Product Description

Milling shoes in drilling operations are mainly used to clean, repair or destroy bottom hole obstacles, such as falling objects, scale or hard formation, to ensure the smooth operation of the drill bit, is an important auxiliary tool in the drilling process.
In the complex and varied drilling operations, the drill bit is the key tool to go deep underground and explore oil and gas resources. However, the drilling process inevitably encounters various challenges, such as downhole falling material, formation scaling, or encountering unusually hard rock formations, which can hinder the normal advancement of the drill bit and affect drilling efficiency and safety. At this time, the seemingly simple but powerful tool of shoe milling is particularly important.

1.The basic concept of Milling Shoes
The shoe mill, as the name suggests, is a special tool used in drilling operations, which resembles a small drill bit, but is designed to adapt to different downhole needs. Mill shoes are usually made of high-strength alloy steel and covered with wear-resistant materials to increase their service life and cutting efficiency. According to the requirements of the job, the shape, size and cutting surface design of the shoes will be different.
2.Mill shoes function
1.Cleaning the bottom of the hole:When the bottom of the hole scale, sediment and other obstacles are encountered in the drilling process, the mill shoe can be rotated and pressurized to effectively clean the bottom of the hole and restore the normal working environment of the drill.
2.Hole trimming: During drilling, the hole may become irregular, enlarged, or narrowed due to formation changes or improper operation. At this time, the mill shoe can be used to trim the hole to ensure that the hole diameter meets the design requirements, laying a good foundation for subsequent drilling operations.

3.Damage to hard formations: When encountering exceptionally hard rock formations, conventional drill bits may be difficult to drill effectively. At this time, with its special cutting surface and strong cutting force, the milling shoe can help the drill to break through the hard formation and achieve smooth drilling.
3.The operation process of milling shoes
The operation process of shoe milling is relatively complex and requires precise control by experienced drilling engineers and technicians. First, select the appropriate type and specification of milling shoes according to the underground situation; Secondly, the milling shoe is connected to the drill string and sent to the designated position through the drilling equipment; Finally, by controlling the rotation speed and pressure of the drilling equipment, the milling shoe can carry out efficient cutting operation at the bottom of the well. In the entire operation process, it is necessary to pay close attention to the change of drilling parameters and adjust the operation strategy in time to ensure the safe and efficient use of milling shoes.
4.The key application of shoe milling in solving downhole problems
In drilling operations, milling shoes are widely used and vital. For example, when dealing with downhole debris, the shoe can be rotated and pressurized to break or push the debris to the side of the hole, creating favorable conditions for subsequent salvage operations; When solving the problem of formation scale, the shoe milling can effectively remove the scale layer at the bottom of the hole and restore the normal drilling ability of the bit. When breaking through hard strata, shoe milling is an indispensable right-hand man.
In summary, as an important auxiliary tool in drilling operations, milling shoes play an immeasurable role in ensuring the smooth progress of drilling and improving drilling efficiency and safety. With the continuous development and innovation of drilling technology, the design and application of milling shoes will also be more diversified and intelligent, providing more solid technical support for the exploration and development of oil and gas resources.
