Top Drive Soft Torque Technology

Electronic stepless  torque adjustment system is designed to improve the efficiency of directional drilling, drilling of wells with a complex structure, to perform other specific tasks due to the smooth control of the top drive rotation by a predetermined number of turns or degrees.

The system allows to:

• eliminate torsional vibrations of the drilling tool and stick slip issues;
• to increase torque and reduce its sudden changes during drilling;
• to cause vibration by changing multiple forward and reverse rotation for reciprocating a drilling tool.

System:

• improves the performance of the Top Drive, optimizing torque;
• increases the speed of penetration;
• slow down the wear of drilling equipment;
• reduces the tripping;
• improves the drilling quality and reduces the costs.

At the request of customers, the system comes with a new Top Drive, or can be implemented in existing equipment.
