Special guest Sterling Robinson of Varel International Energy Services returns to join us for Part II of our Drill Bit series. In Part I of this series, we touched on the relationship between drilling fluids and drill bit performance. In Part II, we start with hydraulics. Sterling takes us into what bit hydraulics are and why they're important. We also touch on what kind of technology and improvements have been made with respect to bit hydraulics, drilling performance and more.

This episode kicks off a two part series on drill bits with Sterling Robinson from Varel International. Tune to learn the ins and outs of drill bits, with of course, some banter on the side.
