compares the work completed by Rana et al and results from the DTL s pVARD field trial where the full scale pVARD tool was tested. The concept of mechanical specific energy (MSE), the amount of energy needed to remove a volume of rock...

... and finite element methods. The numerical models were carried out under different geometrical configurations, varying the cutter chamfer size and back-rake angles. The forces generated on the cutter are translated into mechanical specific energy, MSE as this parameter is often used to measure drilling...

... equal; i.e. the balanced pressure conditions with the pressures ranging from atmospheric pressure to 450 psi. The results of the first set of tests show that at 210 psi underbalance, the Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) is 58% of the MSE at the balanced conditions; while, extrapolating the trend the MSE...

...1. INTRODUCTION Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) and Rate of Penetration (ROP) are two key factors for evaluating the efficiency of a drilling process [1] and together they form a good base for strategizing a desirable drilling operation. MSE is defined as the energy required to removing a unit...

... of finding the inefficiencies and reaching the instantaneous optimization level. 2. DRILLING SPECIFIC ENERGY INDICATORS The concept of Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) was proposed by Teale [8], as a quick means of assessing rock drillability. This was defined as the energy required removing a unit volume...

... which take into account all parameters that affect ROP performance including operational parameters, formation description, bit design and bit wear. In 1965, Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) was put forth by Teale [1], in which the drilling process was treated as a mechanical, energy balanced system...
