FAQs

What information is typically included in a motor spec sheet?

A drilling motor spec sheet provides key parameters such as flow range, speed range, torque slope, maximum differential pressure, maximum torque, stall torque, horsepower, rotor/stator dimensions, elastomer type, and bit connection details. These values help match the motor to well conditions and optimize performance

Differential pressure determines the torque output of the motor. Operating above the recommended pressure may increase short-term torque but significantly reduces stator life. Staying within the optimal differential pressure range ensures efficiency and durability

Elastomers (e.g., HR, XR, XP, NBR, HS88) are chosen based on expected downhole temperature and drilling fluid compatibility. Each elastomer has an optimal temperature window, which is critical to maintaining stator performance and preventing premature failures

Stall torque is the maximum torque generated when the rotor stops turning under load. While it indicates the upper strength of the motor, operating at stall can damage the tool. It’s a limit value not a recommended operating condition

Larger motors (e.g., 9-1/4” with 28,000+ ft-lbs torque) are suited for high-flow, heavy-duty operations, while smaller motors (e.g., 5-3/8”) are better for moderate flow rates and tighter hole sizes. Bend length influences steerability: shorter bit-to-bend sections deliver higher build rates, while longer ones provide smoother lateral drilling
