A hydraulic specific energy performance indicator for coiled tube turbodrilling

Efficient drilling of hard rocks in mineral exploration requires a comprehensive knowledge of the energy spent at the bit. The use of mechanical specific energy (MSE) proposed in the past for drilling performance studies does not consider the impact of fluid hydraulics and therefore the concept of D...
