🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of components in a drill string / drill stem (what each piece actually does) • How weight is applied to the bit for better penetration and stability • Difference between a connection (joint), a weighted member, and general downhole tools

💭 Think About

• Which item in the choices is specifically designed to add concentrated weight right above the bit, not just to connect or transmit torque? • Which terms are more general categories (could mean many kinds of tools) versus the one that names a particular, standard piece of thick-walled pipe? • Think about where this piece sits in the drill string: is it part of the regular drill pipe, a connector at the ends, or a special short, heavy section near the bit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is known as a short, very thick-walled, very heavy section used for weight on bit (WOB). • Eliminate any option that mainly describes a connector between pipe sections instead of a weighting member. • Eliminate any option that sounds like a broad category name rather than a specific, named component of the drill stem.
