ABSTRACT:
A sub-surface borehole underreamer is disclosed having freely rotatable precessing diamond cutters attached to extendable arms connected to the body of the underreamer. The diamond cutting face is skewed to a degree that tangential contact of the peripheral edge of the diamond cutter causes the rotating cutter to precess as the underreamer body is rotated by a drill string.
