Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

Performance Drilling

INTRODUCTION
Weatherford 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 by the power section, reducing wear and stress to drill-

CONFIGURATIONS
string components, and increasing component life substantially.

& SELECTION

MOTOR
Directional Drilling
With the creation of tighter legal spacing requirements, better reservoir
engineering modeling, and the drilling of multiple wells from a single sur-
face location, Directional Drilling has become very important to facilitate
collision avoidance relating to the position of existing wellbores, and the

COMPONENTS
avoid lease boundaries. The most obvious application for directional

MOTOR
drilling is for areas inaccessible to conventional vertical drilling tech-
niques. Also, when the reservoir is near problematic formations (i.e. salt
formations, steep fault planes, etc.), directional drilling techniques can
be used to avoid them, minimizing 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

OPERATION
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.

Horizontal Drilling
OPERATIONAL

In certain reservoirs, recovery can be dramatically improved by direc-


MOTOR
LIMITS

tionally drilling a well horizontally (over 80º inclination) for an extended


length. Greater reservoir exposure allows for higher production rates at
equivalent draw downs.
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, ensuring wellbore
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

integrity as the horizontal section is drilled. A smaller drilling motor is


then used to drill the horizontal component of the well.
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 economics. Reference Short-
radius Wells in Section 7.3. Please contact Weatherford’s technical
APPLICATIONS

services department for more details.


SPECIAL

If the horizontal component of the well is to be straight, it is recommend-


ed that the smaller drilling motor be set at a slight angle for the horizontal
and then rotated to maintain wellbore inclination. If any adjustments
need to be made, the bend in the drilling motor can be used to correct
the wellbore trajectory. Higher motor settings have been used to drill,
SPECIFICATIONS

allowing aggressive turns in the lateral. However, they might result in


higher loads on the drilling components and sharper changes in the
horizontal trajectory which is undesirable.

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 9 10/1/2015 3:46:48 PM


Multilateral Wells
INTRODUCTION

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 plane or be strategically placed at different planes
for multiple reservoirs. A second method is to sidetrack from an existing
CONFIGURATIONS

horizontal well for penetration into other areas in the reservoir for further
& SELECTION

recovery.
MOTOR

Re-Entry Wells
With the advent of newer drilling equipment, technology, and expertise,
existing wells are regularly re-entered for further reservoir recovery.
Sidetracking can be performed from both build section and horizontal
COMPONENTS

section of the existing well to penetrate into areas not drained with the
MOTOR

original well.

Rotary Steerable Drilling


Weatherford drilling motors can be used in conjunction with Weatherford's
Revolution™ Rotary Steerable Systems (RSS) to increase drilling per-
OPERATION

formance. In the BHA, the drilling motor is mounted above the rotary
steerable tool to increase bit rotational speed. Increasing bit speed
will increase the ROP while drilling. Additionally, by having the motor
de-couple any torsional loading between the drillstring and the bit, there
is a reduction in the potential for stick/slip to occur while drilling. This
combination has added benefits when compared with a standalone
OPERATIONAL

rotary steerable tool or motor. Reference Motorized Rotary Steerable


MOTOR

LIMITS

Systems (MRSS) in Section 7.2. Please contact a Weatherford technical


services representative for more details.

Underbalanced Drilling
Underbalanced drilling is a form of two phase drilling that typically uses
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

air or nitrogen, and is designed so that the formation pressure is greater


than the system pressure. Although it requires close control of all oper-
ating parameters, many production benefits can be found with underbal-
anced drilling. Techniques will vary depending on the quantity of air or
nitrogen in the system. Extensive pre-planning is required before drilling.
Reference Air Drilling (Two Phase) Applications in Section 7.1. Please
contact Weatherford’s technical services department for more details.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

High Flow Applications


Certain formation conditions and well geometries require higher drilling
fluid flow rates for maximum torque and power outputs, while maintain-
ing optimum hole cleaning. Special drilling motors were designed for
SPECIFICATIONS

such cases to accommodate the additional volume flowing through the


power section. If conventional motors are used under these conditions,
excessive wear, loss of performance, and premature failure are highly
likely to occur. Refer to High Flow (HF) Applications in Section 7.4 for
technical information and HF motors specifications. Please contact
Weatherford’s technical services department for more details.

Applications with At-the-Bit Measurement (ABM™) Technology

INTRODUCTION
Weatherford’s ABM™ system captures real-time, on-the-fly inclination
and azimuthal gamma ray (GR) measurements inches from the bit. This
technology can be used for geosteering in horizontal wellbores, under-
balanced drilling and Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD). Unlike
traditional motor telemetry systems, the ABM™ system – located below
the motor – provides rapid data transfer between the sensors and the

CONFIGURATIONS

& SELECTION
(ABM™) Applications in Section 7.5 for technical information and wired

MOTOR
motors specifications. Please contact Weatherford’s technical services
department for more details.

Other Applications
Weatherford drilling motors have been used to drill conduit holes to

COMPONENTS
accommodate pipelines cable, and other transmission mediums. These

MOTOR
holes are generally drilled to traverse obstacles in a proposed right of
way, which present problems to conventional trenching methods; river
crossings, steep or unstable terrain, shore approaches, or environmen-
tally sensitive areas.
Extraction of water soluble minerals (i.e. salt, potash, etc.) can also be

OPERATION
attained through solution mining technologies. In this practice, “paired”
wells are drilled to predetermined targets and water is circulated through
the holes until communication is established. Water is then forced down
one hole and allowed to exit through the other with its mineral in solution.
Grout holes can be drilled to stabilize unconsolidated formations or
isolate water-bearing formations. Proper placement and control will

procedure.
Methane and water drainage holes have been common in the mining
industry for years. Similar techniques are being employed in the envi-
ronmental industry for in-situ evacuation of toxic contaminants left in

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

3.1 MUD LUBRICATED BEARING SECTION

INTRODUCTION
The bearing section contains the radial and thrust bearings that transmit
the axial and radial loads from the bit to the drillstring while providing a
drive line that allows the power section to rotate the bit. Mud lubricated
bearing sections utilize a limited portion of drilling fluid for 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

CONFIGURATIONS
the hole.

& SELECTION

MOTOR
Bearing housings are available with screw-on style stabilization. This
provides the option of installing a stabilizer sleeve on the rig floor in a
matter of minutes. The drilling motor can also be operated slick through
use of a thread protector sleeve when stabilization is not required.
Screw-on style bearing housings are the standard housings supplied.
IBS Bearing Housings are also available upon request for some con-

COMPONENTS
figurations.

MOTOR
Typically, the lower connection is an API regular bit box, although cus-
tom connections and pin-down options are also available upon request.

3.2 ADJUSTABLE ASSEMBLY


Weatherford drilling motors are supplied with an adjustable assembly

OPERATION
to incur a desired bend in the motor. The adjustable assembly can
be set from zero up to four degrees in varying increments in the field.
Weatherford adjustable assemblies are available in three different types
depending on the drilling motor size and configuration:
• 0º to 2º: 18 small increments
OPERATIONAL

• 0º to 3º: 12 small increments


MOTOR
LIMITS

• 0º to 4º: 16 small increments


This design provides a wide range of potential build rates that meet
requirements for directional, horizontal and re-entry wells. To minimize
the wear to the adjustable components, the adjustable ring has an inte-
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

grated wear pad that orients to the low side of the bend. Refer to Section
4.1 of this Handbook for Adjustable Assembly Operations.

3.3 DRIVE ASSEMBLY


The design of the power section imparts an eccentric rotation of the
rotor inside the stator. To compensate for this eccentric motion and
APPLICATIONS

convert it to a concentric rotation, Weatherford drilling motors utilize a


SPECIAL

high strength jointed drive assembly. The drive assembly 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 delivered by
the power section. The drive assembly also provides a point in the drive
line that will compensate for the bend in the drilling motor required for
SPECIFICATIONS

directional control.
HyperLine™ drilling motors have two drive shaft options available, with
different joint types. The B-drive option uses steel balls to allow the rota-
tion of the shaft. This is an excellent solution for a wide range of torque /
speed requirements, with the additional benefit of easy ball replacement
once they are worn out. The E-Drive design, due to its jointed assembly
and elliptical-shaped fins, produces minimal movement to reduce fatigue
APPENDICES

and mechanical failure, allowing the motor to operate longer and the
joined sections to move together seamlessly.
Note: Titanium Flexible transmission drivelines and hybrid designs are
available upon request for particular applications.

MOTOR

3.4 POWER SECTION


The Weatherford HyperLine™ drilling motor power section is an adapta-
tion of a positive-displacement hydraulic pump in a reversed application.
OPERATION

It converts hydraulic power from the drilling fluid into mechanical power
to drive the bit. The drilling fluid is pumped into the power section at high
pressure, causing the rotor to rotate within the stator.
The power section is comprised of two components: the stator and the
rotor. The stator consists of a steel tube containing a bonded elastomer
insert with a lobed helical pattern bored through the center. The rotor is
OPERATIONAL

a lobed steel rod with a similar helical profile. When the rotor is installed
MOTOR

LIMITS

into the stator, the combination of the helical shapes forms sealed flow
cavities between the two components. When the drilling fluid is forced
through the power section, the pressure drop across the cavities will
cause the rotor to turn inside the stator. This rotation is transmitted by
the drive assembly and bearing mandrel which provides power to the bit.
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

The rotational speed output is proportional to the flow rate pumped and
the geometry of the power section. The higher the flow rate, the faster
the power section rotates. Most HyperLine™ rotors are bored to allow
additional flow to bypass the power section through a nozzle for high
flow applications. Refer to Section 7.4 High Flow Applications for further
details.
APPLICATIONS

As opposed to the rotational speed, the torque output is independent of


SPECIAL

flow rate, but proportional to the differential pressure across the power
section. The torque needed to keep the bit turning increases with the
weight applied to the bit. This results in higher differential pressure
across the power section.
SPECIFICATIONS

Besides operating parameters, the performance characteristics of a


power section are controlled by the following design criteria:
• Lobe configuration
• Number of stages
• Stage length and pitch
APPENDICES

• Power section fit


• Elastomer type

Lobe Configuration

INTRODUCTION
The lobe configuration denotes the number of lobes the rotor and
stator have. The stator always has one more lobe than the rotor. The
illustrations in Figure 5 show 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, and torque output is increased. Weatherford offers power
sections with configurations from 2:3 up to 9:10 to provide the widest

CONFIGURATIONS
range of rotational speed and torque output.

APPLICATIONS

Number of Stages
A stage is defined as a full lobe revolution in the stator. As the number
of stages increases, a power section is capable of greater overall dif-
ferential pressure as a result of having more cavities holding additional
SPECIFICATIONS

pressure, which in turn provides more torque to the rotor. Rotational


speed will not vary with a change in the stage count.
Additionally, for the same differential pressure, more stages will increase
the efficiency of the power section since there will be less pressure
drop per stage and, therefore, less leakage. Rotational speed is better
maintained, and lifetime will be extended.
APPENDICES

Stage Length (Lead) and Pitch


The axial length required for the helix to make 360 degrees of rotation
around the body of the stator is called stage length or lead. The shorter
the stage length, the tighter the spiral (higher pitch angle) and the small-
er the cavities. This will produce a decrease in torque and an increase
in the rotational speed.

21

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 21 10/1/2015 3:47:08 PM


On the contrary, longer stages will slow down the power section but will
result in higher torque output. In long-stage power sections, the efficien-
INTRODUCTION

cy of the seal lines may decrease due to the long lead, causing leakage
and reduction of speed.
Note that the stage length of the stator is not identical to the stage length
of the rotor. The rotor has a shorter stage length than its matching stator.
The fluid cavity is provided by the missing lobe and the shorter helix
CONFIGURATIONS

length on the rotor.


& SELECTION
MOTOR

Power Section Fit


The power section fit is the compression or clearance between the rotor
and stator. This parameter is probably the most critical factor that deter-
mines stator life. Each power section configuration is designed with a
specific fit to optimize performance output. The power section fit can be
COMPONENTS

calculated using the following equation:


MOTOR

FitPS = Rotor Mean Diameter - Stator Minor Diameter

If the power section fit is tighter than optimal, motor efficiency increases
OPERATION

because of reduced fluid slip between cavities. However, at high inter-


ference, frictional losses and rubber strain increase dramatically and
stator life is degraded due to high strain conditions. In cases where the
fit is looser than optimal, the motor efficiency drops due to slippage of
high pressure fluid between cavities and stator life decreases because
of its increased susceptibility to stalls and stator wear. Optimum fit
OPERATIONAL

provides a balance between frictional losses, power section efficiency,


MOTOR

LIMITS

and stator life.


The downhole environment has a direct influence on the power section
fit. Many configurations have options available for larger clearance
(Oversize Fits) specifically designed to compensate for elastomeric
SMART TOOLBOX

expansion caused by temperature and/or drilling fluid. On the contrary,


HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

several options are provided to be used in low temperature applications


or in cases where the elastomer tends to shrink as a result of its interac-
tion with the drilling fluid (Undersize Fits). HyperLine™ Power Sections
may be designed and manufactured with up to 10 different fits to suit the
widest range of downhole conditions. Figure 6 represents all possible fit
options for HyperLine™ Power Sections:

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

The power section fit selection process aims at identifying the compres-
sion fit that provides the required balance between stator life and overall

INTRODUCTION
performance, under specific downhole conditions and performance
requirements. Fit Predictor is the Weatherford proprietary program used
to determine optimum power section fit, based on downhole conditions,
power section geometry, elastomer properties, drilling fluid type, opera-
tional requirements, among other factors. Refer to Section 6.2 for further
information on how to use Fit Predictor.

CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

MOTOR
Elastomer Type
The stator elastomer has a large influence on the overall performance
output, drilling fluid compatibility, and operating temperature limit. The
elastomer is the consumable or wear component in the power section;
therefore, Weatherford drilling motors have a variety of elastomeric com-

COMPONENTS
pounds available to suit the needs of each drilling application.

MOTOR
Most fluids pumped through the motor will have some effect on the
elastomer. High fluid temperatures and exposure to certain chemicals
tend to shorten stator life. The most common elastomer reactions
are: swelling, shrinkage, softening, hardening, blistering, cracking,
etc. Additionally, the performance of the elastomer is dependent on
its mechanical and chemical properties. The maximum pressure drop

OPERATION
per stage depends on the physical properties of the rubber. Elastomer
selection should be based on drilling fluid type, performance require-
ments, longevity, and downhole conditions. Proper compound selection
helps to maximize stator life.
Weatherford drilling motors use a variety of elastomers that can be
OPERATIONAL

classified by their basic compound make up. Nitrile is the most pre-
MOTOR
LIMITS

dominant type of elastomer used in Weatherford drilling motors, and


will be suitable for most drilling applications. For this handbook, the
nitrile elastomers are broken down into three main categories based
on performance output: premium nitrile, EverForce™ and EverHeat™.
• Nitrile Butadiene Rubbers (NBR):
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

1. Premium elastomer (Weatherford NBR175)


2. EverForce™ elastomer (Weatherford WorkWise™ 250 or
WW250)
• Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubbers (HNBR):
3. EverHeat™ elastomer (Weatherford HNBR)
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

Improvements to elastomer technology have provided the ability to


enhance power section performance. They are capable of handling
greater pressure drops, and therefore are able to create more output
torque without increased length. Premium nitrile (WFT NBR 175) is
the first step up from commonly used elastomers. They are rated at
SPECIFICATIONS

175 psi/stage (1207 kPa/stage), and can outperform the output of


standard nitrile elastomers by as much as 30%. The next step up is
our EverForce™ elastomer (WFT WorkWise™ 250), rated at 250 psi/
stage (1724 kPa/stage), which can improve the output as much as 40%
over premium nitrile, and 80% over standard nitrile. These performance
characteristics are provided in the motor specifications.
As mentioned before, some drilling fluid has a tendency to degrade
APPENDICES

stator elastomer, particularly at higher temperatures, increasing the


risk of elastomer failure. EverHeat™ (WFT HNBR) is used in applica-
tions where drilling fluid compatibility and/or temperature are an issue.
HNBR is also sometimes referred to as HSN (Highly Saturated Nitrile
Butadiene Rubber).

23

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 23 10/1/2015 3:47:08 PM


Mechanical properties of the elastomers are highly sensitive to tem-
perature and tend to decrease as downhole temperature rises. Nitrile
INTRODUCTION

elastomers are recommended for applications with temperatures up


to 300°F or 149°C. For more challenging applications with extremely
high temperatures (up to 400°F or 204°C), the use of HNBR rubbers
is recommended. Differential pressure de–rating should be properly
applied for applications above 150°F or 66°C. Refer to section 5.5 of
this Handbook for further information.
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

Due to the ever-changing variety of fluids and chemical additives used


MOTOR

while drilling, details of elastomeric compatibility will not be provided in


this handbook. For additional information or assistance with elastomer
selection, please contact a Weatherford technical representative.

Rotor Coatings
COMPONENTS

Depending on the application, Weatherford rotors are manufactured


MOTOR

with stainless or alloy steel to provide maximum corrosion resistance. A


superficial layer of chrome plating is added to reduce abrasion and fric-
tion. Some aggressive drilling fluids with high chloride content, especially
at high temperatures, can cause damage due to corrosion. The chrome
will flake off and the base metal under coatings will be rapidly attacked.
This type of damage will dramatically reduce motor performance and
OPERATION

may lead to failure. As an alternative, Tungsten Carbide rotor coatings


are more resistant to corrosion damage and are available upon request.

HyperLine™ Plus Power Sections


(Uniform Rubber Contour Technology)
OPERATIONAL
MOTOR

LIMITS

URC, or Uniform Rubber Contour, power sections are a variation of


the basic PDM (positive displacement motor) design to improve perfor-
mance output. The cross-sectional profile of the rotor and stator are the
same as a conventional power section and operate in the same way,
however, the URC stator is designed differently. The steel tube of the
SMART TOOLBOX

stator is manufactured with a spiraled-lobed profile machined through


HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

the bore. A thin uniform layer of elastomer is applied to the inside of this
lobed profile, hence the name Uniform Rubber Contour. 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. The name HyperLine™ Plus will be
used to refer to URC power sections.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

This design configuration results in both an increased torque capacity


and reduced effects from rubber swell (constant change in rubber thick-
ness due to temperature, or fluid exposure, over a thinner cross-section).

3.5 TOP SUB AND ROTOR CATCH MECHANISM

INTRODUCTION
Weatherford drilling motors come with a rotor catch assembly as stan-
dard equipment. The rotor catch is a safety device that allows the motor
to be pulled out of hole in the event of a connection failure. The catch
mandrel, which is connected to the rotor, will catch on the inside of the
top-most sub of the drilling motor, ensuring that when pulling out of the
hole the rest of the drilling motor will come with it. When engaged for

CONFIGURATIONS
retrieval, care must be used to prevent over stressing the catch mandrel.

& SELECTION
Top sub rotor catch assemblies have options available for an integrated

MOTOR
float or ported rotor catch mandrel for rotor bypass. Weatherford top
subs come equipped with a float recess at the API connection. Refer to
Appendix 5 - Rotor Catch and Float Valve Information.
Rotor catch operation can be found in Section 4.11. Refer to Section 6.5
for rotor catch nozzle selection.

COMPONENTS
MOTOR
3.6 BHA (BOTTOM HOLE ASSEMBLY) ADD-ONS
Weatherford has a variety of drilling tools available that can be run in
conjunction with the motor:

String Float Sub

OPERATION
String float subs are designed to be run above the motor and contain
a float valve. The float valve prevents drilling fluid from back flowing
and keeps cuttings out of the motor and drill pipe. This helps prevent
damage to the stator and keeps the bit from plugging up. It is also used
under the following conditions: a) drilling unconsolidated formations;
b) underbalanced drilling; c) milling steel; d) sour H2S wells; e) added
OPERATIONAL

blowout protection, etc.


MOTOR
LIMITS

String Stabilizers
String stabilizers can be used with Weatherford drilling motors to help
change the build rate characteristics of that motor, or help stabilize the
SMART TOOLBOX

BHA. These come in a large variety of styles and gauge diameters to


HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

meet specific drilling requirements. Estimated build rates using both a


bearing housing stabilizer and a string stabilizer can be found on each
bearing section spec sheet. Please contact a Weatherford technical
services representative for more details on available string stabilizers.

Kick Pads
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

Eccentric kick pads can be used on Weatherford drilling motors.


Typically, this kick pad is adjusted to match the low side of the motor to
increase build rate capabilities. They can be installed in the field. The
design is dependent on the type of bearing housing being used. A kick
pad allows for lower adjustable settings for a given build rate, reduces
radial stresses applied to the bearing assembly, and permits safer
SPECIFICATIONS

rotation of the motor.

Alignment Subs
Alignment subs are tools used in applications requiring the low side
bend on the drilling motor to be aligned with another drilling tool further
up on the BHA. Please contact a Weatherford technical services repre-

4.1 ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE AND SURFACE CHECK


Although all Weatherford mud lubricated drilling motors are shipped
from the shop thoroughly inspected and tested, some initial checks
OPERATION

should be completed prior to running in hole. These surface checks


should only be used with mud drilling systems.
Note: To avoid potential bit, motor, and blow-out preventer damage,
these preliminary checks should be completed without a bit attached. A
thread protector should be installed in the bit box whenever moving the
OPERATIONAL

motor, and must be removed before flow testing.


MOTOR

LIMITS

1. The correct lift sub must always be used for lifting the tool into position
for make-up. Also, be sure the connection between the lift sub and the
drilling motor is tight (depending on customer’s requirements, it might
need to be torqued up). Pick up the Weatherford 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.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

All connections of the drilling motor are torqued in Weatherford’s service

4.2 TRIPPING IN THE HOLE


When tripping in, the following considerations should be taken into
account:
• Control travel speed while tripping into the hole.
COMPONENTS

• The drillstring should be tripped with the blocks unlocked.


MOTOR

• Special care must be taken when passing the casing shoe, liner
hanger, bridges, and when nearing bottom.
• Tight spots should be reamed through rotating the drillstring within
Weatherford specifications and closely monitoring SPP pressure
and TD torque. Special care should be taken to avoid BHA hang-
OPERATION

ing and motor stalling.


• When tripping to extreme depths or when hole temperatures are
high, periodic stops are recommended to break for circulation.
This prevents bit plugging and aids in cooling the drilling motor,
OPERATIONAL

preventing high temperature damage.


MOTOR

LIMITS

• If a PDC or diamond bit is being used, do not circulate through the


drilling motor with no WOB for extended periods of time. Vibration
from the motor may damage the bit cutters.
• Stop and break circulation before putting drilling motor on-bottom.
SMART TOOLBOX

Failure to do so could plug jets and/or damage the drilling motor.


HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

4.3 DRILLING
When the assembly has been tripped to the bottom of the hole,
HyperLine™ drilling motors should be operated in the following manner:
1. With the bit 60 - 90 ft (18.3 m to 27.4 m) off bottom start the pumps
APPLICATIONS

and slowly increase the operating flow rate and record the flow rate and
SPECIAL

pressure.
2. After a short cleaning interval, lower the bit carefully to bottom follow-
ing bit manufacturers bed-in procedures. Note that torque can be affect-
ed by excessive uncirculated cuttings. If excessive torque is identified,
SPECIFICATIONS

rotate the drillstring 40 to 60 rpm (depending on the bend adjustable


setting). If rotation is not allowed, increase flow rate to maximum, as per
motor specification, while running bit to bottom.
3. Orient the drillstring as desired and slowly apply WOB. Pump pres-
sure will rise as the WOB 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
APPENDICES

steady flow rate and constant weight on bit. Differential pressure should
be kept within the recommended ranges presented in this Handbook.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

Operating Guidelines

INTRODUCTION
Monitoring of pump pressure in combination with WOB and TD torque
allows the operator to determine drilling performance. Listed below are
the most common performance trends:
• Adding WOB will cause both the differential pressure and torque to
increase.

CONFIGURATIONS
• Reducing WOB will cause both the differential pressure and the

& SELECTION

MOTOR
torque to decrease.
• Applying excessive WOB may cause damage to the thrust bear-
ings and/or power section.
• Applying excessive tension while stuck may cause damage to the
thrust bearings.

COMPONENTS
MOTOR
• Optimum differential pressure can be determined by balancing
motor performance, penetration rate, and drilling requirements.
• Maintaining a constant WOB and differential pressure will improve
directional control and wellbore quality.
• Do not exceed the differential pressure recommendations as listed

OPERATION
in the specifications, and ensure these limits are de-rated for
temperature, drilling fluids and drilling conditions. Failure to do so
could result in premature wear and/or damage to the drilling motor
stator. Reference Section 5.5 Temperature for further information.
OPERATIONAL

Many factors influence drilling performance such as temperature, bend


MOTOR

setting, bit type, formation, and well profile. It may be necessary to lower
LIMITS

performance expectations to accommodate the drilling conditions.

Back-Off Prevention
Historically, drilling motor connection back-offs occur when little or no
SMART TOOLBOX

WOB is being applied. At these times the vibrations created by the


HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

drilling motor are at their highest amplitudes, which increased risk of


connection back-off. This may occur when:
• Reaming.
• Sidetracking.
APPLICATIONS

• Circulating.
SPECIAL

• Drilling underbalanced with compressible fluids.


• Drilling with a rotor bypass.
When operating a drilling motor with little or no WOB being applied, the
operator must reduce the flow rate as much as possible. In addition to
SPECIFICATIONS

the applications mentioned above, when WOB is about to be removed


the flow rate should be reduced prior to picking up. This will reduce
vibration of the BHA. Once significant WOB has been applied the
flow rate can again be increased to the maximum allowable flow rate.
Applying this procedure as consistently as possible will reduce risk of
connection back-offs.

4.4 REACTIVE TORQUE
INTRODUCTION

A Weatherford drilling motor turns the bit with a right-hand (clockwise)


rotation. As WOB is increased, reactive torque is developed in a left-
hand (counter-clockwise) direction on the drilling motor housings.
Reactive torque is transferred to the BHA and may cause the connec-
tions above the power section to tighten or connections below to loosen.
Reactive torque increases with larger WOB and reaches a maximum
CONFIGURATIONS

when the motor stalls. Reactive torque affects directional control and
& SELECTION

must be taken into account when orienting the drilling motor from the
MOTOR

surface in the desired direction.

4.5 DRILLING MOTOR ROTATION


Rotary drilling with a bent motor places BHA components under signifi-
cant cyclic loads. As a result of wellbore constraint, the action of rotating
COMPONENTS

the drilling motor increases loading on BHA components. This is even


MOTOR

more predominant at higher motor bend settings and in higher wellbore


doglegs. Rotary drilling under the wrong conditions may:
• Accelerate wear between the rotor and stator.
• Cause belling on housing connections.
OPERATION

• Overload radial bearings causing excessive wear.


• Cause heat checking in areas where the outer surface contacts
the wellbore.
• Induce excessive lateral movement in overgauge holes leading to
vibration.
OPERATIONAL
MOTOR

• Increase fatigue on motor components due to cyclic loading,


LIMITS

leading to component cracking or fracture (twist off).


To help prevent rotating in adverse conditions, Weatherford has pro-
vided maximum surface rotational speed and dogleg limits for rotary
drilling, based on the adjustable setting, hole size, and stabilization.
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

Complete tables are presented in Section 5.4 Surface Rotational Speed


(RPM). Rotating the drilling motor set at bends greater than 1.83°/1.73°
is not allowed since it will greatly increase the risk of fatigue cracking
and failure on the housings.
When drilling, the transition from the curve section to the tangent/
straight section results in a very high bending stress across the bend in
APPLICATIONS

the motor as it rotates to a position 180° opposite to that of the curvature


SPECIAL

of the wellbore. When making this transition from sliding (curve section)
to rotary drilling (tangent/straight section), reduce the drillstring rotary
speed as much as the operation will allow. This will extend the overall
life of the drilling motor with most of the benefits going to extending the
life of the stator thread connections.
SPECIFICATIONS

• A minimum distance of 4 times the Bit-to-bend (BTB) length is


required for the SBTB and MBTB drilling motors.
• A minimum distance of 3 times the Bit-to-bend (BTB) length is
required for the LBTB drilling motors.
Under normal drilling conditions, “slick” bearing assemblies are typ-
APPENDICES

ically prone to high lateral vibration and shock resulting in extensive


connection and housing damage. If LWD/MWD sensors are available,
monitoring these parameters will allow corrective action to be taken.
This is even more critical when drilling hard formations.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

Adding a string stabilizer above the drilling motor will reduce the
vibration/shock in the tool, but doing so will also increase the level of

INTRODUCTION
alternating stress in the stator connections. It is critical to take this into
consideration when drilling the transition from the curve section to the
tangent/straight section in a wellbore.
When drilling in hard formation environments where motor connections
and components are known to be prone to cracking and fatigue, reduce

CONFIGURATIONS
the drillstring rotary limit as much as possible. This will prolong the life

& SELECTION
of the motor and reduce the risk of an incident.

MOTOR
Weatherford directional drillers are responsible for operating the drilling
motors within the recommended RPM limits. Any deviation from these
parameters will be considered “out of spec”.

Cyclic Loading

COMPONENTS
MOTOR
When a motor is rotating down hole, each revolution (360° rotation) is
considered one cycle. At each point during the revolution, the motor
components undergo varying degrees of loading and stress in relation to
the wellbore constraint. The higher the motor bend setting and wellbore
dogleg, the greater the fluctuation in loading and stress. The action of
cyclic loading causes fatigue.

OPERATION
Fatigue is defined as the fracture of a component under cyclic loading, at
a stress below the normal breaking strength. Fatigue will increase with
a higher dogleg, motor bend setting, and/or rotation speed. Chemical
corrosion, such as crevice corrosion or stress corrosion cracking (SCC),
will act to greatly accelerate fatigue damage. Contact a Weatherford
representative if high levels of corrosion agents are expected. For more
OPERATIONAL

information, refer to Section 5.6. Cracking in components is initiated by


MOTOR
LIMITS

fatigue and will eventually lead to fracture or twist off. Risk of fatigue
failure can be minimized by operating within the limits provided in this
handbook.

4.6 DRILLING MOTOR STALL


SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

Stalling occurs when the power section is overloaded, stops rotating,


and is incapable of providing enough torque to turn the bit. This may be
caused by one, or by a combination, of the following:
• Excessive WOB.
• Excessive bend setting or dogleg severity.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

• Excessive string RPM.


• Inadequate hole cleaning or hole sloughing.
• Sudden change in formation.
• Bit wear or damage.
SPECIFICATIONS

• Stick-slip.
Stalling can be indicated by a sudden sharp increase in the standpipe
pressure. This pressure increase is developed because the rotor is no
longer able to rotate inside the stator, forming a long seal between the
two. Figure 10 shows the risk of stalling based on the level of differential
pressure.

Drilling Parameters
If circulation is continued when stalled, the drilling fluid is forced through
OPERATION

the power section by deflecting the stator rubber. Drilling fluid continues
to circulate but the bit will not turn. Operating in this state will damage
the stator elastomer in a very short period of time resulting in extensive
damage and possible failure of the drilling motor. It is very important to
avoid this operating condition.
OPERATIONAL

When stalling occurs, the following corrective action must be taken


MOTOR

LIMITS

immediately:
1. Stop the rotary.
2. Reduce the pump rate immediately.
3. Release any build-up of surface torque.
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

4. Pick up off bottom with TD/Kelly bushing locked (otherwise


trapped torque will cause the drillstring to rotate counter-clockwise
or release excessive torque prior to pick up off bottom). If stalling
becomes frequent the drilling parameters must be adjusted ac-
cordingly. Failure to do so will result in the stator eroding until the
APPLICATIONS

drilling motor is inoperable.


SPECIAL

Caution: When a stall is detected do not pick the bit off bottom first. The
trapped energy / torque in the drillstring will instantly be released which
may cause connections to back off and/or cause damage to downhole
components.
SPECIFICATIONS

Micro Stalling
Micro stalling is another form of stalling in which the bit locks up and
the power section of the drilling motor is incapable of providing enough
torque to turn the bit. The drilling motor is more susceptible to micro
stalling when drilling under high loads and/or rotating in high doglegs.
Characteristics of micro stalling are:
APPENDICES

• Short duration event.


• Typically corrects itself without any outside influence.

• Very difficult to detect from surface.

INTRODUCTION
• Occurs under higher loading or drillstring rotary applications,
although, it is also very often related to sudden formation change
(different formation strength).
• Has the same negative results as regular stalling.
• May occur as the result of stick-slip.

CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION
• Usually occurs in small diameter motors.

MOTOR
The operator must be aware of conditions leading to micro stalling.
When micro stalling is suspected, the operator should reduce drilling
parameters such as flow rate, WOB, and differential pressure; and/or
increase lubricant percentage if drilling with water-based mud (reduces
stick-slip).

COMPONENTS
MOTOR
4.7 REAMING AND BACKREAMING
When reaming is required, all limits set in the rotary speed tables pre-
sented in Section 5.4 of this Handbook will remain the same, although
as a rule of thumb, rotary speed must be reduced as much as the oper-
ation will allow. Use 100 rpm or less as a practical guideline (maximum

OPERATION
surface speed). Special attention and action needs to be taken if hole
problems occur during the reaming process (hole pack off, high torque,
etc.).
All backreaming operations are considered to be high risk, and can
result in premature motor damage and failure. Backreaming exposes
the motor to very high tensile and torsional stresses that can lead to
OPERATIONAL

catastrophic problems (fish, lost-in-hole, sidetrack operations, etc.). If


MOTOR
LIMITS

backreaming is necessary, the maximum recommended drillstring rota-


tion for this operation is 40 rpm. If harsh backreaming takes place, it is
possible for the orientation of the adjustable housing to change, causing
questionable motor output and direction.
SMART TOOLBOX

Weight and Torque indicators should be kept as low as possible to


HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

ensure smooth operation of the motor while backreaming and reaming.


Failing to do so will place too much tension on the motor and reduce the
shoulder compression of the connections, making them susceptible to
backing off or fatigue failure.
Additionally, flow rates should be maintained above the specified mini-
mum ratings to ensure bit and bearing cooling / cleaning. Recommended
APPLICATIONS

flow rate equals minimum flow rate (as per power section specifications)
SPECIAL

plus 10%.

4.8 HIGH TEMPERATURE WELLS (HT)


Any well in which the downhole temperature equals or exceeds 250°F
SPECIFICATIONS

(121°C) is considered a high temperature well. HT wells require special


attention to determine operating parameters best suited for optimum
performance. Extra precautions must be taken while drilling and operat-
ing in these environments.
• Prior to drilling, any effects of the drilling fluid to be used on elas-
tomers must be known so operating parameters and tool selection
APPENDICES

can be adjusted accordingly.


• Downhole operating hours for drilling motor and tools must be
adjusted accordingly for temperature.
• When running in hole, periodic stops must be made to circulate
drilling fluid and cool down the motor before continuing.

39

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 39 10/1/2015 3:47:17 PM


• Operating differential pressure should be set as low as possible
while still achieving acceptable ROP and performance. Differential
INTRODUCTION

pressure de-rating described in Section 5.5 is applicable after


150°F (66°C).
The following procedure is a guideline for operation in HT wells (down-
hole temperature > 250°F or 121°C). Prior to drilling, all motors and
drilling tools must configured accordingly. Customized procedures and
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

operating parameters should be made for each well specific to the


MOTOR

downhole conditions, drilling equipment, and drilling fluids to be used.


1. Follow standard shallow test and staging procedures to properly
condition and test downhole motor and drilling tools, monitor
borehole temperature, and prevent any sudden surge of pressure
due to pipe fill.
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

2. Upon observing temperatures of 250°F (121°C) stop and circu-


late for 30 minutes or as long as needed to reduce the observed
temperature by 10 - 20%. The temperature should be lowered as
much as possible.
3. At 280°F (140°C) or higher, the same circulation procedure must
OPERATION

take place as described in the above step every 1000 ft (300 m),
approximately 10 stands, until reaching bottom.
4. If reaching a circulating temperature of 340°F (170°C) and there
exists a need to stop circulating for any extended period of time
(sit static), the tools must be tripped up hole to either the casing
OPERATIONAL

shoe or to the depth at which the static temperature is less than


MOTOR

LIMITS

250°F (121°C). This is to minimize the exposure time of the tools


to temperatures greater than 350°F (175°C) and to prevent any
inherent issues associated with this temperature.
5. When initially drilling, keep the operating differential pressure
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

of the motor to a minimum (i.e. 75 psi / 500 kPa) for 30 to 60


minutes.
6. After maintaining low differential pressure for 30 to 60 minutes,
slowly increasing until scaled operating differential pressure is
achieved. Maintain that or less for drilling. Refer to Section 5.5 on
APPLICATIONS

Differential Pressure adjustment.


SPECIAL

7. While drilling, the temperature should be lowered as much as


possible, and should never exceed the temperature rating of the
elastomer (See Section 5.5). Cooling techniques include: rotation-
al speed reduction, circulation after preset time/depth intervals,
SPECIFICATIONS

mud coolers, etc.


8. If a motor is run in temperatures greater than 250°F (121°C) it
must be laid down when tripped to surface and returned to base
for service and reline. Do not re-run.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

4.9 ROTOR BYPASS APPLICATIONS

INTRODUCTION
Weatherford mud lubricated drilling motors have the ability to facilitate
a modest increase in fluid flow rate while maintaining the specified per-
formance. This is done by using a nozzle on the top end of the rotor or
rotor catch mandrel. The rotor has a bore through the center, in which
partial fluid flow can pass. This enables a portion of the fluid flow to pass
between the rotor and stator at the desired capacity, and all additional

CONFIGURATIONS
fluid flow to pass through the rotor. Applications when a rotor bypass

& SELECTION
may be desired are:

MOTOR
• When requiring a motor operating flow rate greater than the flow
rate indicated on the motor spec for a desired performance output.
• Where there are concerns about drilling conditions causing the
motor to stall. Fluid will be diverted away from the rotor stator

COMPONENTS
passage reducing wear or damage.

MOTOR
When off bottom, as the fluid flow rate is increased all fluid will pass
through the rotor. The friction between the rotor and stator will prevent
rotation. Eventually the pressure drop across the rotor nozzle will be
greater than the pressure drop required to overcome the frictional losses
between the rotor and stator, and the drilling motor starts to rotate.

OPERATION
The amount of flow diverted through the rotor is governed by the nozzle
size. 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 the
desired capacity passing between the rotor and the stator. The remain-
ing portion of the flow will pass through the rotor.
OPERATIONAL
MOTOR
LIMITS

• During all operations the pressure drop across the rotor and stator
will be equal to the pressure drop across the rotor nozzle.
• If the pressure drop across the rotor and stator is high, the flow
rate through the rotor bypass nozzle is high. If the pressure drop
SMART TOOLBOX

across the rotor and stator is low, the flow rate through the rotor
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

bypass nozzle is low.


• A rotor bypass does not alter the relationship between differential
pressure and torque as shown on the motor specs.
• Fluid volume passing through the rotor bypass varies with the
APPLICATIONS

differential pressure across the power section.


SPECIAL

• As differential pressure increases, the rotational speed (rpm) of


the motor reduces more rapidly with a rotor bypass than indicated
on the specification sheets.
• Operating beyond the maximum flow rate can result in accelerated
SPECIFICATIONS

wear to other drilling motor components.

Stalling
• The differential pressure at which the motor stalls reduces with a
rotor bypass.
• It is more difficult to identify stalling by the stand pipe pressure
APPENDICES

in the motor when using a rotor bypass. This is due to the rotor
nozzle allowing the fluid flow to bypass decreasing any pressure
spike. Even with less fluid passing between the rotor and stator,
detrimental effects of stalling remain. Stalling can be identified by
an increase in differential pressure and reduction in ROP.

41

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 41 10/1/2015 3:47:17 PM


• When a stall is identified, prior to pulling off bottom, the flow rate
should be reduced to avoid over spinning.
INTRODUCTION

Flow Rate Limitations


• When using a rotor bypass, the flow rate between the rotor and
stator should not be less than 2/3 of the maximum allowable flow
rate as indicated on the power section spec.
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

• Only a limited amount of excess flow can be accommodated by


MOTOR

using a rotor bypass nozzle. The maximum recommended flow


rate to be bypassed through the rotor is 10% of the maximum
allowable flow rate as indicated on the power section spec.

Nozzle Selection
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

See Section 6.5 on Motor Rotor Bypass Calculator for details on nozzle
sizing for specific rotor bypass applications.

4.10 VIBRATION
Vibration is a direct result of actions happening downhole while drilling.
Bit-to-formation and BHA-to-wellbore contacts transfer energy to the
OPERATION

motor, BHA, and the rest of the drillstring. Eliminating all amounts of
vibration is not possible. Vibration while drilling is naturally expected.
However, it is possible to take actions to reduce the amount of vibra-
tion occurring while drilling. Minimizing vibration will improve drilling
efficiency and increase the life of drilling components. See Section 5.9
for vibration limits.
OPERATIONAL
MOTOR

LIMITS

The operator can control the level of vibration that the motor is subject to
downhole. Severe downhole vibration can cause damage to the motor,
BHA, drillstring, and even surface components. Some damaging results
of vibration include: a) connection back-off, b) premature bit wear and
chipped cutters, d) cracking and twist-offs, e) motor and MWD/LWD
SMART TOOLBOX

failures, f) over-torqued connections, g) uneven stabilizer wear, h) direc-


HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

tional control issues, i) top drive or rotary stalling, j) excessive wear or


drillstring washout, among others.
There are three motions of vibration that affect the motor and downhole
components: axial, lateral, and rotational. Each type can occur individ-
ually or simultaneously. Often, there will be several different symptoms
detected due to more than one type of downhole vibration. Extra caution
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

must be taken while mitigating vibration. In several instances, while mit-


igating one type of vibration, another is created. Creating a non-severe
medium between two different types of vibration can be difficult at times,
but with close monitoring and small changes in drilling parameters, it can
be accomplished.
SPECIFICATIONS

Some drilling environments are directly related to the activation of some


vibration modes. Table 2. may be used as an initial guide for vibration
identification.

Axial Vibration – Bit Bounce

INTRODUCTION
Axial vibration (along the BHA centerline) is caused by large WOB fluc-
tuations causing the bit to undergo impact loading. Not only are these
vibrations damaging to the bit and its cutting structures, but also to com-
ponents in the BHA. While commonly observed when drilling with roller
cone bits in hard formations, it can occur in other situations. Axial vibra-
tion can be a result of excitation of axial resonances within the BHA.

Lateral Vibration – Critical Speed
INTRODUCTION

Potential for lateral vibration (perpendicular to the BHA centerline) exists


when BHA components come into contact with the wellbore. It is typi-
cally caused by excitation of a lateral BHA resonance or critical speed.
Wellbore contact results from lack of stability combined with fluctuating
WOB and torque. Lateral vibrations are commonly observed in poorly
stabilized BHA’s that result in buckling of downhole components. It is

Lateral Vibration – Bit Whirl

INTRODUCTION
Bit whirl is defined as the eccentric rotation of the bit about a point other
than its geoMetric center created from excessive side cutting forces act-
ing on the bit. The bit typically “walks” around the borehole in the oppo-
site direction to rotation. The immediate impact of this occurrence is the
borehole becoming overgauge and a large increase in impact loading on
the PDC cutters resulting in premature bit failure. Bit whirl is commonly

Lateral Vibration – BHA Whirl
INTRODUCTION

BHA whirl is the eccentric rotation or walk of the BHA around the well-
bore about a point other than its geoMetric center. The resulting actions
include high torsional and lateral vibrations from repetitive impact of the
BHA and wellbore. These actions can lead to several things such as
uneven stabilizer wear, tool joint damage, and downhole tool failures.
BHA whirl is commonly seen while drilling with pendulum assemblies,

MOTOR

Forward whirl typically occurs in limber BHA members suspended


between stabilizers points. The rate and direction of procession is
the same as the drillstring rotation. Backward whirl requires BHA-to-
borehole contact and is prevalent at stabilizer locations, especially when

Rotational Vibration – Full Stick-Slip (FSS)

INTRODUCTION
This torsional vibration is caused by the alternating speeding up
and slowing down of the BHA while rotating due to the bit stopping
momentarily. Full Stick-slip is characterized by distinct periods of zero
downhole rotation. When the bit instantaneously stops, the drillstring
continues turning, storing torsional strain energy until sufficient torque is
transferred down to break the stick. With sufficient torque, the bit comes

CONFIGURATIONS
loose, which then releases the drillstring torque and causes the bit to

& SELECTION
accelerate. Stabilizers in the BHA can also create this same action,

MOTOR
which is known as BHA induced stick-slip.
Once the BHA/bit accelerates, it will rotate at a rate faster than the sur-
face RPM, causing it to go into a regular sequence of accelerating and
decelerating. The bit/BHA may actually rotate in a negative RPM due to
the torque released in the opposite direction of the surface torque. FSS

COMPONENTS
can cause severe damage not only to the motor and BHA components,

MOTOR
but also to the PDC bits. Chipped cutters from reverse rotation of PDC
bits and twisting or backing off at a connection are common forms of
damage. FSS can occur while rotary drilling or reaming and is commonly
seen in transition zones and high angle wells due to BHA drag.

Rotational Vibration – High Frequency Torsional Oscillation (HFTO)
INTRODUCTION

High Frequency Torsional Oscillation occurs when the natural frequency


of the BHA is excited. This frequency of oscillation can range from 20Hz
to 300Hz, and is prevalent when drilling carbonate formations. HFTO
can result in extensive and premature failure of downhole drilling tools
and PDC drill bits. This is the most damaging form of rotational dynam-
ics and cannot typically be recognized by standard stick-slip Metrics.

Rotational Vibration – Low Frequency Torsional Oscillation (LFTO)

INTRODUCTION
Low Frequency Torsional Oscillation occurs when the torsional natural
frequency of the drillstring is excited. The frequency of oscillation is typ-
ically <0.5Hz but can be higher especially with push-pipe BHAs. In a lot
of cases, the peak RPM can be up to 2 times the average surface RPM.
This form of rotation dynamic is very common although is the least dam-

4.12 ROTOR CATCH OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION

Weatherford drilling motors come with a rotor catch mechanism. In the


event of a housing connection failure down hole, this safety device will
prevent the bottom part of the drilling motor from being left in the hole.
Figure 18 shows the geometry and function of the rotor catch mecha-
nism. The rotor catch mandrel is connected to the drilling motor rotor.
When engaged, the rotor catch mandrel will hang on the inner shoulder

4.14 SURFACE CHECK BEFORE LAYDOWN AND FLUSHING


Once the drilling motor is at surface, rotate the bit box in a clock-
wise direction (looking downhole) to drain the drilling motor. This is
recommended before laying down a Weatherford drilling motor since
aggressive drilling fluids can deteriorate the elastomer stator and seals.
SPECIFICATIONS

If possible, clean water / base oil should be put in through the top of the
drilling motor while the bit box is rotated. This cleans the power section
and should minimize the effects of the drilling fluid on the motor when
being shipped or stored. Also, clean motor ends (bit box and top sub)
with clean water and install a thread protector into the box connections
at each end.

5.2 DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE

INTRODUCTION
Compared to the traditional performance curves, Weatherford Power
Sections curves offer additional information to help determine optimum
drilling condition to maximize performance and lifetime. The perfor-
mance curves have been broken down into three (3) zones, based on
efficiency and power output. As shown in Figure 21, differential pressure
limits for each zone depend on the flow rate pumped through the power

The yellow zone (from 0 psi or 0 kPa to Line A in Figure 21) represents
the “Safe Zone”. The level of stress on the rubber is low; hence motor
life is expected to be longer.
The green zone (from Line A to Line B in Figure 21) represents the
“Recommended Zone”. The level of stress on the rubber is medium; this
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

means there is a balance between power output and lifetime. Extensive


statistical data and experience has shown that higher ROPs are reached
within this range.
The red zone (from Line B to Line C in Figure 21) represents the “High
Risk Zone”. The level of stress on the rubber is high; hence life of the
stator is reduced and the risk of failure increases. Additionally, the power
APPLICATIONS

output curve is parabolic, i.e., power output reaches a maximum value


SPECIAL

somewhere in the “green zone” and drops afterwards. If no additional


power is obtained beyond that point, there is no need to run the power
section under these high-risk conditions.
Operating the power section beyond Line C (in Figure 21) is considered
“out-of-spec“. Line D denotes nominal elastomer design limit (rubber
SPECIFICATIONS

rating, also referred to as power section maximum differential pressure).


As mentioned before, running the motor at or close to this value should
be avoided. If higher differential pressure is needed, a different power
section with more stages and/or with a higher pressure-rated elastomer
should be selected in order to ensure operations are conducted in the
“Recommended Zone”.
APPENDICES

Note: As a rule of thumb, optimum performance/lifetime balance is gen-


erally obtained at 45% - 60% of the Power Section maximum differential
pressure (design limit).

5.3 WELL CURVATURE (DLS)
INTRODUCTION

Limits for well curvature (DLS) can be found in Section 8.0 Bearing
Section Specifications for each model. These tables provide the maxi-
mum recommended dogleg to rotate in for selected bend angle settings,
hole sizes, and stabilization. Exceeding these values will result in accel-
erated component fatigue and excessive bearing loading. These limits
are based on maximum rotary speed limits presented below.
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

5.4 SURFACE ROTATIONAL SPEED (RPM)


MOTOR

Weatherford restricts surface rotary speed on BHA imposed by rig


equipment. The first reason is to mitigate cyclic bending stress resulting
from DLS and motor bend, this is why the rotary speeds must decrease
with increasing motor bend.
COMPONENTS

Secondly, to control dynamic vibrations there is a limit for straight


MOTOR

motors. The power section itself is a strong source of vibration from


the rotor orbiting around the stator axis. Damaging vibrations induced
by the power section become difficult to manage as rotary speeds are
increased, particularly for vertical drilling.
The following tables apply to all Weatherford mud lubricated motors.
Limits are based on motor configuration, size, and dogleg severity limits

Drilling Motor Surface Rotation Considerations
INTRODUCTION

The following are guidelines for operating a Weatherford mud lubricated


drilling motor in conjunction with the rotary speed limit tables previously
presented:
• Drillstring rotation of the drilling motor must also adhere to the
maximum dogleg severity limits found in the specifications of each
CONFIGURATIONS

bearing section contained in this Handbook.


& SELECTION
MOTOR

• A 1.83°/1.73° adjustable bend setting is the absolute limit for


rotation on the Weatherford HyperLine™ LBTB (long bit-to-bend)
drilling motors. This is even further reduced when using a stabi-
lized bearing assembly, or MBTB (medium bit-to-bend) and SBTB
(short bit-to-bend) drilling motors.
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

• All motor rotary limits are based on static bending stress calcu-
lations. Reduce the drillstring rotation as needed based on the
current well conditions.
• Typically, all Weatherford SBTB and MBTB drilling motors are
provided with a 0 to 2° adjustable assembly, and the LBTB with a
OPERATION

0 to 3° adjustable assembly.
• When reaming is required, all limits set in the rotary speed tables,
for both tangent/straight and curve sections, will remain the same.
Lowering the maximum speed to 100 rpm (if practical) is recom-
mended. If back reaming is necessary, the maximum recommend-
OPERATIONAL

ed drillstring rotation speed for this operation is 40 rpm.


MOTOR

LIMITS

Note: When a motor is rotated in the wellbore at its maximum limit, as


per applicable tables, the stator may undergo additional stresses due to
flexing of the stator tube. In these cases, stator should be automatically
relined.
SMART TOOLBOX

& SOFTWARE

5.5 TEMPERATURE
Downhole temperature has a great effect on the performance and life
of a HyperLine™ mud lubricated drilling motor. Optimal performance is
obtained by configuring the drilling motor for the downhole temperatures
it will encounter. The component most affected by temperature is the
APPLICATIONS

stator elastomer. As temperature increases, the elastomer swells and


SPECIAL

the mechanical properties of the elastomer are adversely influenced. A


combination of these two effects has the following results:
• Increased interference fit between rotor and stator.
• Increased friction and heat build-up.
SPECIFICATIONS

• Hard spots form in elastomer due to heat build-up.


• Heat build-up accelerates elastomer failures.
• Elastomer more susceptible to chunking.
• Premature wear on rotor and stator.
• Reduced life expectancy.
APPENDICES

• Increased risk of downhole failure.


Low temperature wells may also have an effect on the power section fit,
and therefore, on the overall performance and stator lifetime.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

Hence, the power section should be configured to accommodate for


the effects of temperature. First, the correct fit between the rotor and

INTRODUCTION
the stator must be selected. If necessary, elastomers designed for
higher temperatures should be chosen. Finally, the operating differential
pressure must be de-rated based on expected operating temperature.
Note: Extreme temperatures change the elastomer's mechanical prop-
erties and may lead to premature failure. Any stator that is exposed to

CONFIGURATIONS
temperatures above 250°F or 121°C should be automatically relined.

& SELECTION

MOTOR
Power Section Fit Selection
To compensate for elastomeric volumetric changes caused by increased
or reduced temperature, proper power section fit should be selected.
Power section fit selection process is described in Section 6.2 Fit
Predictor.

Elastomer Type Selection
Improvements to elastomer technology have provided the capability to
operate at higher downhole temperatures. Weatherford Premium elas-

APPLICATIONS

To compensate for reduced elastomer strength at higher temperatures,


SPECIAL

the amount of elastomer loading from drilling should be reduced accord-


ingly. The reduction in loading will offset the reduction in elastomer
strength and help reduce loss in life expectancy associated with tem-
perature. The loading that occurs on the elastomer is directly related to
the differential pressure applied across the power section while drilling.
SPECIFICATIONS

For downhole temperatures above 150°F or 66°C, the Load Curve


Scaling Factors at Temperature chart, shown in Figure 22, should be
used as a guideline to scale the differential pressure based on tempera-
ture and elastomer type.
There is an exponential decrease in life expectancy on power sections
as temperature increases. If the differential pressure is not scaled
APPENDICES

accordingly, the risk of a premature failure increases significantly with


temperature. The differential scaling factor can be used in two ways:

1. To limit the maximum differential pressure (design limit) on a


specific motor configuration based on temperature.
The maximum differential pressure (design limit) indicated on each
OPERATION

Power Section Specification sheet is based on operating at tempera-


tures below 150°F (66°C). At temperatures above this value, the max-
imum differential pressure must be scaled down. To calculate, find the
DSF (Differential Scaling Factor) in Figure 22 for the maximum expected
downhole circulating temperature. Multiply this number by the maximum
differential pressure indicated on the motor spec sheet to determine the

new maximum differential pressure.

2. To adjust the operating differential pressure on a specific motor


configuration for a different temperature.
If an ideal operating differential pressure is known for a drilling appli-

cation at a specific temperature, the DSF can be used to adjust the


SPECIAL

operating differential pressure accordingly for a different temperature. To


calculate a new operating differential pressure, find the DSF for both the
old temperature and the new temperature. Multiply the old differential
pressure by the new temp DSF divided by the old temp DSF to deter-
mine the new differential pressure required.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

5.6 DRILLING FLUIDS

INTRODUCTION
The correct circulation and use of drilling fluids is critical in any drilling
operation. Drilling fluids satisfy many needs in their capacity to do the
following: a) suspend cuttings (drilled solids), remove them from the
bottom of the hole and the wellbore, and release them at the surface; b)
control formation pressure and maintain wellbore stability; c) seal per-
meable formations; d) cool, lubricate, and support the drilling assembly;

CONFIGURATIONS
e) transmit hydraulic energy to tools and the bit; f) minimize reservoir

& SELECTION
damage; g) permit adequate formation evaluation; h) control corrosion;

MOTOR
i) facilitate cementing and completion; j) minimize impact on the environ-
ment; k) inhibit gas hydrate formation, etc.
HyperLine™ drilling motors are designed to operate effectively with
most types of drilling fluids. Successful runs have been achieved with
fresh- or saltwater, oil-based fluids, additives for viscosity control or lost

COMPONENTS
circulation, and nitrogen gas. Consideration must still be taken when

MOTOR
using a drilling fluid as to what effect it will have on the performance and
life of the drilling motor. The most fluid sensitive component in the drilling
motor is the elastomer lining in the stator; however, rotors may also be
attacked by some aggressive fluids.

Mud Weight (Density) and pH

OPERATION
The drilling fluid density, or mud weight, will have an effect on the overall
performance and life of the drilling motor. Heavier muds will have a
tendency to wear the motor faster than lighter muds due to suspended
materials within the mud.
• Mud weight lower than 12 ppg (~1450 kg/m3) should prevent any
OPERATIONAL
MOTOR

significant washing.
LIMITS

• Mud weight higher than 16 ppg (~1900 kg/m3) will cause abnormal
wear.
• Mud weight should always be below 19 ppg (~2250 kg/m3).
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

Solids, LCM, or any other additives to the drilling fluid must be taken
into consideration. These may increase the wear rate or reduce the
maximum density that the motor can handle.
Recommended pH level should be between 4 and 10. Drilling fluids with
a pH value outside this range can cause serious damage to the elasto-
mer and plated components, especially if the fluid is allowed to stagnate.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

Oil-Based (Hydrocarbon) Drilling Fluids


Hydrocarbon-based drilling fluids can be very harmful to elastomers
(stator and seals). A measure of this aggressiveness is called the aniline
point. The aniline point is the temperature at which equal amounts of
the hydrocarbon and aniline become miscible. This temperature is an
SPECIFICATIONS

indication of the percent of light ends (aromatics content) present in the


hydrocarbon.
As a general rule, the aniline point of any drilling fluid should not be
lower than 150°F (66°C). This value is generally considered accept-
able for compatibility with the motor elastomers and health and safety
concerns. There are no fixed rules regarding this measure, though. The
lower the aniline point the higher the percentage of elastomer damaging
APPENDICES

and swelling due to fluid permeation. Also, the operating temperature of


the drilling fluid should be lower than the aniline point. Operating outside
these parameters tends to excessively swell elastomers and cause
premature wear, thus reducing the performance of the motor. In cases
where hydrocarbon-based fluids are used, it is recommended to adjust
the power section fit to accommodate for expected changes. Elastomers
perform better in mineral-based fluids over oil-based fluids.

For specific product fluid compatibility, please contact a Weatherford
Technical Representative. Always inform yourself of the health and
INTRODUCTION

safety risks associated with drilling mud and mud additives.


Note: Although usually not visually evident, chemicals and aromatics
contained in this type of drilling fluid normally compromises the mechan-
ical properties of the elastomer. Always reline the power section stator
after being operated in oil based drilling fluid.
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

Brine / Salt Solutions (Chlorides)


MOTOR

Drilling fluids with high chloride content can cause damage to the power
section rotor due to corrosion. This is especially true at higher tempera-
tures. Attention must be given if chloride concentration is above 30,000
ppm. High chloride concentrations will attack the base metal under
coatings such as the chrome on the rotor. This will cause the chrome to
COMPONENTS

flake off; leaving sharp edges on the surface that will accelerate wear
MOTOR

and erosion of stator elastomer. This type of damage will dramatically


reduce motor performance, and may cause the motor to stall, even at
low differential pressure. This will finally lead to failure (chunking).
Chrome-plated rotor coatings are acceptable for use with chlorides
concentration up to 30,000 ppm. For higher concentrations, the use of
OPERATION

tungsten carbide coatings is highly recommended.

Corrosion
Weatherford drilling motors are designed with alloy steels, stainless
steels, surface treatments, and coatings that are resistant to corrosion.
Even so, attention must be paid to the type of drilling fluid being used
OPERATIONAL

and any corrosive agents that are introduced into the mud system over
MOTOR

LIMITS

time. Because of the nature of the coatings, corrosion in downhole


rotors is not uncommon. The speed and nature of this corrosion is highly
variable though, and is affected by the downhole conditions and type of
drilling fluids used.
SMART TOOLBOX

Of primary concern is the degree of electrical resistance within the mud.


HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

The addition of salt ions (chlorides, calcium, sodium, etc.) to the fluid
considerably reduces the electrical resistance in the drilling fluids, which
is acting as the electrolyte. As this resistance is reduced, the flow of gal-
vanic current between the metals is promoted, and this rapidly increases
the corrosion process.
APPLICATIONS

Some of the more common corrosive agents are oxygen, carbon diox-
SPECIAL

ide, hydrogen sulfide, and salts. All can cause corrosive pitting on motor
components if introduced into the drilling system.
• Oxygen is a major cause of severe pitting.
• Carbon dioxide is not as harmful as oxygen but can still cause
pitting in high concentrations.
SPECIFICATIONS

• Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can cause severe pitting, stress cracking,


and hydrogen embrittlement.
• Salts can cause moderate to severe pitting.
Pitting and stress cracking will create small stress concentrations on the
surface of a component, increasing risk of fatigue-related issues. Some
APPENDICES

operating conditions will encourage corrosion:


• The rate of corrosion will increase with temperature.
• Trapped corrosive gases may dissolve into drilling fluid with an
increase in pressure.

Weatherford Mud Lubricated Drilling Motors

To reduce the effects of corrosion, additives such as oxygen and sulfide


scavengers, inhibitor fluids and films, and pH maintenance can be used.

INTRODUCTION
Attention must be given to any corrosion-reducing additives that may
reduce the life of drilling motor components.
Note: Always reline power section stator after operating in a corrosive
drilling fluid.

CONFIGURATIONS
Solids and Sands

& SELECTION

MOTOR
Special attention should be paid to the solids content in the drilling fluid
in order to extend the motor life and minimize the risk of failure.
Fine abrasives such as sand should be kept below 0.5%. Sand contents
above this value can reduce the motor life by half. Abrasive solids and
sands are damaging to the stator elastomer, and will increase wear on

COMPONENTS
motor components.

MOTOR
Based on the sand density (21.7 ppg or 2.6 g/cc), the solids present in
the mud can be grouped into two main categories: Low Gravity Solids
(LGS) –lighter than sand; and High Gravity Solids (HGS) – heavier than
sand.
• LGS includes salt, bentonite, and drilling cuttings, such as clays,

OPERATION
limestone and shale, etc. The calculated percentage of LGS
serves as an indicator of the effectiveness of the solids-control
equipment on the rig. High LGS is related to erosion of the stator
elastomer, rotor coating, seals and drive assembly components.
As a general rule, LGS content should not exceed 8%. A lower
OPERATIONAL

limit is preferred for higher-density muds.


MOTOR
LIMITS

• HGS is mostly related to weighting material. Normally, no drilling


cuttings are encountered under this category. Calcium carbonate,
barite and hematite are the main components of HGS. Generally,
HGS are not highly abrasive, although particles shape and size
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

could cause some negative effects on the motor. All solid additives
with rough or sharp surfaces should be avoided. In some cases,
specific particle size and shape criteria may apply. Contact your
Weatherford representative for further information.
Note: Higher ROPs are usually achieved when total solids content is
APPLICATIONS

kept below 5% (if possible and practical). Since drilled solids become
SPECIAL

less tolerable with increasing mud density, for heavier drilling fluid, a
maximum of 2 or 3% is desirable.

Lost Circulation Material (LCM)


Typical lost circulation materials such as calcium carbonates, walnut
SPECIFICATIONS

shells, cellophane flakes and cellulose fiber (among others) can be


used safely with Weatherford mud lubricated drilling motors. MWD tools
usually present more limitations with LCM than drilling motors. However,
a few considerations must be made when doing so:
• Use well-mixed, medium to fine LCM. A maximum of 80 lbs/bbl
(228 kg/m3) is recommended.
APPENDICES

• Larger particle sizes or heavy concentrations of fibrous mate-


rial will have a tendency to start plugging up radial bearings or
port nozzles in the drilling motor, and lead to premature wear or
circulation problems. In order to avoid plugging the system, lost
circulation material should be added slowly, away from the pump
intake. A pre-mix system would be the preferred means of usage.

Note: Contact your Weatherford technical services representative if the
mud system exceeds any of the drilling fluids - related limits described
INTRODUCTION

above or if there are any concerns in regard to these values.

5.7 SHELF LIFE


The shelf life of stators depends on the elastomer compound used and
how the stators are stored. In general, air (ozone) and heat damage the
CONFIGURATIONS

elastomer. Our elastomers tolerate more heat than the regular stators;
& SELECTION

however, they are still subject to aging from atmospheric ozone and
MOTOR

heat. The shelf life of stators relined with our NBR and HNBR elastomers
(including WW250 and NBR 175), which have been stored covered at
moderate temperature with the ends sealed (air tight), should never
exceed 24 months (2 years). Stators older than that must be relined.
At no time should rotors be stored inside stators. The interference and
COMPONENTS

weight of the rotor will deform the stator lobe profile over time. If power
MOTOR

sections are going to sit idle for over four (4) weeks, the rotors should
be pulled out and stored separately.
Contact your Weatherford representative for applicable guidelines relat-
ed to the shelf life of power section stators and storage/handling best
practices, especially those applicable to extremely hot environment and
OPERATION

cold weather.

5.8 BIT PRESSURE DROP


A certain amount of flow is required to pass through the bearing stack
of the HyperLine™ mud – lubricated motors to provide lubrication and
remove heat caused by internal friction. The amount of flow is regulated
OPERATIONAL

by the pressure drop across the bit. If the bit total flow area (TFA) is
MOTOR

LIMITS

too large, the resulting back pressure will not be sufficient to divert the
required flow through the bearings. This could cause the bearings to
seize due to overheating. On the contrary, an excessive bit pressure
drop will increase the volume diverted through the bearings, resulting in
accelerated wear. Hence, the bit pressure drop should be limited to the
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

values indicated on the specifications for each bearing section model


presented in Section 8.1.

5.9 VIBRATION

Metrics to quantify downhole shock and vibration severity. In addition to

in combination with a lubricating fluid to meet all the requirements
expected from an optimum drilling fluid system. There are two main
reasons for utilizing air and gas drilling methods in modern oil and gas

operations. These are: 1) Performance drilling (reducing drilling time by


increasing ROP), and; 2) Underbalanced drilling (the reservoir fluids flow
to the wellbore as the bit advances, avoiding damage to the formation).
Gases are commonly mixed with liquid muds to form two-phase drilling
fluids. Based on the liquid concentration present, there are three main
distinct operational subcategories for this technology:

INTRODUCTION
Due to the low heat absorption capacity of compressible fluids, one of
the main concerns with air or two-phase drilling is minimizing the heat
buildup in the stator elastomer. This can be done by:
• Optimum power section fit selection (running power sections with
larger clearances between the rotor and the stator). Refer to Section
6.2 Fit Predictor software for additional details.

Gas Volume Requirements


APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

Due to the compressive nature of gas, air and aerated drilling applica-
tions will typically require a higher flow rate to achieve the same motor
operating speed as a liquid. An equivalent liquid flow rate should be
calculated to be used along with the specifications sheets and curves in
order to determine the expected motor performance.
SPECIFICATIONS

The prediction calculations for air and gas drilling technologies are com-
plicated and require the use of special software. However, the following
equations can be used to estimate the equivalent liquid flow rate for air
and aerated drilling applications:

The wear rate on BHA’s and drilling motor’s components will be greater
in air drilling operations than in a conventional mud drilling operation
under the same conditions. Hence, a lubricant fluid is required to min-

reduce friction on the rotor / stator interface and provides some cooling

lubricates and cools wear surfaces. Lubricants should be injected in


fresh water downstream of the air compressors.
As the amount of lubricating fluid is decreased, wear to either the stator

Operational Guidelines
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

While drilling with air using Weatherford’s drilling motors and/or MWD/
LWD tools, several considerations must be made to ensure a successful
run. These guidelines will help reduce excessive vibration, over-spinning
and other problems related with air (gas) drilling operations:
• Staging air on and off the string is absolutely necessary, but all
OPERATION

air must be turned off if the string will be off bottom for extended
amounts of time (anything longer than 5 minutes would be consid-
ered detrimental).
• Do not let the motor run freely at any time, i.e. no WOB. Doing
so will cause premature stator wear and possibly an internal
OPERATIONAL

joint back-off or fracture. This mode of operation is defined as


MOTOR

LIMITS

over-spinning. With the air rates needed to drill effectively, it is


essential to keep the motor on bottom with a load.
• Any time air is brought on or off while using any amount of air or
number of compressors, make sure the air is brought on/off as
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

slowly as possible. Vibration and air surging issues can cause


serious damage and eventual tool failure.
• Appropriate drill bit nozzles sizing is crucial for air (gas) drilling
operations (over-spinning prevention). The air choke created by
the nozzles provides a back pressure that helps control the output
APPLICATIONS

rotational speed of the rotor.


SPECIAL

• If reaming is required, special care should be used. As well, using


one compressor is preferred. If two air compressors are required,
extreme caution needs to be taken to ensure that the motor is not
spinning wildly.
SPECIFICATIONS

• Weatherford highly recommends the use of string floats to keep


pressure trapped within drillstring, reducing the surge effect
against tools and motor. String floats also reduce blow down time
while bleeding air off during connections.

pulled out of hole, the pressure decreases allowing the gases to
expand and coalesce within the rubber. This is called explosive
decompression, and creates blisters in the rubber, possibly leading
to stator failure. To minimize this effect, the rate at which the

• The higher the gas / liquid ratio (lower liquid rates) the easier it is
to stall the motor.

OPERATION
• Slippage or blow-by (onset of stalling) occurs sooner and at lower
differential pressures in two-phase flow than single-phase flow.
• When on bottom drilling, an increase in the combined equivalent
flow rate of 5 to 10% over maximum recommended may help

7.3 SHORT-RADIUS WELLS


Horizontal drilling and re-entry technology are rapidly evolving. Short-
OPERATIONAL

radius drilling has made it possible to re-enter and sidetrack existing


MOTOR
LIMITS

vertical wells, targeting limited hydrocarbon columns horizontally.


Short-radius wells are typically defined as wells incorporating a build
section with a DLS greater than 28°/100’ (28°/30m). This definition
may vary ,and can be operator or area specific. Well designs of this
type are typically drilled to kickoff below, or to minimize exposure in a
SMART TOOLBOX

problematic zone above the target zone, or to minimize distance from


HYPERLINE™
& SOFTWARE

the parent wellbore to reduce geologic or other uncertainty. These wells


are typically drilled in 6 ¼ in. (159mm) or smaller hole sizes.
Due to the complexity of the well geometry (high DLS), it may be difficult
for some tools to pass through the buildup curve. The high stresses on
the drilling string, and particularly on the motor adjustable assembly,
increases the risk of fatigue failure. There is also an increased possibility
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

to have problems while drilling such as stuck pipe, twist off and hole
cleaning issues, etc. Additionally, high friction forces between the BHA
and the wellbore, especially inside the curve section, increases drilling
difficulties.
However, if planning and execution are conducted properly, there are
SPECIFICATIONS

many benefits to short-radius drilling, including:


• Higher build rates and improved drilling motor steerability.
• Less open hole / formation exposure.
• Curve portion may be drilled fully in the Target Zone.
• By keeping both the curve and the lateral within the desired
APPENDICES

portion of the reservoir, there is a better chance of avoiding un-


desirable gas and/or water invasion. Reducing the TVD between
the kickoff and the reservoir minimizes the differential pressure
between the two. Lowering the hydrostatic head is a benefit in
artificial lift where the pump is located in the vertical portion of the
well.

91

• Kicking off below a problematic formation, external casing shoe, or
internal completion component.
INTRODUCTION

• Provides a simple, cost-effective solution to drive maximum


production benefits from aging fields.
• Less expensive than drilling a new well to kickoff point.
• Re-entry has the advantage that borehole trajectory through

the production zone is near the original wellbore, where much is

known about the reservoir from logs and production history. This
would help in addressing problems with minimum interventions.
• Isolate higher/lower pressured production zones or water sands
without setting and cementing a liner. Particularly in re-entry
situations, the running of a protective liner would necessitate an
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

unacceptable reduction in hole size through the production zone.


• Many operators are restricted by well spacing or lease lines. Often
there is no room to drill a medium- or long-radius curve and then
drill a producing lateral of any significant length. In this scenario a
short-radius curve will allow to increase the lateral portion of the
OPERATION

well, extending the production zone.


• In many situations, short-radius wells can be an inexpensive
alternative to fracturing and a good option for evaluating an area
for subsequent horizontal development.
Detailed well planning and pre-job engineering is crucial for success-
OPERATIONAL

ful short-radius drilling operations. Optimum drilling BHAs should

LIMITS

be designed and performance predictions should be estimated as


accurately as possible. The selection of the bend setting for the drilling
motors is also important to minimize problems in the curve and lateral
sections. Additionally, MWD / LWD systems should be selected based
on the capability to pass though and survive the proposed short-radius

build up rates.

Drilling Motor Selection


The downhole motors required for the build section will typically use
a shorter bit-to-bend length bearing section. Weatherford BuildLine™
bearing sections provides the ability to drill higher build rates for
APPLICATIONS

short-radius drilling. BuildLine™ bearing sections develop higher build-


SPECIAL

up rates (BURs) through reduced bit-to-bend (BTB) length. This acts


to increase side force at bit, making the BHA turn more than with
HyperLine™ bearing sections for a given bend setting. Secondly,
the shorter BTB length reduces the geoMetric interference and, as a
consequence, the motor bend setting that causes unwanted contact

is higher. However, reducing the length of bearings and drive reduces


performance drilling capabilities. It is recommended to use HyperLine™
MBTB Bearing Sections for a better balance.

7.4 HIGH FLOW (HF) APPLICATIONS


In some especial cases, drilling motors are required to operate at flow
rates higher than those indicated on the spec sheets (overflow condi-
COMPONENTS
MOTOR

tion). Theoretically, speed and output power should increase as the flow
rate increases. However, if conventional power sections are operated
at flow rates above the design limit, the deformation of the elastomer
becomes excessive and the seal lines between rotor and stator can no
longer be preserved. As a result, cavity integrity is lost and volumetric
efficiency of the power section drops drastically.
OPERATION

Additionally, out-of-spec fluid velocities are related to shorter lifetime


and lack of performance since wear rates increase exponentially. The
average fluid velocity through the power section is an important element
because of its influence on wear. If the fluid velocity is too high, it caus-
es erosive wear, and if too low, it allows solids to settle and abrasive
wear occurs. It has been proven that the relationship between the fluid
OPERATIONAL

velocity and the wear is exponential with n = 3 ~ 5. Also, the velocity with
MOTOR

LIMITS

which the rotor rubs against the stator (sliding velocity) has a very sig-
nificant effect on the wear rate of both components. Optimum allowable
values have been set for both of them to minimize the risk of excessive
wear. These thresholds are implicit in the recommended flow rate range
indicated on the specifications.
SMART TOOLBOX
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

In some cases, power section stators can lose their mechanical strength
and even fail due to fatigue at mechanical loading conditions well below
the rubber tear strength as the result of high cyclic loading on the stator
elastomer due to rotor speed. The cyclic loading simply defines the
number of times a stator lobe is flexed in a unit of time.
As the number of power section lobes increases, fatigue life decreases
APPLICATIONS

because the loading frequency increases. At high loading frequencies,


SPECIAL

the strain on the elastomer will be sufficient to promote the initiation and
propagation of microscopic cracks in the stator lobes. This phenome-
non, known as fatigue crack growth, occurs under high strain and strain
rate depending on the elastomer tear strength and strain energy release
rate. If the elastomer is subjected to strain below the critical level, the
SPECIFICATIONS

onset of fatigue crack growth may not occur even at very high frequen-
cies. However, at strains above the critical level, cracks will initiate in the
high strain region, usually in the bottom of the stator lobes, and the crack
growth rate will depend on the cyclic rate of loading.
When all effects described in previous sections are combined, the stator
elastomer profile is permanently deformed; hence it is no longer capable
APPENDICES

of maintaining the quality of the sealing faces between the rotor and the
stator. As a result, leakage between cavities increases drastically and
overall efficiency drops, reducing the power output of the power section.
Speed and output power below expected values are then obtained as
a result.

SPECIAL

• Ultimate (survival) load capacities: these are the loads that must
not be exceeded. In doing so, excessive damage will occur.

Bearing Section Pressure Drop


SPECIFICATIONS

The bearing section pressure drop is the pressure required to overcome


the static friction of components within the bearing section. The bearing
section pressure drop is required in various calculations, and can be
used to help troubleshoot problems downhole when drilling.
Estimated values presented are based on water at 68°F or 20°C. Proper
mud weight correction should be applied as indicated in Appendix 4.
APPENDICES

Actual pressure drops must be determined on the rig floor during the
motor surface checks before tripping in the hole. See Section 4.1. for
details.

Drilling Motor Total Pressure Drop

INTRODUCTION
The drilling motor total pressure drop is the pressure required to over-
come the static friction of mating components within the whole motor.
This includes the bearing section, combined with one of the power sec-
tions listed, adjustable and transmission assemblies, and top sub. Much
of this friction stems from the rotor and stator fit in the power section.
Mud weight correction presented in Appendix 4 is also applicable.

CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION
Note: The drilling motor total pressure drop is typically less at surface

MOTOR
temperature than at downhole temperature due to changes in the rotor
and stator fits. This must be taken into consideration when using the
no-load pressure differential determined at surface for any calculation
or analysis.
Use the mDrop software to get quick results. See Section 6.4 for details.

COMPONENTS
MOTOR
Maximum Dogleg for Rotary Drilling
This table provides the maximum recommended dogleg to rotate in for
selected bend angle settings, hole sizes, and stabilization. Exceeding
these values will result in accelerated component fatigue and excessive
bearing loading. These limits are based on maximum rotary speed limits
presented in Section 5.4 of this handbook.

Note: BUR tables provide estimates up to 2-deg. This satisfies the


majority of drilling applications. However, some bearing sections can
be ordered with 3- or 4-deg. adjustables for medium and short DLS.
Contact your Weatherford representative for further information.
The enclosed charts provide predictions based on the load deflection
response for expected BHA and hole size combinations. The presented
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

values are for a specific set of assumptions that are believed to provide
representative results. However, field performance is expected to vary
from these results depending on the application. For applications that
are expected to deviate from the base assumptions, check with your
Weatherford representative. The primary assumptions are as follows:
SPECIFICATIONS

• Bit centered in borehole with a hinged constraint.


• Drill collar centered and tangent to borehole centerline.
• Static in-plane bending.
• Borehole walls are rigid and frictionless.
• Assumes perfect wellbore geometry.
• Neglects any bit or formation interaction.
APPENDICES

• Rotary drilling provided at 25 degrees inclination with minimum


applied WOB.

6552.01_3rd Edition Mud Lube_CURRENT working copy.indd 99 10/1/2015 3:47:56 PM


• Slide drilling in absence of gravity and zero WOB. As conditions
vary downhole, these estimates may be inaccurate for some

wells. Caution should be used when referring to these values, as


experience with certain formations will allow for a more informed
estimate of the expected build rate.

In the first chart, the differential pressure scale (psi and kPa) is displayed
across the bottom of the chart, and the mechanical output power scale
(hp and kW) is on the left side.
The POWER lines start at zero differential pressure and zero output
power, and increase progressively as differential pressure increases.

ple, if the flow rate is 800 gpm (3028 Lpm) and the differential pressure
is 500 psi (3450 kPa), the output power of the drilling motor would be
approximately 170 hp (130 kW).

Rotational Speed (rpm) and Torque vs. Differential Pressure Chart


This chart is two charts laid over each other. The bottom of the chart is
the differential pressure scale (psi and kPa). The left side of the chart
is the rotational speed scale (rpm), and on the right side is the torque
scale (ft-lbf and N-m).

Differential Pressure
INTRODUCTION

The differential pressure is the difference between the system pressure


when the drilling motor is on-bottom (loaded) and off-bottom (not load-
ed). Operational limits are represented by color zones as explained in
Section 5.2.
Differential pressure ranges presented in the chart correspond to the
EverForce™ elastomer (WFT WorkWise™ 250) design limit and pres-
CONFIGURATIONS
& SELECTION

sure rating. Specifications for power sections lined with our Premium
MOTOR

(WFT NBR175) or EverHeat™ (WFT HNBR) elastomers are not includ-


ed in this handbook, but are available upon request. See Section 6.7 in
HyperLine™ Spec Sheet Generator.
Performance data presented is applicable to operations at circulating
temperatures below 150ºF (66ºC). If operating at higher temperatures,
COMPONENTS

these values must be scaled using the Differential Scaling Factor (DSF)
MOTOR

found in Section 5.5. Other variables will have to be taken into consider-
ation which may require the maximum differential pressure to be scaled
down even further.

Rotational Speed (rpm)


The horizontal curved lines extending from the speed scale (on the left
OPERATION

side of the chart) are the RPM lines. Each is designated for a specific
flow rate. The RPM lines are used with the speed scale and the differ-
ential pressure scale across the bottom. Lines for flow rates not shown
can be estimated through interpolation.
RPM lines start at the left axis of the chart and begin to drop off slightly
OPERATIONAL

as differential pressure increases due to the slippage between cavities.


MOTOR

LIMITS

They eventually end somewhere past the maximum differential pressure


line (vertical line). The chart shows what happens to the speed of the
drilling motor as differential pressure is increased. The drop in RPM as
differential pressure increases is slight until the max differential pressure
line is crossed. At that point the RPM drops quickly to zero which is stall
SMART TOOLBOX

mode.
HYPERLINE™

& SOFTWARE

When the flow rate and differential pressure are known, the RPM lines
are used to determine what the drilling motor rotational speed is. Using
the performance chart shown in Figure 27 for a HyperLine™ 6-3/4” 3:4
4.3 ULTRA HF (250) power section as an example, if the flow rate is 800
gpm (3028 Lpm) and the differential pressure is 500 psi (3450 kPa), the
speed of the drilling motor would be approximately 230 rpm.
APPLICATIONS
SPECIAL

Torque
On the right side of the chart is the torque scale (ft-lbf and N-m). The
angled line extending from the X and Y axis intersection is the torque
line. The torque line is used with the torque scale and the differential
SPECIFICATIONS

pressure scale across the bottom. The torque line starts at 0 differential
pressure and zero torque, and increases linearly as differential pressure
increases. When the differential pressure is known, the torque line is
used to determine the torque output on the motor.
Using the performance chart shown in Figure 27 for a HyperLine™
6-3/4” 3:4 4.3 ULTRA HF (250) power section as an example, if the
differential pressure is 500 psi (3450 kPa) the output torque from the
APPENDICES

drilling motor is approximately 3900 ft-lbs (5300 N-m).


The same torque line is used for all flow rate values because torque is
independent of flow rate.
