GeoTech Fixed Cutter PDC Bits

GeoTech Fixed Cutter PDC Bits


Using DatCISM process and IBitS design software, Halliburton develops revolutionary fixed
cutter PDC bits that increase ROP and drilling intervals, decrease costs

Halliburtons new GeoTech series of fixed cutter PDC bits blends


design theory with practical application-specific knowledge to
produce custom-engineered matrix and steel body bits for optimal
efficiency and performancedelivering you a truly optimized
bit design.
Using the Design at the Customer Interface (DatCI ) process,
GeoTech bits help improve rates of penetration and enable
longer drilling intervalsall while lowering the cost per foot.
Our patented and proprietary IBitS design software enables
us to create 3D bit designs anywhere by using the latest
dynamics modeling, including upgrades that better simulate
cutting structures.

Features and Benefits


Each GeoTech bit incorporates specific application experience
with expert design science, including:
Our rock-interaction analysis tool helps predict load and
motion of a drill bit for multiple scenarios including rock
chipping, bent motor, whirl, and more.
Depth of cut control optimally positions cutting-structure
elements to smooth torque fluctuations, while a two-step cutter
layout position improves performance when primary cutters
wear or when drilling parameters change.
GeoTech PDC-cutter technology significantly helps increase the
amount of rock removed with less wear for higher average ROP
and up to four times the footage of previous products.
Improved hydraulics simulation leads to optimum hydraulic
design, directing flow with little recirculation and eliminating
stagnant zones to optimize bit cleaning and minimize erosion.
Advanced materials include new matrix/binder materials,
which increase durability and erosion resistance, enabling
innovative steel-blade geometries and aggressive matrix
body design.

The DatCI process of developing GeoTech bits brings together


differentiating bit design features needed for a given application,
models them for optimum performance with specific operating
parameters, monitors that performance, and then incorporates
up-to-date performance data into a continuous loop.

DatCI service platform: The most effective bit


optimization solution
Combining powerful design and simulation tools, and a global
network of technical resources, the DatCI service platform uses
direct customer input to rapidly optimize each GeoTech bit.
Our global network of application design and evaluation (ADE)
service specialists works directly with the customer to define
specific bit solutions, drawing from a toolbox of the industrys
most sophisticated software systems for comprehensive planning,
modeling, and engineeringwith real-time performance
optimization capabilities. That toolbox includes:
IBitS patented and proprietary system for creating 3D bit
designs anywhere, using the latest bit dynamics modeling,
including upgrades that better simulate cutting structures for
specific applications
Enhanced hydraulics modeling that provides a more accurate
bottom-hole pattern and enables quantitative analysis on cutter
faces and through junk slots to minimize erosion
