Slide reamer and stabilizer tool

A downhole tool, for selectively reaming a wellbore or stabilizing drill string components within a wellbore, includes an elongate tool body adapted to receive reamer cartridges or stabilizer cartridges depending on the function desired. The reamer cartridges are radially insertable into corresponding pockets in the tool body, with each reamer cartridge having a reamer insert with an array of cutting elements. The reamer insert is disposed within a bushing and is rotatable relative thereto, about a rotational axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the tool. However, the rotational axis is offset from the tool body axis, resulting in eccentric contact of the cutting elements with the wall of the wellbore, which in turn imparts rotation to the reamer insert when the tool is being moved axially through a wellbore without rotation. When the tool is to be used for stabilization, the reamer cartridges can be removed and replaced with stabilizer cartridges having stabilizer inserts with hard-faced stabilizer cones.

Bi-Axial Drill Bits and Bit Adaptors

Drill bits comprise a body having an uphole end and a downhole end. The uphole end is adapted for connection to a tool assembly for rotating the drill bit. The tool assembly has an axis of rotation. The downhole end has one or more cutting members adapted for removing material in contact with the downhole end when the drill bit is rotated. The body has an uphole major axis and a downhole major axis. The uphole axis and the downhole axis are offset from each other. The uphole axis is central to the uphole end and is aligned with the tool assembly axis of rotation. The uphole axis defines an axis of rotation for the drill bit. The downhole axis is central to the downhole end.
