Test plan for core drilling ignitability testing

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/470874· OSTI ID:470874
The objective of this testing is to determine if ignition occurs while core drilling in a flammable gas environment. Drilling parameters are chosen so as to provide bounding conditions for the core sampling environment. If ignition does not occur under the conditions set forth in this test, then a satisfactory level of confidence will be obtained which would allow field operations under the normal drilling conditions.
