Off-Earth drilling may be assumed as the second phase of space exploration to discover the unrevealed subsurface on the planetary bodies. It accelerates future space objectives such as in-situ propellant production, mineral exploitation, and space tourism. Owing to the rampant progress in modern technology, the new drill tools mounted on the sophisticated robots are capable to drill the planetary regolith dispersed on the celestial objects; however, formidable obstacles such as microgravity, vacuum condition, and temperature fluctuation as well as the weight limitation, lack of real-time drilling analysis, and remote robot-operator communication impose pressing restrictions on the quick development of space drilling tools. In this study, research on the past and present aspects of off-Earth drilling has been implemented to illuminate the horizon of this technology in the near-term future. The context encompasses a detailed description of the limitations, applications and mechanisms of the different drilling techniques adopted for planetary bodies. A particular emphasis is put on the hydraulic power systems which have not been satisfactorily deployed in off-Earth drilling yet. The research strives to glance over the pivotal aspects of off-Earth drilling to contribute to the future drilling programs planned by the national and private space agencies.

Summary A review of the use of measurement while drilling (MWD), logging while drilling (LWD), and directional drilling (DD) tools mobilized to offshore drilling units in the North Sea highlighted an opportunity to lower operational cost for the operator and reduce capital used for the oilfield services company. An objective was set to develop a risk-based probability model that would assess the positive and negative financial impacts of reducing, or perhaps entirely removing, backup tools in this historically risk-averse basin. The scope of the initial analysis was a drilling campaign on a single rig contracted by the operator (Rig A). This analysis was then extended to review scenarios in which several operations in close proximity would share backup tools. The last 3 years of MWD/LWD/DD tool reliability data from North Sea operations, recorded by the oilfield services company, were used as an input. To assess the probability of failure, a binomial model was developed to create a binomial distribution for each tool to calculate the probability of having zero to X failures for a selected tool or bottomhole assembly (BHA) for a given number of runs. Three binomial models were developed to study the effect of “easy,” “moderate,” and “challenging” drilling environments on tool reliability. A financial risk model was designed to balance the probability-weighted cost of failure for the operator against the lower costs resulting from reduced tool provision by the oilfield services company. To better estimate risks and financial impacts on the project, a sensitivity analysis was performed on the financial risk model using the three binomial models. As a result of the analysis, it was demonstrated that recent improvements in tool reliability support a reduction in the provision of backup MWD/LWD/DD drilling tools for the majority of North Sea drilling scenarios.

For comparison, the drilling behaviour of abaca fiber-reinforced polymer (AFRP) composites and Kevlar-reinforced epoxy polymer (KFRP) composites has been studied in the specified experimental condition. The different geometrical drilling tools have been used for the investigation, namely, candlestick (T1), core (T2), standard twist drill (T3), and step cone (T4). The tool feed of 30, 45, and 60 m/min and rotational speed of 1000, 1500, and 2000 rpm have been used for the investigation. The thrust force is chosen as a response parameter for this study. The results revealed that, at lesser rotational speed and tool feed, the thrust force has declined. The result obtained correlates with the abaca fiber-based systems. However, the thrust force of KFRP is higher compared to AFRP composite systems. The axial force generated by candlestick drill is minimal compared to the other drill bits. The following may be responsible for lower thrust force: (1) the axial force distributes circumferential of the cutting tool instead of focusing at the center and (2) the interfacial adhesiveness between the matrix and the fiber is higher. The optimization of drilling process parameters, namely, tool feed and rotational speed on thrust force, has been studied. The results reveal that the tool feed contributed more to axial force compared to rotational speed.

Abstract The pressing challenge is the abnormally rapid wear of well logging equipment and drilling tools when drilling wells in pay zone of Chayandinskoye field. Wear-out of BHA stabilizers within one run makes directional drilling inefficient and results in additional trips to replace equipment. Wear-out of drill pipes results in emergencies risk increase. To prevent such incidents the necessity arises to conduct an unscheduled inspection, reject and replace drilling tools. All these conditions entail increase in drilling time and decline in profitability. Problem analysis and expert review was made by drilling optimization specialists from DD Contractor jointly with the experts from R&D Center and Operator Company. This paper discusses how cooperation of the engineers from three companies as well as a particular approach to incident investigation and drilling engineering made it possible to identify the most critical factors, which contribute to a standard BHA wear, to work out measures to prevent similar situations in future and select an alternative BHA. The gained experience has been successfully disseminated to the other wells in Chayandinskoye field and other fields in Eastern Siberia; and the incident investigation methods and drilling engineering procedures are effectively applied under the other projects.

Abstract One of the main challenges from operating companies is the continuous reduction of well construction time. During drilling, considerable time is spent on static measurements to determine the wellbore location and to verify that the actual well path matches the planned one. The electromagnetic telemetry system (EMT) allows the taking of static directional survey measurements during connections, when the drill string is in slips. Transmitting commands to the rotary steerable system (RSS) through the EMT does not cause the drilling process to stop, which also reduces well construction time. The work describes well drilling experience with the use of the electromagnetic channel for communication with the rotary steerable system and the positive displacement downhole motor not only in horizontal section but in all well sections, starting from the top hole. Combined use of the complete logging while drilling tools (LWD) with this type of the telemetry system is a valuable finding. The article describes BHA, operational principles of this type of the telemetry system, and problems which may arise during operation.

Abstract With the vigorous development of offshore oil and gas resources in the world, underwater extended reach horizontal wells have been widely used. However, due to the complicated stress and serious corrosion of drill pipes in horizontal wells, drill pipes are vulnerable to damage. After a period of service at sea, some drill tools will be placed in coastal areas for a long time. The cumulative fatigue of drilling tools is not easy to master. In the past year or two, drilling tool failure has become more and more frequent. In order to evaluate the fatigue of drilling tools in different periods and master the quantitative fatigue of drilling tools, the metal magnetic memory method has its unique advantages in detecting the stress concentration and early damage of ferromagnetic materials. The self-developed metal magnetic memory detection device is used to detect the drilling tools in the drilling tool base. The results show that the gradient peak value and ladder are used to detect the drilling tools in the drilling tool base. The average degree can be used to classify the fatigue of drilling tools, and the metal magnetic memory method is more than sensitive to various defects of drilling tools, such as penetration, internal corrosion, external corrosion, wall thickness thinning, etc.

Abstract The ancient formation is very thick, strong abrasion and poor drillability. Formation pressure of some area is abnormal high-pressure, induced high mud density, and borehole instability problems in some formation restrict the positive displacement motor (PDM) application, and impact drilling tools are instable. All above factors restraint the rate of penetration. Based on the result of litho-mechanical experiments, the impacting experiments are performed on samples of the Jurassic formation, impact fractured efficiency are evaluated, the results show high impact resistance in the formation, the best impact speed is over 12m/s, and the result was important design basis for impact tools improvement to increase the rate of penetrate (ROP) in the deep poor drillability formation.
