The PowerDrive vorteX powered rotary steerable system (RSS) has a fully integrated, high-torque power section that converts mud hydraulic power to mechanical energy, giving drillers the power to drill faster. In addition to high torque, this fully rotating RSS provides more revolutions per minute, translating to higher weight on bit to improve drilling performance. PowerDrive vorteX RSS is compatible for running with other PowerDrive RSS front ends for maximum rpm, resulting in longer runs.
