Operating Parameters

We want you to get the most out of the product that you have selected for use on your project. The application of the correct operating parameters is essential to optimizing your product selection in the field. The drill operator should take the time to determine the ideal operating parameters with respect to rotational speed, bit load and circulation fluid requirements based on:

• The expected formation conditions,
• The capabilities of the drilling equipment,
• The type of core bit that has been selected for use.
