DRILLNOVAFIELD RECORD · 01 / 02

Roller-bit inspection record

Link the condition at each lift to the drilling interval, tool arrangement and photographs.

Inspect only with the tool safely supported and the equipment isolated under the site’s procedures. This form records observations; it does not authorise continued drilling.

1. Identify the tool and positions

Start with a complete-tool photograph, the cutting ring and a close-up of the position being reviewed. Number the positions on a copy of the ring photograph and keep the same numbering at later inspections.

Attach or reference the complete-tool / cutting-ring photo.
Photo ID:
Position numbering or sketch.
Identify inner / outer positions and direction of view.

2. Describe what changed

Change in drilling response
First noticed at depth / time
Tool / position changes · old and new cutter IDs

If a value is unavailable, write “not recorded”. Record the display channel and unit exactly as shown. Hydraulic pressure and engine speed are not substitutes for cutting load and rotary-head speed.

3. Keep the operating record alongside the inspection

Use one CSV row for each depth interval and identify new-rock drilling or reaming. Split the interval at any tool or cutter change; record old/new cutter IDs, position, change depth/time and reason. Record rotary-head RPM, the displayed load/pressure channel and unit, and any setting change. Keep cutting time separate from lifting, clearing, core recovery and delays.
