Drill Bit Types
1. Tricone Drill Bits: Rolling cutter bits (or rotary cone bits) have their cutting elements arranged on cones that rotate around their axes as the bit body spins. The number of cones on a bit can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. However, the most common rotary cone bits are tri-cone bits. Approximately 9...Read more -
Wellhead Equipment Installation Procedure and Precautions
Wellhead Valve Operation Precautions Caution must be exercised when opening or closing the valve. Some types of valves are equipped with a shear pin between the handle and the valve stem; if excessive force is applied, the shear pin will break automatically to protect the valve’s in...Read more -
Why tungsten price surging will bring challenges for the drilling industry ?
Tungsten prices have risen by over 200% year-to-date in late 2025, reaching a nearly two-decade high due to a severe supply crunch and surging demand. Tungsten (primarily tungsten carbide) is critical for drill bits,milling tools, wear-resistant parts/tools, and weighting materials in drilling. ...Read more -
