1. Directional Drilling: A New Look At Mud Motor Design Connor Mills

3. Background  What is Directional Drilling?  What are the main purposes?  Multiple wells  Zone of contact  Reach difficult reservoirs

4. Mud Motors  Make the whole process possible  Motor Powered by Circulation  Bearing & Drive Shaft Assembly  Generally come in two types  Positive Displacement Motors (PDM)  Turbine

5. XM1 Overview  Bent Housing  Adjustable From 0 ⁰ to 3 ⁰  Fixed Option  Power Selection  Bearing Assembly  Thrust and Radial Bearing  Rock Bit Balls  Driveshaft Assembly  Ball Driven Design  Eccentric to Concentric

6. Key Features  Durability  Simple & Robust  Drilling Time  REDUCED!!!  Cost Efficient  Less Wear & Tear

7. Selection

10. Remember  Robust Design for Durability  Easy Selection for Building & Maintaining Angles  Time Is Actually Money

11. Importance  If you recall…
