    This presentation provides an overview of casing drilling and its various levels. Casing drilling involves drilling the wellbore while simultaneously casing it. This is done through a rotary drilling process where the casing replaces the drill pipe and provides energy to the cutting structure. The presentation defines the three levels of casing drilling and describes the surface equipment, bits, bottom hole assemblies, and accessories used in each level. Level 1 involves running casing with rotational capabilities. Level 2 uses either a drillable bit or bit crossover to drill to the next casing point. Level 3 uses a retrievable bottom hole assembly to enable directional drilling while keeping each drilled foot of casing in place.

    Casing Drilling Defined

    A rotary drilling process:


    That cases the well as it is drilled.
    Where the casing replaces the drill pipe.
    pipe
    Where the casing provides hydraulic energy and mechanical force to
    the cuttingg structure.
    Simply put in conventional drilling you would drill the hole with a bit and
    drill pipe, trip it out, and then case the hole. In Casing Drilling the hole
    i already
    is
    l d casedd once TD is
    i reached.

    Level 1

    The hole has already been drilled.


    drilled
    CDS and an optional reaming shoe are used to run casing
    with rotational and circulating capabilities
    Level 1.3- This is often used when the client is having
    difficulties getting the casing back to bottom.
    bottom They will use
    Level 3 retrievable system to direct casing through the well.

    Level 2
    Non-retrievable
    Non retrievable System
    Incorporates either drillable bit or bit crossover
    Drillable Bit ((XCD3),
    ), once casingg ppoint is reached,, the casingg is
    cemented into place. Another bit is then used to drill through the
    drillable bit and continues on to the next casing point.
    Bit crossover allows to reach casing point and drop ball to shear
    x-over and allow bit to fall into rat hole. The casing is then
    cemented into place. Limited to final casing point.
    Directional tools and MWD tools cannot be used.
    used
    Every foot drilled is kept.

    Level 3
    Retrievable
    Specially designed BHA that can be tripped and set at will
    without tripping the casing. As in Level 2 every foot that is
    drilled is kept.
    BHA can be tripped with drill pipe or wire line.
    Incorporates all directional and MWD tools.

    A pilot bit cuts a hole roughly 85% of required diameter.
    Underreamer is then used to open up the hole to desired OD.
