Configuration Options
- Drill faster and longer using the shorter power section and unique stator design that increase ROP and WOB
- Compared to spiraled tubes, DuraTorque Even Layer Power Sections are also less susceptible to buckling or deformation
- Discover how DuraTorque provides unparalleled flexibility, along with Strength at Every Turn™
Drilling Advantages
- Up to 2.5x more power than standard stator designs, which substantially improves motor Rate of Penetration
- Increased weight on bit in tight doglegs by utilizing shorter stator length
- More compact power section for maximized length-to- torque ratio
- Fewer stalls, which equal less stress on drill strings
- Fewer rotor/stator combinations are required to cover the same temperature range, resulting in lower tool inventories
- Increased fluid compatibility, including explosive decompression from gas drilling
- Our advanced design process employs a modular approach resulting in rapid prototyping and production
- There are virtually no limits to tube size, length, or configuration of the DuraTorque stator
- In most cases, we can quickly design a stator to match existing rotor fleets or custom-design a complete power section to exact customer specifications
- The DuraTorque stator is easily refurbished, and our North American manufacturing facility provides an average three-week turnaround time for stator relines
Research and Development
- Our dynamic high temperature lab tests materials up to 400°F/204°C
- Our dynamometer qualifies the performance of each new design
- The performance and reliability of each new configuration is validated by extensive testing to
- 950,000 total cycles, including 151,000 cycles at temperature, and over 1,000 stalls
- Our elastomer research team uses custom programs with our state-of- the-art Rubber Process
- Analyzer to aid compound development and quality assurance
- Bond retention testing is conducted on each batch of rubber
