PDC Drill Bits and Accessories Dominate the Drill Bit Market – Here’s Why

Drill bits come in all shapes and sizes. Right from Steel Tooth Rotary Bits to Carbide Insert Bits, and Polycrystalline Diamond Compact (PDC) Bits to Diamond Bits, drill bits are available across the drilling industry in several types. Choosing the right type of bit usually depends on two significant factors - the type of formation and the conditions in which drilling is to be performed.

The performance of a bit usually depends on operating parameters including but not limited to weight on bit (WOB), revolution per minute (RPM), mud properties and hydraulic efficiency, and so on. Several types of drill bits are available these days and the drill bit technology has also evolved over the years!

It is no surprise that PDC drill bits are the most used drill bit type in current day drilling operations. Going by the facts, PDC drill bits and accessories came into the market way back in 1971 and were initially designed by a popular American multinational conglomerate. PDC bits have emerged out to be a reliable substitute to steel tooth roller cone used in moderate formations and the natural diamond surface-set bits used in the hardest as well as most abrasive of the formations.

It was post 2000 that PDC Drill Bits witnessed a rapid penetration into the market and became a preferred choice for drillers around the world. The innumerable advantages of PDC drill bits and the consistent R&D has brought one of the most cost-saving, efficient, and reliable drill bit for the drillers across the world. No wonder more than 80% of the footage drilled worldwide is achieved through PDC Drill bits.
