The rock cutting process will, in particular with PDC bits, generate
a great deal of heat at the bit. Unless the bit is cooled, it will
overheat and quickly wear out.
The circulation of the drilling fluid will cool the bit down and help
45 Days Long lubricate the cutting process.

Virtual Mud densities are usually reported to the nearest 0.1 ppg (lbs per gallon). Other units in common use are lbs/ft3,
Internship on psi/ft, psi/1000ft, kg/l and specific gravity (S.G.).

The essential elements of the device are a plumb bob attached to a torsion spring and deflection gauge and a
cylinder which can be rotated at a range of rotary speeds.

Industrial
Practices rotated the mud between the cylinder and
plumb bob is sheared.

Mud Pumps
Positive displacement type pumps are used (reciprocating pistons) to deliver the high volumes and high
pressures required to circulate mud through the drillstring and up the annulus.
The discharge line from the mud pumps is connected to the standpipe – a steel pipe mounted vertically
on one leg of the derrick. A flexible rubber hose (kelly hose) connects the top of the standpipe to the
swivel via the gooseneck.
