DuraTorque®
Durability. Reliability. Advanced technology.
Leading-class engineering.
Power up downhole with DuraTorque®. Drill faster and longer using the shorter power section and unique stator design that increase ROP and WOB. And compared to spiraled tubes, DuraTorque Even Layer Power Sections are also less susceptible to buckling or deformation. Discover how DuraTorque provides unparalleled flexibility, along with Strength at Every Turn™.
DuraTorque® Drilling Advantages
Up to 2.5x more power than standard stator designs, which substantially improves motor Rate of Penetration
Increased weight on bit in tight doglegs by utilizing shorter stator length
More compact power section for maximized length-to- torque ratio
Fewer stalls, which equal less stress on drill strings
Fewer rotor/stator combinations are required to cover the same temperature range, resulting in lower tool inventories
Increased fluid compatibility, including explosive decompression from gas drilling
Our advanced design process employs a modular approach resulting in rapid prototyping and production
There are virtually no limits to tube size, length, or configuration of the DuraTorque stator
In most cases, we can quickly design a stator to match existing rotor fleets or custom-design a complete power section to exact customer specifications
The DuraTorque stator is easily refurbished, and our North American manufacturing facility provides an average three-week turnaround time for stator relines
