Mechanism of drilling rate improvement using high-pressure liquid nitrogen jet
To address the high rock strength and low drilling rate issues in deep oil/gas and geothermal exploitation, we performed mechanical property tests on three kinds of rock samples (granite, shale and sandstone) subjected to liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling and conducted rock-breaking experiments using LN...
