Study and Application of Rock Drilling Resistance Characteristics in the Jiyang Depression Formation

In response to the unclear drilling resistance characteristics of rocks in the Ji'yang Depression, low drilling efficiency of PDC drill bits, and difficulties in drill bit selection, this study selected rock samples from different depths in the area for indoor drilling resistance analysis testing. Based on logging data, a prediction model was established for drilling resistance characteristics parameters of the strata in the area, and a graph of drilling resistance characteristic parameters of the rocks in the area was drawn. The study showed that the uniaxial compressive strength of the strata rocks was 50-110 MPa, with a hardness of 500-1300 MPa, a plasticity coefficient ranging from 1 to 2, a rock drillability grade of 8-20, and an abrasiveness index of 5-20. Combining the analysis of on-site drilling bit failures, PDC drill bits adapted to the strata in the area were selected, and the mechanical drilling speed of the selected bits reached 12.58 m/h, successfully drilling through the target layer. The above research results are of guiding significance for understanding the reasons for the difficulty of drilling into the Jiyang Depression strata and for improving mechanical drilling speed and drill bit selection in this area.
