Abstract

As mentioned in Chap. 3, conventional coring is a traditional method of taking samples from bottom-hole formations. This method is still the most commonly practiced method in the petroleum industry whereas it is almost never used in the mining industry.

1
Otherwise if the barrel is combined with gel or sponge, etc., only closed-end inner tubes can be used. In such inner tubes, the ball is already seated in the seat and thus the inner tube is closed from its top. This makes the mud circulation through the inner tube impossible. Therefore, before tripping the drill string to the core point, care must be taken to wash and condition the bottom hole.
 
2
Traditionally, the conventional coring was conducted with both the outer and inner tubes rotating. This caused mechanical and vibration damage to the recovered rock sample in the inner tube. As a primary innovation in the core barrels, bearings/swivels were added to the inner tube assemblies so that the outer tube assembly is free to rotate whereas the inner tube can remain stationary.

Tugger line is a wire rope used in the drilling rig for lifting light loads.
 
4
For overpull, apply 5,000–35,000 Ibs depending on the core size.
 
5
PDC bits have longer life and thus contribute to reducing the number of round trips particularly for long coring operations with minimum core barrel length of 90 or 120 ft.
