Numerical modeling on drilling fluid and cutter design effect on drilling bit cutter thermal wear and breakdown

Abstract The unconventional reservoir geological complexity will reduce the drilling bit performance. The drill bit poor performance was the reduction in rate of penetration (ROP) due to bit balling and worn cutter and downhole vibrations that led to polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutter to b...
