The EJECTOR Near-Bit Higher ROP Longer Bit

The EJECTOR Near-Bit Higher ROP & Longer Bit life

The EJECTOR Near-Bit The Ejector is a Near-bit sub, similar to a standard NB Tool, but it is designed and engineered for creating a vacuum effect at the bit formation interaction face thus expelling the cuttings readily as they are generated! The Ejector NB tool also increases the speed of cuttings traveling up the annulus. The Obvious and proven Benefits: Higher ROP & Longer Bit life

Compatibility with other tools of the BHA • The EJECTOR tool installed directly above the bit. • It is applicable to be used with PDC or Tricone bits, with all drilling Modes “ Rotary Drilling, Mud Motors, Turbines, RSS …” • There is NO impact on other BHA parts performance including directional tools and sensors. • Guaranteed lifetime is 300 hours. No need to pull out of hole upon reaching 300 hrs. It can be used for another 100 hours.

Advantages of the Ejector • Increases ROP • Increases Bit service life • Tripping Less for bit replacement • Prevents bit balling • Decrease Mud Additives • Easy to handle

Principle of operation The Ejector • Installed above a bit and RIH as part of BHA § When mud flows downward reaching the Ejector, a small part (20 -23 %) of the mud changes its direction from downward to upward. § This action creates negative pressure zone above the Bit. § Receiving suction effect (on the bottom hole below the bit)

Hardening of the wellbore

Principle of operation which results in : § Makes the rock destroying ability of bit more effective. §The cuttings are milled and chipped off easier from the rock. § The cuttings are carried out faster from the bits zone. Hence, no more redrilling and milling of cuttings. § The Bit is worn-out less and drills for longer time.

Principles of the EJECTOR NB Two principles were used on designing the EJECTOR NB and are responsible for its increased efficiency : • Energy Loss at the Sudden Expansion of Fluid Flow in Confined Space • Intersection of two flows in conventional Ejectors, the kinetic energy of the jet is converted into the potential energy of pressure, which dramatically reduces their efficiency. In our EJECTOR tool we use only the kinetic energy of jetting, and therefore there is no energy loss.

The EJECTOR’s Operational Limits § Flow rates as standard NB subs. § No restrictions on Press. & Temp § Accepts all mud weights. § WOB, Torque, Tensile and Compressive strengths same as standard NB subs. Mud intake should not contain solids more than 0. 15” in size

Selection of Bit Nozzles with EJECTOR Runs (processing of drilling parameters) DI uses in house created software for selecting bit nozzles specially for application when the EJECTOR NB is run. The nozzles sizes are selected based on the desired drilling parameters which is fed to the software. We make the software available for use in field conditions. Of course, the nozzles are selected only for the bit. The EJECTOR has its own fixed nozzles which are not changed.

Features of the EJECTOR - Totally Compatible with any BHA with any Bit “tricone , PDC” - Available for any bit’s size - Could be manufactured for any standard by Customer’s request - No impact on another tool of the BHA
