Step 1
Maintain a constant rpm. Select a WOB (near to maximum allowable).
Step 2
Record the time to drill off a weight increment (5000 lb)
Step 3
Record length of pipe drilled during step-2.
Step 4
From step 2-3, the drill rate in ft/hr may be found.
Step 5
Repeat step 2 and 3 at least four times. The last test should be at the
same
value as the first test. This will determine if the formation has changed
or not.
Step 6
Select the bit weight which produced the faster ROP. Maintain this WOB
constant and repeat the above procedure for varying RPM values.
