ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a global drilling system comprising a crown bit, a driver drill bit and a square drill bit. The crown bit has a tubular body with an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein the inner surface circumscribes a hollow passageway, and a pair of projections extending into said hollow passageway. The pair of projections are positioned substantially opposite one another on said inner surface. The driver drill bit has a drilling head with a pair of cut-away portions positioned substantially opposite one another and a pair of locking surfaces adapted for engaging the projections on the crown bit. The square drill bit has a drilling head with two tapered cut-away portions positioned substantially opposite one another. Each cut-away portion corresponds to one of the pair of projections such that the drilling head is able to pass through the hollow passageway of the crown bit.
