Halliburton Introduces Higher-Power, Higher-Torque Downhole Drilling Motors

Sperry Drilling, a Halliburton business line, has introduced the SperryDrill® XL/XLS and GeoForce® XL/XLS series motors to its fleet of positive displacement drilling motors.
 
SperryDrill and GeoForce XL and XLS series motors offer novel downhole drilling motor technology for harsh drilling conditions and special applications such as air drilling, extended-reach drilling and high-temperature drilling. The new motors can be configured to suit any drilling environment, balancing power and durability to deliver unsurpassed performance and reliability in a positive displacement mud motor.
 
The XL and XLS series motors afford more consistent power delivery to the bit while retaining power in reserve to withstand the toughest drilling conditions. In addition to providing up to 80 percent more power, the XL and XLS series motors are able to achieve higher build rates unattainable with conventional motors because of a shorter bit-to-bend.
 
XL series motors have been run in North and South America and in the Middle East, delivering exceptional performance by increasing rate of penetration, eliminating readjusting motor trips, and improving reliability. These high-power motors offer the:
  • Highest torque rating in the industry;
  • Highest weight-on-bit rating in the industry;
  • Toughest bearing assembly in the industry.
Since the 1980s, Sperry Drilling has applied its experience gained as a market leader in drilling services to the development of the new SperryDrill XL/XLS and GeoForce XL/XLS downhole drilling motors.
