OUT Success Stories: Diamond-Cutter Drill Bits
Book
·
OSTI ID:14528
DOE contributed markedly to the geothermal, oil, and gas industries through the development of the advanced polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) drill bit. Diamond-cutter drill bits cut through tough rock quicker, reducing the cost of drilling for energy resources.
