A quick corporate look.

Encore Bits LLC is a privately held company with a single product focus - PDC drill bits. Our 1.64 acre, environmentally controlled, state-of-the-art facility is located in northwest Houston, near the intersection of Beltway 8 and Highway 290. We take pride in recycling 100% of our raw materials, and in being a part of the Houston oil and gas industry.

We provide standard oilfield size PDC drill bits (from 4" to 24") as well as custom diameters for less common casing diameters and special projects. Our designs run full spectrum, from gumbo drilling fishtail designs proven in the Gulf of Mexico to ultra-tough bits designed to drill the abrasive sandstones and dolomites of the Middle East.

Domestically, we are involved in projects including the Gulf of Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mid-Continent, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Rocky Mountains and numerous other states. Our international focus includes Latin America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, West Africa, and many other global locations.

Encore is a fast growing and rapidly evolving company, with a solid base of experienced drilling, materials and manufacturing personnel. We are solution oriented, and use a broad range of engineering tools coupled with decades of field experience to solve difficult drilling problems.

At Encore, we understand drilling, not just bits. We look at the entire drilling project, not just at the end of the drill string. One of the most effective ways to improve drilling performance is to optimize bit design and application. At Encore, we are dedicated to developing and delivering faster drilling PDC bits, and applying those same bits in the right place and in the right fashion.

Bits are one of the lowest cost items in total spread cost, yet they can make or break an AFE or even an entire project. We have decades of actual drilling expertise to draw from, with people from all aspects of the drilling industry. We look at everything from directional components to fluid flow models in a project to select the most appropriate bit. Our bit selection is not simply predicated on the rock we need to drill, but on the actual tools used and expected problems in a given well. We look at the whole picture, and select bits to maximize penetration rate, reduce drilling days and solve downhole issues.
