How Downhole Mud Motors Work
Mud MotorConstruction
consists of a top sub, which connects the Mud Motor to the Drill String; the Power Section, which consists of the Rotor and Stator; the Transmission Section, where the eccentric power from the rotor is transmitted as concentric power to the bit; the Bearing Assembly which protects the tool from off bottom and on bottom pressures; and the bottom sub which connects the Mud Motor to the bit.
The use of Mud Motors is greatly dependent on financial efficiency. In straight vertical holes, the mud motor may be used solely for increased Rate of Penetration (ROP), or to minimize erosion and wear on the drill string, since the drill string does not need to be turned as fast.
The majority of Mud Motor use is in the drilling of Directional Holes. Although other methods may be used to steer the bit to the desired target zone, they are more time consuming which adds to the cost of the well.
Mud Motors can be configured to have a bend in them using different settings on the motor itself. Typical Mud Motors can be modified from 0 degrees to 4 degrees with approximately six increments in deviation per degree of bend. The amount of bend is determined by rate of climb needed to reach the target zone. By using a Measurement While Drilling (MWD) Tool, a directional driller can steer the bit to the desired target zone.
Are You An Experienced Roughneck or Driller or Rig Manager Looking For Work?
If so then we need your help! Roughneck City/Drilling Ahead has developed an application to help experienced hands find work and we need beta testers now.Beta testing involves filling out a 5 minute online job application and choosing the companies from a list that you would like to submit your application to. You can select 1 company or all of them then hit "Send Applications" and your application for employment will be sent to the person(s) responsible for hiring in that company/area. In most cases these are not email addresses available to the public and a great deal of work has gone into getting these direct links to those responsible for hiring.
This is not a replacement for the companies required employment application-it's just a way to get your foot in the door and be noticed. I am sure most companies after reviewing your information will want to email you a company application and schedule an interview or phone call if they are interested.
Still this could be a great tool to get experienced hands in touch with the companies all over the USA & Canada that need them & it sure beats leaving your name and number on the wall at the local hamburger joint and waiting for someone to notice it.
We don't know exactly how this is going to be accepted or what the feedback is going to be-but if you're looking for a job and have *at least 1 year experience then this could be the tool that puts you back to work right now.
During this Beta testing period all applications will be previewed to make sure they meet the 1 year experience requirement and are filled out properly and completely before they are forwarded on to employers.
We have even created some text for you to help you populate areas of the form like "Job Duties and Responsibilites" or "Reason For Leaving Last Job" all you have to do is copy edit and paste this information into the form.
This application is 100% free to both applicant and employer and a service provided by Drilling Ahead. we are not recruiters and you will never be charged for this. We will be updating the application with more employers and adding more customizations in the future. Right now it is ready for Beta testing-We look forward to users feedback and suggestions
Please forward this message on to anyone that it may benefit-Thanks!
