I. Maurers perfect cleaning theory
Should be mention that•Tool angle ranking 30-90 degrees has the more effective point while tool angle greater than 90 degrees the effectiveness decrease.•When the weight on the bit has very high value the R/N ratio decrease very rapidly as the rotary speed increases due to cleaning problem which occurred from high drilling rates

II. Warren cutting removal model
The first fraction is based on the assumption that the WOB is supported by a fixed number of teeth and is independent from the teeth depthThe second fraction describes the WOB distribution for more teeth as the WOB is increased and the teeth penetrate deeper into the rock. The third fraction indicates that when the cutting size is increased, an increase from the impact force is required, to maintain a particular level of cutting removal.

Conclusions
General consideration (1)• There are many parameters which influence the penetration
rate.• The constants of the penetration model improve the accuracy.• The combinations between the drilling parameters are unlimited
and the drilling measurement is always different.

Conclusions
General consideration (2)• A Monitoring system needs to be used in order to have reliable
data.• To increase the accuracy of a model, it is necessary to use data
from more than a single well.• Simulators improve the evaluation of field data and find the
optimum drilling parameters.
