Much of the oil and gas industrys infrastructure is now either approaching or ageing far past its operational life expectancy.
With the cost of replacing assets, and the resultant turnaround time, prohibitively high for so many facilities, asset integrity is now rivalling terms such as OPEX and Agile as the watchword on peoples lips.
Challenges such as vessel inspection, which is a significant contributing factor to production downtime, and corrosion under insulation, a frequent cause of sudden shutdowns, are on the rise and taking the step to employ new solutions is becoming a necessity in many sites, particularly those offshore.
Drilling is a cutting process that uses a drill bit to cut a hole of circular cross-section in solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multi-point. The bit is pressed against the work-piece and rotated at rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute. This forces the cutting edge against the work-piece, cutting off chips (swarf) from the hole as it is drilled.
In rock drilling, the hole is usually not made through a circular cutting motion, though the bit is usually rotated. Instead, the hole is usually made by hammering a drill bit into the hole with quickly repeated short movements.
The hammering action can be performed from outside the hole (top-hammer drill) or within the hole (down-the-hole drill, DTH). Drills used for horizontal drilling are called drifter drills.
In rare cases, specially-shaped bits are used to cut holes of non-circular cross-section; a square cross-section is possible.
