Characterizing Rock-Breaking Performance of PDC Cutters via Stability Metrics and Energy consumption in FDEM Simulations
Abstract As oil production increasingly transitions from shallow to deep formation, the need for efficient PDC cutters to drill through deep hard rock becomes paramount. Currently, there is a lack of effective methods for optimizing cutter shapes and their cutting parameters. This study addresses th...
