Drill String Design

This document discusses the design of a drill string for an oil drilling operation. It covers the components of a bottom hole assembly including bits, subs, stabilizers, and drill collars. Guidelines are provided for selecting drill collar sizes based on hole section diameters. Factors considered in drillstring design include tensile, collapse, burst, and torsional loading. Analysis of the bottom hole assembly design is also discussed.
