A system, method, and computer-readable storage medium, of which the method includes receiving an image of a tool including a consumable object from a remote device via a network at a processor, decoding the image to identify the consumable object, using the processor, and determining a degradation characteristic, a consumption, or both for the consumable object by providing the decoded image to a neural network. The degradation characteristic represents a mode of degradation and the consumption represents an amount of degradation.

System for characterizing oilfield tools

A cutting element includes a body, a non-planar cutting face formed on a first end of the body, and an edge formed around a perimeter of the cutting face. The cutting face includes a central raised portion, and the edge has an edge angle defined between the cutting face and a side surface of the body. The edge angle varies around the perimeter of the cutting face and includes an acute edge angle defined by a portion of the cutting face extending downwardly from the edge to a depth from the cutting angle. The portion of the edge defining the acute edge angle may be directly adjacent: a side surface of the cutting element; a bevel of the cutting element; or a flat region at the perimeter of the cutting element or bevel.

Cutting elements having non-planar surfaces and tools incorporating the same

A cutting element may include a body, a concave cutting face formed at a first end of the body, the cutting face including one or more cutting ridges adjacent a cutting tip that are raised above the concavity of the cutting face and having a length that is at least about 10% of a diameter of the cutting face. An edge is formed around a perimeter of the cutting face, and the edge has an edge angle defined between a tangent of the cutting face and a cylindrical side surface of the body, the edge angle being acute at the cutting tip and varying around the perimeter of the cutting face.
