Summary of Practice4.1 Drilling:4.1.1 Drilling is accomplished by circulating a drillingmedium through the drill bit while rotating and lowering oradvancing the string of drill rods as downward force is appliedto a cutting bit. The bit cuts and breaks up the material as
27、itpenetrates the formation, and the drilling medium picks up thecuttings generated by the cutting action of the bit. The drillingmedium, with cuttings, then flows outward through the annularspace between the drill rods and drill hole, and carries thecuttings to the ground surface, thus cleaning the
28、hole. Thestring of drill rods and bit is advanced downward, deepeningthe hole as the operation proceeds.4.1.1.1 Fluid drilling is accomplished by circulating wateror a water-based fluid with additives. Additives such asbentonite or polymers are frequently added to water to lubri-cate and cool the bi
29、t and to circulate (transport) cuttings to thesurface. Drill fluid can also act to prevent cave or collapse ofthe drill hole. After the drilling fluid reaches the surface, itflows to a ditch or effluent pipe and into a settling pit where thecuttings settle to the bottom. Cuttings are sometimes runth
30、rough a shaker to remove the larger particles. From thesettling pit, the drilling fluid overflows into the main pit, fromwhich it is picked up by the suction line of the mud pump andrecirculated through the drill string.NOTE 1The decrease of mud velocity upon entering the mud pit maycause gelling of
31、 the mud and prevent cuttings from settling. Agitation ofthe mud in the pit can remedy the problem.4.1.1.2 Air drilling is performed where introduction offluids is undesirable. Air rotary drilling requires use of an aircompressor with volume displacement large enough to developsufficient air velocit
32、y to remove cuttings. Cuttings can becollected at the surface in cyclone separators. Sometimes asmall amount of water or foam may be added to the air toenhance return of cuttings. Air drilling may not be satisfactoryin unconsolidated and cohesionless soils under the groundwa-ter table.4.2 Coring:4.2
33、.1 Coring is the process of recovering cylindrical cores ofrock by means of rotating a hollow steel tube (core barrel)equipped with a coring bit. The drilled core is carefullycollected in the core barrel as the drilling progresses.4.3 Sampling:4.3.1 Once the core has been cut and the core barrel is
34、full,the drill rods or overshot assembly are pulled and the coreretrieved. Samples are packaged and shipped for testing (seePractices D5079).3Available from American Petroleum Institute (API), 1220 L.

Significance and Use5.1 Rock cores are samples of record of the existingsubsurface conditions at given borehole locations. The samplesare expected to provide indications about the geological,physical, and engineering na
36、ture of the subsurface for use inthe design and construction of an engineered structure. Thecore samples need to be preserved using specific procedures fora stipulated time (Practices D5079). The period of storagedepends upon the nature and significance of the engineeredstructure.5.2 Rock cores alwa
37、ys need to be handled such that theirproperties are not altered in any way due to mechanical damageor changes in ambient conditions of moisture and temperatureor other environmental factors.6. Apparatus6.1 GeneralFig. 1 shows the schematic of a typical rockcore drill setup (2). Essential components
38、of the drillingequipment include the drilling rig with rotary power, hoistingsystems, casing, rods, core barrels, including bits and liners,and pumps with circulating system. In addition, equipmentshould include necessary tools for hoisting and coupling anduncoupling the drill string and other misce
39、llaneous items suchas prefabricated mud pits and racks for rod stacking and layout.Normally, a drilling platform of planking is built up around thedrilling site.NOTE 2This standard is a practice and while the apparatus given is themost common type, this does not preclude the use of other current orf
40、uture drilling technologies.6.1.1 Rock coring operations can proceed at high rotationrates. It is imperative the drill rig, rods, and core barrels arestraight and have a balanced center of gravity to avoidwhipping and resulting damage to cores and expensive bits.6.2 Drilling Rig The drill rig provid
41、es the rotary powerand downward (or advance) force or hold-back force on thecore barrel to core the rock. The preferred diamond drill coringequipment are designs with hydraulic or gear-driven variablespeed hollow spindle rotary drill heads, although some coreFIG. 1 Schematic of Typical Diamond Core
42、Drill Set-up (2)D2113 143rigs are manufactured with gear or chain pulldown/retractsystems. Precise control over bit pressure can best be accom-plished by a variable setting hydraulic pulldown/retract system.Hydraulic systems are often equipped with a detent valve,which allows downfeed (or advance) r
43、ate to be set at a certainspeed regardless of tool weight or down pressure exerted on thecoring bit. Hydraulic feed drill rigs should be supplied with ahydraulic pressure gauge that can be related to bit pressures.Deep hole drill rigs should be equipped with hydraulic hold-back control so, if requir
44、ed, the full weight of the drill rods isnot exerted on the bit when drilling downward. Diamond drillrigs can apply high rotation rates as high as 1000 rpm asopposed to normal rotary drills operating at 60 to 120 rpm (3).Most diamond core drills are equipped with a mast andpowered hoist for hoisting
45、heavy drill strings. A secondwireline hoist is helpful for wireline drilling.6.2.1 The drill rig frame is either skid or truck mounted andshould be equipped with a slide base for ease in workingaround the drill hole. In special cases, the drilling rig may bemounted on a trailer, barge (for overwater
46、 drilling), or columns(for underground work). Some drill rigs are designed to bebroken down into several pieces for transport into remoteareas. The drilling rig power unit may be powered byhydraulics, air, electricity, gas, or diesel. Most surface skid ortruck mounted rigs are diesel or gas powered.
47、6.2.2 Drilling directions are rarely vertical in undergroundapplications, and smaller rigs are frequently equipped withswivel heads to accommodate drilling at angles. Specialaccommodations must be made for holding and breaking rodswhen drilling at high angles into crowns of adits. Either topdrive dr
48、ill or column mount machines with hydraulic orpneumatic rod jacks are equipped to handle up holes. Forconfined space drilling operations, drills are column mountedor mounted on small skids. Special power sources may berequired for underground work due to air quality consider-ations. Remote power pac
49、k stations usually electric, hydraulic,compressed air, or a combination of the three. Electricallypowered hydraulic systems are most common in undergrounduse today6.2.3 The platform may need to be constructed at thedrilling site to provide a firm base upon which the drill rig isthen placed. Platforms are also constructed in the vicinity ofthe drill hole for workers to hold equipment, serve as a datum,and to allow safe operations.6.3 Fluid or Air Circulation Systems:6.3.1 Selection of Drill MediaThe two primary methodsfor circulating drill cuttings are water or
