CounterForce PDC Bit Technology
CounterForce PDC Bit Technology
Counter Force re-directs lateral forces to fail rock, not your bit.
Unrestrained lateral forces, particularly in high-speed directional wells, generate excessive vibration that, at best, puts the brakes on optimum drilling efficiency, but at worse, can prematurely destroy a premium PDC bit. With CounterForce, Ulterra has given new meaning to groundbreaking PDC bit technology with a unique cutter configuration that minimizes torque and vibration to deliver unequaled lateral stability, more footage and cost-effective drilling rates.
The patent-pending Counter Force is a true step-change advancement in PDC bit design. Unlike conventional PDC bits, Counter Force technology employs a novel cutter orientation where the cutters work together, forcing the bit to essentially grasp the bottomhole pattern, giving it the traction and stability necessary to handle otherwise destructive and efficiencyrobbing lateral vibration. Counter Force reins-in lateral forces, re-directing them from the bottomhole assembly into the formation where they work to your advantage by failing rock and removing it from the hole much more efficiently. The exclusive cutter angle arrangement produces a reliable bit that slices the formation and remains sharper, longer, delivering higher penetration rates while saving you the costs of unnecessary bit trips.
Results from hundreds of wells, comprising more than one million feet of hole, document the capacity of Counter Force PDC bits to consistently reduce torque and vibration problems, improve directional control, and exhibit near-green end-of-run dull conditions. In multiple applications, Counter Force has routinely delivered exceptional drilling rates, up to 50% faster than the best available offset, saving operators tens of thousands of dollars and as much as a full day of drilling.
When every run counts, Counter Force is one more reason why you can count on Ulterra - the industry’s premier PDC bit innovator.
