The borehole diameter was a little larger than the bit diameter due to side force. However, the reaming effect was not very apparent, whether drilling with an offset or conventional one-cone bit. The side cutting displacement increased gradually with increasing depth of drilling and side force. The side cutting displacement of offset onecone bits was larger than that of conventional ones under the same conditions of weight-on-bit (WOB), rotary speed, side force and borehole depth.展开更多
