TorkBuster

The Ultimate Stick-Slip Solution

When Every Run Counts


TM
Ulterra's unique TorkBuster tool dramatically reduces
bit related torque and stick-slip problems adding
significant efficiency to drilling operations.

Technology Benefits
{{Reduced drilling cost by improving bit performance
{{Effective alternative to multiple Roller cone runs
{{Enables use of more aggressive PDC bits
{{Higher ROP in hard formations
{{Increases PDC bit life resulting in fewer trips
{{Improved BHA life- mitigates damage associated with stick slip
{{Improved tool face control in directional applications

Increased Performance
{{Formation threshold = torque required to fail the formation
and the level of reactive torque transmitted into the BHA
{{If formation threshold changes erratically, reactive torque
becomes erratic, causing BHA instability and stick-slip
{{TorkBuster impulse torque= high frequency torsional energy
provided by TorkBuster
{{Enables higher formation threshold to be drilled without
increasing reactive torque transmitted into BHA
{{With TorkBuster reactive torque is transmitted smoothly into
the BHA reducing vibrations and stick-slip
{{TorkBuster is available for hole sizes from 6 (152mm) to
9 7/8 (250mm)

Patented Application
{{Mitigates bit related Stick Slip
{{Generates Torsional Energy
{{Smooths out reactive torque into the BHA
{{Directs high frequency rotational impact forces to the bit
