ION+ Eclipse PDC Cutter Technology
Advanced design increases ROP while simultaneously reducing torque fluctuations, transforming premium drill bit performance.
The ION+™ Eclipse polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) shaped cutter platform provides high-efficiency drilling in a broad range of applications, such as vertical, curve, and laterals. The ION+ Eclipse shaped cutter effectively removes the cuttings from the face of the cutter and thus reduces the reactive forces on the bit. Laboratory tests and proof of performance have demonstrated this benefit across various formation types.
Increased Cutting Efficiency
- Improves rock destruction mechanism
- Optimizes cuttings flow
- Minimizes frictional heat
- Stays sharper effectively
Whole Drill Bit Benefits
- Reactive torque reduction
- Elevates tracking capability
- Minimizes bit-generated dysfunction
- Effective weight on bit (WOB) transfer
- Reduces bit balling
Target Applications
- Curve and Lateral
- Interbedded drilling
- High torque drilling
