Abstract
A drilling rig with bidirectional dual eccentric reamer which forms a larger wellbore than originally drilled and larger than the drill bit diameter. The bidirectional dual eccentric reamer has a shaft with a longitudinal axis supporting a plurality of reamer portions. The reamer portions have a plurality of helical blades of varying thicknesses. The plurality of helical blades can have a plurality of cutting nodes and cutting inserts. The plurality of helical blades have a center of eccentric rotation which is offset from the longitudinal axis, thereby creating an eccentric rotation which allows for the formation of a larger wellbore than originally drilled and larger than the drill bit diameter.
