The IADC Bit and BHA Dull Grading Manual is now available for instant download (at no cost), issued by the IADC Advanced Rig Technology Committee.
The purpose of this resource is to provide recommended practices and an improved framework for bit dull grading. These recommended practices were developed by a joint IADC/SPE subcommittee in an effort to upgrade the IADC dull grading practices, improve operational practice performance, reduce costs and emissions, and provide energy solutions.
The manual covers:
- Drilling Forensics
- Drill Bit Dull Grading
- Bottom Hole Assembly Dull Grading
- Failure Reporting Process
- Data Collection & Visual Information
- Data Management Recommended Practice for Bit, BHA & Operational Data
Thank you to the 160+ volunteer subject matter experts involved in the development of this manual!
