2.0 MOTOR SELECTION

The handbook specifications are broken into four
sections, each section grouping together mud
lubricated drilling motors of common characteris-
tics. The four sections are as follows:
4 First Edition
Standard Drilling Motors (N Designation) -

These drilling motors use power sections of medi-
um length which provide a wide selection of
speeds, but provide mid-range maximum torque
and horsepower outputs. They work well in appli-
cations where high torque is not required, such as
drilling soft formations, drilling with roller cone
bits, etc. These drilling motors can be identified
with the use of the letter "N" as the last letter
used before the number in the Series Number (ie.
HN1240).
Performance Drilling Motors (E or A

Designation) - These drilling motors use extend-
ed or air power sections and provide a wide selec-
tion of speeds, as well as high values of torque
and horsepower. They are ideal for applications
where high torques are required such as drilling in
hard formations with PDC bits, etc.. These drilling
motors are identified by the letters "E" or "A" as
the last letter before the numbers in the Series
Numbers (ie. LE6754). The "A" designation is
used for motors that have been designed for use
in air drilling, but are also widely used when
drilling with the full ranges of drilling fluids. The
specifications in this handbook indicate the per-
formance of this design of drilling motor with
water.
High Capacity Performance Drilling Motors (E

Designation) - These performance drilling motors
have been optimized for increased flow rates,
rotary speeds, and torque outputs. They are used
in performance drilling applications where above
normal flow rates are desired, such as when
needing to clean a hole better due to increased
penetration rates, as well as applications where
excessive rotary speeds are desired. Similar to
the performance drilling motors, these drilling
motors are identified by the letter "E" as the last
letter before the numbers in the Series Numbers
(ie LE7875)
(1)
ERT™ Performance Drilling Motors (X
Designation) - These are performance drilling
motors that utilize even rubber thickness (ERT™)
technology. Power sections of even rubber thick-
ness typically have twice the efficiency of conven-
tional power sections, and result in drilling motors
that have twice as much torque capability as con-
ventional performance drilling motors. They are
ideal for use with aggressive PDC bits and in
applications where absolute maximum torque is
required, etc.. They are identified by the letter "X"
in the front of the Series Numbers (ie. XME6748).

March 2005 5
In addition to the above, PrecisionDrillTM drilling

motors have designations indicating speed
ranges. These designations are the first letter of
the Series Number (I.e. LN7830), except in the
designations of the ERT™ Performance Drilling
Motors, where they are the second letter (I.e.
XMN4536). The designations used are as fol-
lows:
H - High Speed
M - Medium Speed
L - Low Speed
3.0 COMPONENTS
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors consist of several
major assemblies:
z Dump Sub Assembly
z Power Section
z Drive Assembly
z Adjustable Assembly
z Mud Lubricated Bearing Section
3.1 DUMP SUB ASSEMBLY

As a result of the power section (described
below), the drilling motor will seal off the drill
string ID from the annulus. In order to prevent wet
trips and pressure problems, a dump sub assem-
bly can be utilized. The dump sub assembly is a
hydraulically actuated valve located at the top of
the drilling motor, which allows the drill string to
fill when running in hole and drain when tripping
out of hole. When the pumps are engaged, the
valve automatically closes and directs all drilling
fluid flow through the motor.
In the event that the dump sub assembly is not
required or desired, such as in underbalanced
drilling using nitrogen gas or air, it’s effect can be
negated by simply replacing the discharge plugs
with blank plugs (4 3/4” and larger). This allows
the motor to be adjusted as necessary, even in
the field. In all cases, the dump subs may be
replaced with top subs if desired.
3.2 CONVENTIONAL POWER SECTION

The PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor power section is
an adaptation of the Moineau(2) type positive dis-
placement hydraulic pump in a reversed applica-
tion. It essentially converts hydraulic power from
the drilling fluid into mechanical power to drive
the bit.
(2)
Inventor of the Progressive Cavity Pump
6 First Edition
The power section is comprised of two compo-

nents; the stator and the rotor. The stator consists
of a steel tube containing a bonded elastomer
insert with a lobed, helical pattern bore through
the center. The rotor is a lobed, helical steel rod.
When the rotor is installed into the stator, the
combination of the helical shapes and lobes form
sealed flow cavities between the two compo-
nents. When drilling fluid is forced through the
power section, the pressure drop across the cavi-
ties will cause the rotor to turn inside the stator.
This is how the drilling motor is powered.
It is the pattern of the lobes and the length of the
helix that dictate what output characteristics will
be developed by the power section. By the nature
of the design, the stator always has one more
lobe than the rotor. The illustrations in Figure 1
show a 1:2 lobe cross-section, a 4:5 lobe cross-
section and a 7:8 lobe cross-section. Generally, as
the lobe ratio is increased, speed of rotation is
decreased.
The second control on power section output char-
acteristics is length. A stage is defined as a full
helical rotation of the lobed stator. Therefore,
power sections may be classified in stages. A four
stage power section contains one more full rota-
tion to the stator elastomer, when compared to a
three stage. With more stages, the power section
is capable of greater overall pressure differential,
which in turn provides more torque to the rotor.
As mentioned, these two design characteristics
can be used to control the output characteristics
of any size of power section. This allows for the
modular design of PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors,
making it possible to simply replace power sec-
tions when different output characteristics are
required.
In addition, the variation of dimensions and mate-
rials will allow for specialized drilling conditions.
With increased temperatures or certain drilling
fluids, the stator elastomer will expand and form
a tighter seal onto the rotor and create more of an
interference fit, which may result in stator elas-
tomer damage. PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors are
available when requested with stators that take
these conditions into account. This will result in
minimal loss in performance for PrecisionDrillTM
drilling motors used in these specialized condi-
tions.
3.3 PREMIUM NITRILE POWER SECTION

Further improvements to elastomer technology
has provided the ability to improve the perform-
ance characteristics of all power sections by over
30%. This next generation nitrile is described as
premium nitrile, and is affected by oil based fluids
and temperature to lesser degrees than previous
generations of elastomers. It is capable of han-
dling greater pressure drops and therefore is able
to create more output torque without increased
length. This premium nitrile is available in nearly
all conventional designs.
March 2005 7
3.4 ERTTM PERFORMANCE POWER SECTION

The next generation of performance drilling
motors utilize ERT™ power section technology. As
shown in Figure 2, the cross-section profile of the
rotor and stator are the same as conventional
power sections and operate in the same way as
described in 3.2 above. However, the ERT™ sta-
tor is designed differently. The steel tube of the
stator is manufactured with a spiraled lobed pro-
file machined through. A thin layer of elastomer
is applied to the inside of this lobed profile, hence
the name even rubber thickness (ERT™). When
the rotor is inserted into the stator, the thin layer
of rubber provides the flexible seal for the flow
cavities of the power section, while the steel
behind the rubber provides a fixed support. This
design configuration results in several perform-
ance benefits;
· Increased torque Capacity (double the efficiency
of conventional power sections)
· Reduced affects from rubber swell (constant
change in rubber thickness due to temperature,
or fluid exposure, over a thinner cross-section)
· Stronger stator housing tube (stator is manufac-
tured from one piece of material)
(ERTTM is a trademark of R&M Energy Systems.)
3.5 DRIVE ASSEMBLY

Due to the design nature of the power section,
there is an eccentric rotation of the rotor inside
the stator. To compensate for this eccentric
motion and convert it to a purely concentric rota-
tion, PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors utilize a high
strength jointed drive assembly. The drive assem-
bly consists of a drive shaft with a sealed and
lubricated drive joint located at each end. The
drive joints are designed to withstand the high
torque values delivered by the power section
while creating minimal stress through the drive
assembly components for extended life and
increased reliability. The drive assembly also pro-
vides a point in the drive line that will compensate
for the bend in the drilling motor required for
directional control.
3.6 ADJUSTABLE ASSEMBLY

All PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors are supplied
with a surface adjustable assembly. The
adjustable assembly can be set from zero to two
or three degrees in varying increments in the
field. This durable design results in wide range of
potential build rates used in directional, horizon-
tal and re-entry wells. Also, to minimize the wear
to the adjustable components, the adjustable ring
has an integrated wear pad that orients to the low
side of the bend.
8 First Edition
3.7 MUD LUBRICATED BEARING SECTION

The bearing section contains the radial and thrust
bearings that transmit the axial and radial loads
from the bit to the drill string, while providing a
drive line that allows the power section to rotate
the bit. Mud lubricated bearing sections allow a
limited portion of the drilling fluid to be pumped
down through the drilling motor to be bypassed
through the bearings, providing lubrication and
cooling. The drilling fluid bypassing through the
bearing section exits directly above the bit box
and rejoins the primary flow to help clean the
hole.
3.8 STABILIZATION
Bearing housings are available with screw-on
style stabilization. The screw-on style provides the
option of installing a threaded stabilizer sleeve
onto the drilling motor on the rig floor in a matter
of minutes. The drilling motor has a thread on the
bottom end that is covered with a thread protec-
tor sleeve when not required. Screw-on style bear-
ing housings are the standard housings supplied.
3.9 KICK PADS

Eccentric kick pads can also be used on
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors ranging from
4 3/4” (121 mm) to 9 5/8” (244 mm) in size. This
kick pad is adjustable to match the low side of the
motor to increase build rate capabilities. It will
also allow lower adjustable settings for similar
build rates, thereby reducing radial stresses
applied to the bearing assembly, and permit safer
rotation of the motor. They can be installed in the
field by screwing them onto specially adapted
bearing housings.
3.10 ROTOR CATCHES

PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors also come avail-
able with a rotor catch mechanism. In the event
that a connection backs-off or twists-off, this
safety device will prevent any part of the drilling
motor from being left in the hole. The catch man-
drel is connected to the drilling motor rotor, and
will catch on the inside of the top-most sub of the
drilling motor, ensuring that when the bottom hole
assembly is pulled out of hole it will bring the rest
of the drilling motor with it.

4.0 APPLICATIONS
The versatility and variety of PrecisionDrillTM
drilling motor allows it to be used in several dif-
ferent downhole applications. As the variety of
designs expand, the applications that
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors can operate in will
also grow.
4.1 PERFORMANCE DRILLING

PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors can be used for
performance drilling. The wide variety of torque,
speed, and flow rate capabilities of the drilling
motors lend themselves easily to a wide range of
bit types and formation conditions. Rotary drilling
can also be applied in addition to rotation from
the drilling motor for increased bit speed as
required. Power is provided directly at the bit,
reducing wear and stress to drill string compo-
nents, and increasing component life substantial-
ly.
10 First Edition
4.2 DIRECTIONAL DRILLING

Directional drilling began as a remedial operation
to solve a drilling problem; usually a fish or junk
left in the hole. Today, with the creation of tighter
legal spacing requirements, better reservoir engi-
neering modeling, and the drilling of multiple
wells from a single surface location, it has
become very important to both control the well-
bore position during drilling and to relate to the
position of existing wellbores to lease boundaries
and other wells.
The most obvious application for directional
drilling is for areas inaccessible to conventional
vertical drilling techniques. When drilling into
reservoirs under mountains, water, cities, or envi-
ronmentally sensitive areas, wells can be direc-
tionally controlled to hit the required target. When
the reservoir is near problematic formations (ie.
salt formations, steep fault planes, etc.) direction-
al drilling techniques can be used to avoid them
and minimize their effect on drilling and recovery
processes.
Another capability with directional drilling is the
drilling of multiple wells from a single point. This
is valuable in the case of offshore drilling rigs
which require a significant investment in time and
money. Multiple wells can be drilled from a single
point to various targets for optimized recovery,
reducing drilling rig time and costs.
Directional drilling can also be used to drill relief
wells. In situations where a well becomes uncon-
trolled, a relief well can be drilled to intersect the
original wellbore. Heavy mud can then be
pumped down the relief well to “kill” the blowout
well.
4.3 HORIZONTAL DRILLING/WELL RE-ENTRY

In certain reservoirs, recovery can be dramatical-
ly improved by directionally drilling a well horizon-
tally (over eighty degrees inclination) for an
extended length. Greater reservoir exposure
allows for higher production rates at equivalent
drawdowns.
Typically, the build section of the well is drilled
with a larger drilling motor and casing is run to the
start of the horizontal section. This casing string
ensures wellbore integrity as the horizontal sec-
tion is drilled. The build section can be drilled in
varying rates from long radius to short radius. The
build rate is dependent on the hole conditions,
required horizontal dimensions, and well eco-
nomics.
March 2005 11
A smaller drilling motor is then used to drill the

horizontal component of the well. If the horizontal
component of the well is to be straight, it is rec-
ommended that the smaller drilling motor be set
at a slight angle for the horizontal and then rotat-
ed to maintain wellbore inclination. If any adjust-
ments need to be made, the bend in the drilling
motor can be used to correct the wellbore trajec-
tory. Higher motor settings have been used to
drill, allowing aggressive turns in the lateral.
However,they result in higher loads on the drilling
components and sharper changes in the horizon-
tal trajectory, which is undesirable.
An extension of horizontal drilling is the drilling of
multilateral wells. Multilateral wells have more
than one horizontal wellbore emanating from a
single wellbore. This can be in the form of several
horizontal wells fanning out radially from a single
vertical well. The horizontal wells can be on the
same vertical plane, or be strategically placed at
different planes for multiple reservoirs. A second
method is to sidetrack from an existing horizontal
well for penetration into other areas in the reser-
voir for further recovery.
In addition, the above techniques can be used to
perform well re-entry. Existing wells are regularly
re-entered for further reservoir recovery.
Sidetracking can be performed from both build
section and horizontal section of the existing well
to penetrate into areas not drained with the origi-
nal well.
4.4 AIR/MISTED DRILLING

Compressible fluids such as air, nitrogen, natural
gas, etc., can be used in combination with a lubri-
cating fluid.
There are many advantages to drilling with com-
pressible fluids. Better hole cleaning occurs, as
well as increased penetration rates and reduced
rig time and costs. Lost circulation problems are
eliminated, formation damage is limited, and con-
tinual drill stem testing of potential producing for-
mations can be performed.
When operating PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors
with air, extra precautions must be taken to mini-
mize wear and extend drilling motor life. It is rec-
ommended that a lubricating fluid be added to
the system. As stated earlier, the interference
between the rotor and the stator creates small
cavities along their length. As each cavity moves
down the length of the power section from the
rotation of the rotor, the cavity volume remains
the same. However, for there to be a pressure
change in the air as the cavity progresses (which
is required for torque generation), the volume
must also change. Therefore, as the cavity pro-
gresses, the pressure will drop for torque devel-
opment, and the volume of the air will increase.
This increase in air volume results in blow-by of
the power section at the bottom end, which can
potentially damage the stator.
12 First Edition
The purpose of a lubricating fluid is to help lubri-

cate the surfaces between the rotor and stator of
the power section, as well as provide some cooling
assistance to reduce blow-by damage. As the
amount of lubricating fluid is decreased, wear to
the rubber will increase, significantly reducing the
life of the drilling motor.
When operating a PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor
with air, care should be taken not let it run freely
at any time. This will cause the rotor to spin at
rates beyond what it was designed for, wearing it
out prematurely. When starting the drilling motor,
some weight on bit should be applied before flow
is stabilized at the required drilling rate. This will
provide some resistance to the rotor in the stator
and prevent it from over-running. Similarly, when
stopping drilling, some weight on bit should be
maintained until there is no pressure drop across
the drilling motor. Alternatively, the total flow rate
should be reduced when off-bottom to reduce the
RPM and vibration created. Once on-bottom, the
flow can be increased to the required rates. Failing
to follow these practices will cause premature sta-
tor wear, as well as possibly cause an internal joint
to fracture or back-off.
Stalling out the drilling motor can quickly cause
extensive wear to the stator. When stall occurs, the
rotor will seal off with the stator, causing the air
pressure inside the drill string to gradually
increase. When the drilling motor is raised, the
seal between the rotor and stator will give, and the
air will pass through. However, since the pressure
is higher, and the flow rate has increased beyond
the capacity of the power section, the rotor will
spin over allowable limits and the stator will wear
out in a short period of time.
When stalling occurs, it is not easily identifiable
with a pressure increase at surface. As the drilling
medium is compressible, the stall will not be
immediately noticed. Therefore, the ROP should
be used as a gauge for stalling. If the ROP drops
off excessively, it should be considered an indica-
tion that the drilling motor has stalled.
Another concern when using a compressible fluid
to power a drilling motor is explosive decompres-
sion. This is especially the case for nitrogen gas.
When the drilling motor is being operated down-
hole, gases permeate into the rubber compo-
nents. The amount of gases that permeate into
the rubber are increased by higher pressures
being applied and longer periods of use. However,
this initial absorption of gases does not affect
drilling motor performance. Once the drilling
motor is being pulled out of hole, the pressure on
the rubber component is greatly decreased, allow-
ing the gases to expand and coalesce within the
rubber. This creates blistering of the rubber, and
possibly leads to chunking, affecting the integrity
of the drilling motor.
March 2005 13
In wells where the drilling motor is expected to see

pressures above 10,000 kPa (1450 psi), explosive
decompression is possible when pulling out of
hole. To minimize this effect, the rate at which the
drilling motor is pulled out of hole should be
reduced to allow time for the permeated nitrogen
gas to escape from the rubber in the drilling motor
without causing blistering. In wells that may be of
a concern, it is recommended that the drilling
motor be laid down after the first run. Once again,
it is not the pressure on the drilling motor that
causes the explosive decompression, but rather
the rate of pressure drop the rubber is exposed to.
Downhole, the gas is still compressed in the rub-
ber, and does not deform the rubber. Damage
does not occur until the pressure on the rubber is
dropped dramatically by over 10,000 kPa (1450
psi).
When drilling with air, the dump sub assembly dis-
charge ports must be plugged off (or the dump
sub replaced with a top sub). The pressure drop
across the dump sub will not be sufficient enough
to close it under normal air flow rates.
It is recommended that prior to air drilling the
Precision Energy Services Technical Services
department review the well information with mod-
eling to provide a suggested combination of air
flow rate and lubricating fluid flow rate. With all
compressible fluids, the performance of
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors vary greatly with
small differences in these two flow rates. To pro-
vide optimum life and performance characteris-
tics, it is suggested Precision Energy Services pro-
fessional team assist you with flow rates selec-
tion.
4.5 MOTOR PERFORMANCE UNDER

TWO PHASE FLOW
Stator performance of positive displacement
motors (PDM) used on underbalanced drilling
operations is significantly affected by flow rate,
fluid type and lubrication provided by the drilling
fluid. Several performance tests have been con-
ducted on drilling motors under two phase flow
conditions revealing some interesting behavior.
Papers have been published presenting ideas on
how to choose motors through performance indi-
cators or bench testing. These tests and discus-
sions are useful in understanding limitations with
PDMs in two phase flow conditions.
It is important to understand how the perform-
ance of a PDM is affected by two phase flow and
make small changes in operating parameters
when trying to improve performance.
14 First Edition
The following is a list of points to consider when

suspected drilling motor problems occur while
drilling with two phase fluids:
z The higher the gas / liquid ratio (lower liquid
rates) the easier it is to stall the motor even
though the combined equivalent flow rate is at
maximum motor rating. Slippage or blow-by
(onset of stalling) occurs sooner and at lower
differential pressures in two phase flow than
single phase flow.
z Lower liquid rates may cause poor lubrication
resulting in faster wear rates.
z The motor is likely being over run while
circulating the drill string off bottom.
z When on bottom drilling, an increase in the
combined equivalent flow rate of 10% over
maximum recommended may help reduce
stalling problems.
z Allow the weight on bit to “drill off” before
pulling up off bottom.
z Work closely with the operator and
underbalanced drilling engineer to make
small parameter changes.
The torque performance curve of PDMs used in
two phase flow does not change significantly,
except that the maximum predicted differential
pressure cannot be achieved before the motor
stalls thereby a lower maximum torque output.
The following graph (Figure 3) illustrates the typi-
cal performance of a 4-3/4” motor under several
flow conditions but with similar equivalent com-
bined flow rates. Note the significant drop in RPM
at the same differential pressure. This drop in
RPM combined with the reservoir’s production
and the degree of underbalanced achieved (how
much below reservoir pressure), can have a sig-
nificant affect on the rate of penetration.

4.6 SPECIALTY APPLICATIONS

PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors have been used to
drill conduit holes to accommodate pipelines
cable, and other transmission mediums. These
holes are generally drilled to traverse obstacles in
a proposed right of way which present problems
to conventional trenching methods; river cross-
ings, steep or unstable terrain, shore approaches,
or environmentally sensitive areas.
Extraction of water soluble minerals (ie. salt,
potash) can be attained through solution mining
technologies. In this practice, “paired” wells are
drilled to predetermined targets and water is cir-
culated through the holes until communication is
established. Water is then forced down one hole
and allowed to exit through the other with it’s
mineral in solution.
Grout holes can be drilled to stabilize unconsoli-
dated formations or isolate water bearing forma-
tions. Proper placement and control will result in
reduced overall costs and greater technical effi-
ciencies for the procedure.
Methane and water drainage holes have been
common in the mining industry for years. Similar
techniques are being employed in the environ-
mental industry for in situ evacuation of toxic con-
taminants left in industrial and waste disposal
sites.
5.0 PRECISIONDRILLTM
MUD LUBRICATED
DRILLING MOTOR OPERATION
In order to get the best performance and opti-
mum life of PrecisionDrillTM mud lubricated drilling
motors, the following standard procedures should
be followed during operation. Slight variations
may be required with changes in drilling condi-
tions and drilling equipment, but attempts should
be made to follow these procedures as closely as
possible.
5.1 ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE AND SURFACE

CHECK PRIOR TO RUNNING IN HOLE
Although all PrecisionDrillTM mud lubricated
drilling motors are shipped from the shop thor-
oughly inspected and tested, some initial checks
should be completed prior to running in hole.
These surface check procedures should only be
used with mud drilling systems.
CAUTION:To avoid potential bit, motor, and BOP
damage, these preliminary checks
should be completed without a bit
attached. A thread protector should be
installed in the bit box whenever moving
the motor, but must be removed before
flow testing.
16 First Edition
(1) The correct lift sub must always be installed

and used for moving the tool on or off the rig
floor, and for lifting the tool into position for
make-up. Also be sure the connection
between the lift sub and the drilling motor is
tight. To lift the drilling motor to the rig floor,
use a tugger line secured around the lift sub.
Pick up the PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor with
the elevators and set it into the slips of the
rotary table. Install the dog collar / safety
clamps.
NOTE: The lift sub supplied with the drilling
motor should only be used for lifting the
drilling motor. The capacity of the lift
sub is restricted to the weight of the
drilling motor and should not be used
for any other purpose.
NOTE: Only apply rig tongs on the identified
areas of the drilling motor. All connec-
tions of the drilling motor are torqued in
Precision Energy Services’ service shop.
Further make-up on the rig floor is not
necessary, and if attempted may cause
damage.
(2) Remove the lift sub and connect the kelly to
the drilling motor, remove the dog collar /
safety clamp, and lift the drilling motor out of
the slips. Remove the thread protector from
the bit box and inspect the threads for
damage.
(3) Lower the drilling motor until the top end is
below the rotary table. If the drilling motor has
a dump sub, position it so the dump sub ports
are still visible below the rotary table.
CAUTION:The dump sub valve will remain open
until there is enough fluid pressure to
close it. Therefore, the drilling motor
should be lowered until the ports are
below the rotary table. This will prevent
the initial flow of drilling fluid from spray-
ing on the rig floor.
(4) Slowly start the pumps. Ensure drilling fluid is
flowing out of the dump sub ports, if
applicable. Increase the flow rate until the
dump sub ports close, and drilling fluid stops
flowing out. Make note of the circulation rate
and standpipe pressure.
CAUTION:Do not exceed the maximum recom-
mended flow rate for this test.
(5) Lift the drilling motor until the bit box
becomes visible. It should be rotating at a
slow, constant speed. Listen to the bearing
section of the drilling motor for excessive
bearing noise, especially if the tool has been
used previously without being serviced. In
addition, ensure that a portion of drilling fluid
is coming out of the motor directly above the
bit box. Five to ten percent of the total flow
circulating through this point is acceptable.
March 2005 17
(6) If the drilling motor has a dump sub assembly,

before stopping the pumps, the drilling motor
should be lowered below the rotary table.
Ensure that drilling fluid flows out of the dump
sub ports after shutting down the pumps. It is
possible that the dump sub valve may remain
closed after this test due to a pressure lock. If
this occurs, no drilling fluid will flow out of the
ports. To remove the pressure lock, bleed off
some standpipe pressure and the valve will
open.
CAUTION:The surface check should be as short as
possible; it is merely to ensure that the
drilling motor is rotating.
(7) Once flow has been turned off, the thrust
bearing clearance can be checked. First, with
the drilling motor hanging with no weight on
bit, a measurement can be made between the
bottom-most face of the drilling motor
housings and the top edge of the collar on the
bit box. Record this measurement as D1.
Similarly, take the same measurement with
the weight of the motor applied on the bit and
record this value as D2. Subtract D2 from D1
to calculate the amount of axial clearance in
the drilling motor. It must not exceed the
values in Table 6 of Appendix 4.
(8) Radial play in the drilling motor can be
checked by putting a wrench on the bit box
and deflecting it radially - up to 0.040
diametrical movement is acceptable.
(9) After this surface check, the bit should be
attached to the motor using a bit-breaker,
while holding the bit box stationary with a
rotary tong. Be sure to avoid contacting the
end cap directly above the bit box with the
tong dies.
CAUTION:It is recommended that you never hold
the bit box stationary and rotate the
drilling motor counter-clockwise, or hold
the drilling motor stationary and rotate
the bit box clockwise. This could possi-
bly cause the internal drilling motor con-
nections to back off and damage it.
Although rotating in the opposite direc-
tion will result in drilling fluid to be
pushed out the top end, the internal
connections will not be at risk of discon-
necting.
(10) If the drilling motor has been used previously,
an overall inspection should be completed.
General visual inspection of the entire drilling
motor should be carried out to check for
missing oil plugs, housing damage, or loose
connections. Ensure that a “Laydown
Requirements Review” (Appendix 4, or L3-
COM-CA-MOT-F0051) has been completed
and all limitations have been taken into
account. If limitations have been exceeded as
described on the form, the drilling motor
should not be re-run.
18 First Edition
(11) Set the adjustable assembly to the desired

bend. The instructions for this procedure can
be found in the Appendix of this handbook. A
copy is also attached to each motor before it
is sent out from the service shop. The torque
required on the adjustable assembly is also
indicated in the motor specifications.
(12) If a float sub is used, it should be placed
immediately above the drilling motor.
5.2 TRIPPING IN HOLE

Generally, a drill string with a PrecisionDrillTM
drilling motor can be run into the hole like a stan-
dard bottom hole assembly. The drilling motor is
rugged, but care should be taken to control travel
speed while tripping into the hole. The drill string
should be tripped with the blocks unlocked and
special care must be taken when passing the
B.O.P., casing shoe, liner hanger, bridges, and
when nearing bottom. Tight spots should be tra-
versed by starting the pumps and slowly reaming
the drilling motor through. When reaming, the drill
string should be periodically rotated to prevent
sidetracking.
When tripping to extreme depths, or when hole
temperatures are high, periodic stops are recom-
mended to break circulation. This prevents bit
plugging and aids in cooling the drilling motor,
preventing high temperature damage.
Fluid should not be circulated through a drilling
motor inside casing if a PDC or diamond bit is
being used, as this may damage the bit cutters.
If a dump sub assembly is not used and the pipe
is not being filled while tripping in, the back pres-
sure on the power section will cause the rotor to
turn in reverse. This could cause internal connec-
tions of the drilling motor to unscrew.
CAUTION: Stop and break circulation before
putting drilling motor on-bottom. Failure
to do so could plug jets and/or damage
the drilling motor.
5.3 DRILLING
When the assembly has been tripped to the bot-
tom of the hole, PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors
should be operated in the following manner:
(1) With the bit 1-2 meters (3-6 feet) off bottom,
start the pumps and slowly increase the flow
rate to that desired for drilling. Do not exceed
the maximum rated flow rate for the
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor.
(2) Make a note of the flow rate and the total
pump pressure. Note that the pressure may
exceed the calculated off bottom pressure
due to some side load effects between the bit
and the hole diameter.
March 2005 19
(3) After a short cleaning interval, lower the bit

carefully to bottom and slowly increase the
weight. Note that torque can be affected by a
dirty, uncirculated hole and the hole should be
adequately cleaned prior to orienting the tool.
Fill may be cleaned out of the well bore by
slowly rotating the drilling motor or by staging
the drilling motor full circle 30° to 45° at a
time. This prevents ledge buildup and side
tracking.
(4) Orient the drill string as desired and slowly
apply further weight onto the bit. Pump
pressure will rise as the weight on bit is
increased. Note the change in system
pressure between the off bottom and on
bottom values. This will be the differential
pressure. Try to drill with steady pump
pressure by keeping a steady flow rate and
constant weight on bit.
NOTE: Adding weight on bit will cause both the
differential pressure and torque to
increase. Similarly, reducing weight on
bit will reduce both the differential pres-
sure and the torque. Therefore, the rig
pressure gauge enables the operator to
monitor how the drilling motor is per-
forming, as does the weight on bit indi-
cator.
CAUTION:Applying excessive weight on bit may
cause damage to the thrust bearings.
Similarly, applying excessive tension
while stuck may cause damage to the
thrust bearings. Please refer to the
specifications for the recommended
maximum loads for these conditions.
CAUTION:Do not exceed the maximum recom-
mended differential pressure as listed
in the specifications. Failure to do so
could result in premature wear or dam-
age to the drilling motor stator.
NOTE: Optimum differential pressure can be
determined by monitoring motor per-
formance, penetration rate, and drilling
requirements. Also, maintaining a con-
stant weight on bit and differential pres-
sure assists in controlling orientation of
the drill string.
5.4 REACTIVE TORQUE

A PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor drives the bit with
a right-hand (clockwise) rotation. As weight is
added to the bit, reactive torque acting on the
drilling motor housing is developed. This left-hand
(counter-clockwise) torque is transferred to the
drill string and may cause the joints above the
motor to tighten. Reactions of this type increase
with larger weight on bit values and reach a max-
imum when the motor stalls. This reactive torque
also affects the orientation of the motor when it is
used in directional drilling applications.
Therefore, this reactive torque must be taken into
account when orienting the drilling motor from
the surface in the desired direction.
20 First Edition
5.5 DRILLING MOTOR STALL

Stalling usually occurs when the application of
excessive weight on bit or hole sloughing stops
the bit from rotating, and the power section of the
drilling motor is not capable of providing enough
torque to power through. This is indicated by a
sudden sharp increase in pump pressure. This
pressure increase is developed because the rotor
is no longer able to rotate inside the stator, form-
ing a long seal between the two. If circulation is
continued, the drilling fluid forces it’s way through
the power section by deflecting the stator rubber.
Drilling fluid will still circulate through the motor
but the bit will not turn. Operating in this state will
erode and possibly chunk the stator in a very
short period of time, resulting in extensive dam-
age. It is very important to avoid this operating
condition.
When stalling occurs, corrective action must be
taken immediately. Any rotary application should
be stopped, and built up drill string torque
released. Then the weight on bit can be reduced
allowing the drill bit to come loose and the drilling
motor to turn freely. If the pump pressure is still
high, the pumps should then be turned off. Once
again, failure to do this will result in the stator
eroding until the drilling motor is inoperable.
5.6 BIT CONDITIONS

The bit speeds developed when drilling with a
drilling motor are normally higher than in conven-
tional rotary drilling. This application tends to
accelerate bit wear. When drilling with a drilling
motor and simultaneously rotating the drill string,
it is important to avoid locking up the bit and over
running the drilling motor with the rotary table. A
locked bit will impart a sudden torque increase in
the drilling motor which can be detected by a sud-
den sharp increase in standpipe pressure. If this
occurs, disengage the rotary table and reduce the
flow rate. Backlash may occur from reactive
torque distributed in the drill string as described
in the section above. Failure to react in this situa-
tion may cause drilling motor damage.
5.7 ROTATING THE DRILLING MOTOR

For directional control, it is sometimes necessary
to rotate a drilling motor that has the adjustable
assembly set for a deviation angle. Rotating the
drilling motor set at excessive bends may fatigue
the housings of the drilling motor to a point where
a fatigue crack is initiated, and fracture occurs or
overload the radial bearing support and create
excessive bearing wear. Therefore, Precision
Energy Services has provided maximum dogleg
limits for rotary drilling based on the bend angle,
hole size, and stabilization. These limits are pro-
vided in tables within the motor specifications.
These limits are based on maximum rotary
speeds of 60 RPM. For higher speed rotary limits,
please contact your Precision Energy Services
representative.

5.8 TRIPPING OUT

Prior to tripping out when drilling with convention-
al mud, it is recommended that the fluid be circu-
lated for at least one “bottoms-up” time to ensure
that the well-bore has been cleaned thoroughly.
The tripping out procedures for a PrecisionDrillTM
drilling motor are basically the same as those for
tripping in. Taking care when pulling the drilling
motor through tight spots, liner hangers, casing,
casing shoes, and the B.O.P. is necessary to min-
imize possible damage to both the drilling motor
and the wellhead components. Rotating may also
be done to assist with the removal of the drill
string. The dump sub valve will allow the drill
string to be emptied automatically when tripping.
Although the drill string will drain when tripping
out, the drilling motor itself may not. Once the
drilling motor is at surface, rotating the bit box in
a counter-clockwise direction will naturally drain
the drilling motor through the top. This is recom-
mended before laying down a PrecisionDrillTM
drilling motor since aggressive drilling fluids can
deteriorate the elastomer stator and seals. Fresh
water should also be flushed through to ensure
thorough cleaning of the drilling motor. Also, clean
the bit box area with clean water and install a
thread protector into the box connection.
NOTE: Rotating the bit box in a clockwise direc-
tion will naturally drain the drilling motor
through the bottom, but one of the
internal connections may break and
unscrew. For this reason, it is not rec-
ommended to rotate it in this manner.
5.9 SURFACE CHECKS AFTER RUNNING IN HOLE

Before laying down a PrecisionDrillTM mud lubri-
cated drilling motor, it should be inspected in the
event that it is required again before servicing -
essentially, the inspection procedures followed in
Section 5.1 can be repeated, with attention paid
to dump sub functionality, bit box rotation, fluid
bypass rate above the bit box, and axial and radi-
al movement of the bottom end of the drilling
motor. If there are any concerns with the drilling
motor, it should be laid down for servicing.
In addition, a mud lubricated drilling motor
Laydown Requirements review should be per-
formed in case the drilling motor is going to be re-
run. This review (Appendix 4 or L3-COM-CA-MOT-
F0051) takes into account any environment the
drilling motor has been run in and evaluates the
risks involved with its usage. This form is available
from your Precision Energy Services representa-
tive.
22 First Edition
6.0 DRILLING FLUIDS

The PrecisionDrillTM drilling motor is designed to
operate effectively with practically all types of
drilling fluids. Successful runs have been
achieved with fresh or salt water, with oil based
fluids, with additives for viscosity control or lost
circulation, and with nitrogen gas. However, some
consideration should be taken when selecting a
drilling fluid, as elastomer components of the
drilling motor are susceptible to premature wear
when exposed to certain fluids.
Hydrocarbon based drilling fluids can be very
harmful to elastomers. A measure of this aggres-
siveness is called the Aniline Point, which is the
temperature at which equal amounts of the
hydrocarbon and aniline become miscible. This
temperature is an indication of the percent of
light ends (aromatics) present in the hydrocarbon.
It is recommended that the aniline point of any
drilling fluid not be lower than 94.5°C (200°F).
Also, it is strongly recommended that the operat-
ing temperature of the fluid be lower than the ani-
line point. Operating outside these parameters
tends to excessively swell elastomers and cause
premature wear, thus reducing motor perform-
ance. The use of stators that compensate for
elastomer swelling in hydrocarbon-based fluids is
recommended. These special order drilling
motors may be requested with sufficient notice.
For any information regarding availability or deliv-
ery, please contact your Precision Energy
Services representative.
Drilling fluids with high chloride content can
cause significant damage to internal compo-
nents. When these components become dam-
aged, the drilling motor’s performance is dramat-
ically reduced.
Typical lost circulation materials such as calcium
carbonates, walnut shells, cellophane flakes and
cellulose fiber (among others) can be used safely
with PrecisionDrillTM mud lubricated drilling
motors. However, a few considerations must be
made when doing so. Generally, the particle size
should be no greater than 1/8” for 4-3/4” and 5”
drilling motors, and 1/4” for 6-1/4” and larger
drilling motors. Larger particle sizes will have a
tendency to start plugging up port nozzles in the
drilling motor and lead to circulation problems.
For the same reason, the mud density should also
be no greater than 19 lbs/gallon. Finally, in order
to ensure avoiding plugging of the system, the
lost circulation material should be added slowly,
away from the pump intake. A pre-mix system
would be the preferred means of usage. If there
are any concerns in regard to these values,
please contact your Precision Energy Services
representative.
March 2005 23
The percentage of solids should be kept to a min-

imum. Large amounts of abrasive solids in the
drilling fluid will drastically increase the wear on a
stator. It is recommended that the solids content
be kept below 5% for acceptable operational life.
Similarly, it is recommended that fine abrasives
such as sand be kept lower than 0.5% as they are
extremely damaging to the stator elastomer.
For the above reasons, it is extremely important
to flush the drilling motor with fresh water before
laying it down, especially when working with the
types of drilling fluids previously described.
Failure to do so will allow the drilling fluid to fur-
ther seriously deteriorate components long after
the drilling motor has been operated.
7.0 TEMPERATURE LIMITS

The temperature limits of PrecisionDrillTM drilling
motors again depend on the effect of different flu-
ids and temperatures on the components made
of elastomers. Generally, standard drilling motors
are rated for temperatures up to 105°C (219°F).
At temperatures above this, the performance
characteristics of elastomers are changed, result-
ing in reduced life expectancy. When exposed to
higher temperatures, the elastomers swell and
create more interference than desired, wearing
the parts out prematurely. The strength of the
elastomers is also affected.
To compensate for these elastomer changes, spe-
cial materials and special sizes of components
are used. These unique drilling motors are specif-
ically assembled for high temperatures, and may
be operated in temperatures up to 150°C
(300°F) and higher. They may be requested with
sufficient notice. For any information regarding
availability or delivery, please contact your
Precision Energy Services representative.
It should be noted that a PrecisionDrillTM drilling
motor manufactured for hot hole conditions will
not perform as indicated in these specifications
in lower temperatures. The rubber in the stator is
specially selected for more clearance at higher
temperatures to minimize interference.
Therefore, at lower temperatures, the stator elas-
tomer will not seal adequately on the rotor, and
fluid bypass will occur. It is important that the
drilling motor be used in the conditions it is
designed for in order to operate as required.

8.0 TROUBLESHOOTING DOWNHOLE

Careful attention to variations in fluid pressure
can identify many common downhole problems.
In many cases, corrective measures may save a
costly trip. Following are symptoms that are some-
times experienced during drilling, in conjunction
with some of their possible causes in reference to
PrecisionDrillTM drilling motors. Also listed are
measures that can be taken to correct the prob-
lem and continue drilling.
NOTE: Any time there are problems incurred
while drilling, it is strongly suggested
that all possible surface problems are
identified and corrected before assum-
ing the problem is related to the down-
hole equipment. This will minimize any
trip time for pulling out the downhole
equipment unnecessarily.
8.1 WITH BIT OFF BOTTOM

(1) Circulation pressure is lower than calculated.
A. Dump Sub Valve Stuck Open - Turn flow
rate on and off in an attempt to shut the
valve. Use varying flow rates. Also, the drill
string can be stroked one stand long to
help loosen the valve. If unable to close
the dump sub valve, it may be necessary
to pull out of hole.
B. String Washout - Normal drill string
washout procedures apply.
C. Lost Circulation - Normal lost circulation
procedures apply.
(2) Circulation pressure is higher than calculated.
A. Drilling Motor or Bit Plugged - This usually
coincides with little or no circulation. Once
all hydraulic systems have been checked
and verified, it may be necessary to pull
out of hole.
B. Excessive bit side loading due to under
gauge hole or high adjustable assembly
bend angle - This usually coincides with
full circulation. If the drilling motor is too
tight against the wall of the wellbore, the
bit may start sidetracking. Corrective
measures include drilling a kelly down to
reduce side loading, or reducing the bend
angle on the drilling motor. If sidetracking
is a concern, the drilling motor should be
run with a lower flow rate to prevent it.

8.2 WITH BIT ON BOTTOM

(1) Circulation pressure is lower than calculated.
A. Dump Sub Valve Stuck Open - Turn flow
rate on and off in an attempt to shut the
valve. Use varying flow rates. Also, the drill
string can be stroked one stand long to
help loosen the valve. If unable to close
the dump sub valve, it may be necessary
to pull out of hole.
B. String Washout - Normal drill string
washout procedures apply.
C. Lost Circulation - Normal lost circulation
procedures apply.
D. Worn or Damaged Stator - With certain
drilling fluids, stators may wear prema-
turely, resulting in noticeable weakening
over it’s usage. As the stator wears, the
speed of the drilling motor will be
reduced. Therefore, indications of a worn
stator will be a drop in the ROP, or an
increase in the differential pressure
required to produce the same ROP.
E. Gas Kick - Normal gas kick procedures
apply.
(2) Circulation pressure is higher than calculated.
A. Drilling Motor or Bit Plugged - This usually
coincides with little or no circulation.
Remove the weight on bit, allow the bit to
drill off, and then stop the pumps. If the
pressure remains high, it is possible that
the drilling motor or all bit jets are
plugged. Once all hydraulic systems have
been checked and verified, it may be nec-
essary to pull out of hole.
B. Excessive bit side loading due to under
gauge hole or high adjustable assembly
bend angle - This usually coincides with
full circulation. If the drilling motor is too
tight against the wall of the wellbore, the
drilling motor may be working too hard
and the torque requirement will be greater
than the recommended value for the
drilling motor size. Corrective measures
include reducing weight on bit or reducing
the bend angle in the drilling motor.
C. Drilling Motor Stalled or Stalling - Usually
coincides with pressure increase. Rotary
application should be stopped and any
built up string torque slowly released. The
weight on bit can then be reduced allow-
ing the drill bit to come loose and the
drilling motor to turn freely. If the pump
pressure is still high, the pumps should be
turned off. These steps must be followed
in close succession to reduce potential
stator damage.
D. Mud Rings - These occur when cuttings
accumulate around tool joints. They cause
the string to stick and prevent sliding. Use
standard mud treatment procedures.
26 First Edition
(3) Change or Loss of rate of penetration.

A. Drilling Motor Stalled - Usually coincides
with pressure increase. Rotary application
should be stopped and any built up string
torque slowly released. The weight on bit
can then be reduced allowing the drill bit
to come loose and the drilling motor to
turn freely. If the pump pressure is still
high, the pumps should be turned off.
These steps must be followed in close suc-
cession to reduce potential stator dam-
age.
B. Worn Stator - Refer to worn stator info
under ‘Circulation pressure is lower than
calculated’ above.
C. Change of Formation - Adjust the flow rate
and weight on bit to optimize drilling per-
formance for the new formation condi-
tions.
D. Drill String / Stabilizers Hung Up - Normal
corrective procedures apply.
E. Bit Worn or Balling - Normal bit wear or
balling procedures apply.
9.0 DRILLING MOTOR

SPECIFICATIONS
DIMENSIONAL DATA
Typical dimensions including length to bend, over-
all length, length to upsets, as well as maximum
outer diameters for various padding arrange-
ments. Also included are the wellbore diameters
that the drilling motors are recommended for, top
and bottom connection specifications and total
weight.
ESTIMATED BUILD RATES

A table is given correlating the adjustable bend
setting and common wellbore diameters for both
slick and fully stabilized drilling motors with an
estimated build rate. One Stabilizer refers to a
BHA with a single screw-on stabilizer below the
bend in the drilling motor. Two stabilizers refers to
a BHA with stabilizers below the bend and direct-
ly above the drilling motor. All values are based on
stabilizers 1/8” (3mm) undergauge. However, as
conditions vary downhole, these estimates may
be inaccurate for some wells. Caution should be
used when referring to these values, as experi-
ence with certain formations will allow for a more
informed estimate of the expected build rate. In
addition, the torque required for the adjustable
assembly is given.

MAXIMUM DOGLEG FOR ROTARY DRILLING

This table provides the maximum recommended
doglegs to rotate in for selected angle settings,
hole sizes, and stabilization. Exceeding these val-
ues will result in accelerated component fatigue
and excessive bearing loading. These limits are
based on a maximum rotary speed limit of 60
RPM.
PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS
Listed here are the performance specifications of
the drilling motor, including minimum and maxi-
mum flow rate capacities, and no-load RPM / flow
unit values. Minimum and maximum bit speed at
full load differential pressure are also stated.
(Full load differential pressure is defined as the
maximum differential pressure the drilling motor
is capable of operating under with acceptable
wear rates and life expectancy.) Also in the speci-
fication is the maximum torque capacity that cor-
relates with the full load differential pressure of
the minimum specified flow rate. The maximum
power is calculated from the maximum bit speed
and the maximum torque for the full load differ-
ential pressure for the maximum flow rate speci-
fied. Maximum values for torque and power for
standard and premium nitriles are both shown.
The maximum allowable bit pressure drop is
given. If this value is exceeded, premature wear
may occur to the bearing assembly. Also, the no-
load pressure drop on the drilling motor based on
water (at room temperature) being the drilling
fluid and maximum flow rate is given. This value
will vary when these conditions are different.
LOAD CAPACITIES
The operating load capacities are the maximum
loads that can be applied to the drilling motor
when it is being circulated through, and still allow
continued use. Similarly, the static load capaci-
ties are the maximum loads that can be applied
when the drilling motor is not being circulated
through, and still allow continued use. The ulti-
mate load factors are the loads that must not be
exceeded, otherwise excessive damage will occur.
PERFORMANCE CHARTS
Charts for both metric and imperial units are
shown to provide operational characteristics over
the full range of flow rates and differential pres-
sures for the drilling motor. Each chart is actually
two charts laid over each other. The two compo-
nents of each chart are described below, as well
as instructions in how to read them.
28 First Edition
RPM
The first component of the chart is the RPM line.
Across the bottom of the chart is differential pres-
sure (kPa/psi). The differential pressure is the dif-
ference between the system pressure when the
drilling motor is on-bottom (loaded) and off-bot-
tom (not loaded). On the left side of the chart is
the speed (RPM). These are the scales to be used
when using the horizontal RPM lines on the chart.
The horizontal lines start at the speed axis of the
chart and begin to drop off slightly as differential
pressure increases. They eventually end some-
where past the full load lines (vertical lines).
These RPM lines are usually laid out as two sets
of three lines, each for a different specified flow
rate. The specified flow rates can be seen slightly
above the lines.
The light colored RPM lines are for Standard
Nitrile Motors and end shortly past the Standard
Nitrile Full Load line.
The dark colored RPM lines are for Premium
Nitrile Motors and end shortly past the Premium
Nitrile Full Load line.
The RPM lines are used to determine what the
drilling motor RPM is, knowing what the flow rate
and differential pressure are. Using the chart in
Figure 4 for a 6 3/4” (171 mm) PrecisionDrillTM
LE6754-ML drilling motor, if the flow rate is 450
GPM (1.71 m3/min) and the differential pressure
is 500 psi (3450 kPa), for a standard nitrile
drilling motor (light colored RPM line) the speed
of the drilling motor would be approximately 117
RPM. For flow rates different than the ones given
on the chart, lines can be interpolated between
the lines, then the RPM can be read.
The chart shows what happens to the speed of
the drilling motor as differential pressure is
increased. For the most part, the drop in RPM as
differential pressure increases is slight until the
full load line is crossed. At that point the RPM
drops quickly to zero, which is stall mode.
Therefore, it is important to not go beyond the
maximum recommended operating differential
pressure, or the drilling motor will be operating
inefficiently and wear will occur.
In addition, it can be seen that as differential
pressure is increased, the standard nitrile RPM
lines drop off faster than the premium nitrile
lines. This indicates that the premium nitrile
drilling motors would hold their RPM better than
standard nitrile drilling motors.
March 2005 29
TORQUE
The second component of the chart is the torque
line. On the right side of the chart is the torque
scale (ft-lbs, N-m). The torque line is used with
this scale and the differential pressure scale
across the bottom. The torque line starts at 0 dif-
ferential pressure and 0 torque, and increases
linearly as differential pressure increases. The
same torque line is used for the various flow rates
because torque is independent of flow rate. This
torque line is the same for both standard and pre-
mium nitrile drilling motors.
The torque output of the drilling motor can be
determined by knowing the differential pressure
across the drilling motor. Using the chart in
Figure 3, if the differential pressure is 500 psi
(3450 kPa), the output torque from the drilling
motor is approximately 4800 ft-lbs (6500 N-m).
FULL LOAD
The full load lines indicate the maximum recom-
mended operating differential pressures of the
drilling motor. If the differential pressure goes
beyond these maximum values, the operating life
of the stator will be reduced. Excessive pressure
drop across the rotor and stator will cause pre-
mature pressure wash or chunking, and impair
performance.
Premium nitrile is capable of higher pressure
drops than standard nitrile, so the maximum
allowable pressure drop across one is more than
the maximum allowable pressure drop across a
standard nitrile drilling motor. As seen in Figure 4,
the standard nitrile drilling motor is only rated for
650 psi differential pressure, whereas the premi-
um nitrile drilling motor allows 860 psi differential
perssure. This extra differential pressure equates
to an increase in torque output.

SETTING THE ADJUSTABLE HOUSING
1. Break tool below adjustable ring by placing rig floor tongs
at adjustable bent sub and the stator housing adaptor.
* NOW USE CHAIN TONGS ONLY.
2. Hold tool with chain tongs at stator housing adaptor and
back off adjustable bent sub with chain tongs until stator
housing adaptor box face is 1/2” above adjustable ring
face. (Steps 1 and 2) * Ensure pins in adjustable ring are
engaged until box face clears shoulder.
3. Slide adjustable ring up until it bottoms on the stator
housing adaptor’s shoulder. Use punch if necessary.
4. Hold tool at adjustable bent sub with chain tongs and
adjust by using chain tongs on adjustable ring. Increase
angle by rotating clockwise looking down from top of tool.
Decrease angle by rotating counter-clockwise. Desired
angle is achieved by aligning the same letter from both
sides. (I.e. If a 1.15 degree adjustable setting is desired
“D” on bent sub and “D” on adjustable ring must be
exactly aligned before the adjustable ring is re-engaged.)
5. Slide adjustable ring down until pins are engaged fully
with adjustable bent sub. * Ensure adjustable ring face
and adjustable bent sub face are in contact before
proceeding.
6. Dope the stator housing adaptor seal face.
7. Hold tool with chain tongs on stator housing adaptor &
turn adjustable ring to stator housing adaptor.
8. Set tool in slips. Torque connection to the value specified
below by placing rig floor tongs at adjustable bent sub and
stator housing adaptor.
9. If using adjustable kick pad, the pad must be oriented to
low side of bend. This can be done by breaking thread
protector sleeve from bearing housing. The adjustable kick
pad can then be slid down, oriented as desired and re-
engaged. The thread protector sleeve is then torqued to
the value as specified in Appendix 1 of this handbook, or
specification L3-COM-CA-MOT-F0050.

Appendix #4
Laydown Requirements Review
PURPOSE
The following document is to be used by field per-
sonnel to evaluate and document the condition of
the mud lubricated drilling motor at surface after
being used downhole. It also is used to decide
whether or not a drilling motor should be rerun in
the hole based on a variety of operational condi-
tions that it was used under.
The two sections below list the different limitations
of the PrecisionDrillTM mud lubricated drilling
motors:
z Mandatory - in all regions, if any of these
limitations is exceeded, the drilling motor
should be laid down.
z Cumulative Limitations - exceeding each
limitation will not require the drilling motor to
be laid down. However, as the number of
exceeded limitations increases, the more likely
the drilling motor should be laid down.
The last section is for reference of what the
required measurements of axial movement based
on tool size will be.
1. MANDATORY LIMITATIONS
If yes for any of these, the motor shall be laid down
and not be reused.
LIMITATION DESCRIPTION YES NO
Temperature Was the drilling motor operated in temperatures over
Limit maximum allowable?
WOB Limit Was the maximum WOB exceeded?
Flow Limit Was the maximum flow rate exceeded?

Appendix #6
Rotor By-Pass Nozzle Instructions
All Precision Energy Services M and L selections
of mud lubricated drilling motors have rotors with
a bore cut through the center to facilitate fluid
flow rates greater than the capacity of the power
section. By using a nozzle on this bore, partial
fluid flow can pass between the rotor and stator
up to the maximum allowable capacity, with the
additional fluid flow going through the rotor.

158 First Edition

At start-up, as fluid flow rate is increased, all fluid
will pass through the rotor. The friction between
the rotor and stator will prevent it from rotating.
EventuaIIy the pressure drop across the rotor noz-
zle will be greater than the pressure drop required
to overcome the frictional losses between the
rotor and the stator, and the drilling motor will
start to rotate. If the correct nozzle has been
selected, once the full flow rate is achieved and
the required pressure differential is achieved, the
drilling motor should have a portion of the flow
approximately equal to its maximum specified
capacity passing between the rotor and the stator.
The remaining portion of the flow will pass
through the rotor. For equilibrium, during all oper-
ations, the pressure drop across the rotor and
stator wiII be equal to the pressure drop across
the rotor nozzle.
Therefore, the drilling motor will operate in the fol-
lowing way. Once full flow rate is achieved, and no
weight has been applied to the bit, excess fluid
flow will pass between the rotor and stator. Once
weight is applied on the bit, the differential on the
rotor and stator will be at the value that the noz-
zle was sized for, splitting the flow as desired.
Therefore, extra precautions should be observed
when working with Precision Energy Services mud
lubricated drilling motors using rotor-by-pass.
Extra care should be taken when not having
weight on bit, and the length of time this occurs
must be minimized. Failing to do so will cause
premature wear and damage to the stator from
excessive flow.
In order to size a nozzle for a specific situation,
three factors are required:
1. Total Required Flow Rate, Qr: This is the total
flow rate of the drilling fluid as required for
proper drilling operation.
2. Required Motor Pressure Drop, P m: The
estimated pressure drop (differential
pressure) of the drilling motor when down-
hole.
3. Mud Weight, MW:
Once these factors are known, the required
nozzle size can be selected in the following
way. First, the flow rate that is to pass through
the rotor nozzle Qn is calculated. To determine
this value, subtract the maximum flow rate
capacity of the size and series Precision
Energy Services mud lubricated drilling motor
to be used from the total required flow rate Qr.
March 2005 159

The nozzle area required for this operation

can then be calculated using the following for-
mula:
An = Qn2 x MW x 106 (Metric)

Pm x 6.496
An = Qn2 x MW (Imperial)
Pm x 10858
The size of nozzle required can then be deter-
mined by looking at the enclosed table for
nozzle sizes in Appendix 12.
The design of the nozzle assemblies vary for
the different sizes of drilling motors, so
instructions for installing each one are
described separately below.
