The ultimate goal in drilling in oil and gas applications is to improve the rate of penetration (ROP) and one important factor that affects the ROP enhancement is Drill Bit. Today, PDC bit plays a significant role in drilling all types of formations. Besides the material development, bit design or a way of cutters arrangements on a bit is a regular challenge for bit designers to improve the bit performance. This concept has been experimentally studied in this work.
Different sets of cutters arrangements containing three PDC cutters on a flat bit profile have been used to conduct a variety …
