MacDrill Motor
Weatherford’s MacDrill motor is a revolutionary high-temperature hydraulic motor
for milling and well-cleaning operations. The motor is up to 50 percent shorter than
conventional motors, resulting in faster rig-up time and easier transportation. A fully
sealed, pressure-balanced bearing pack greatly enhances motor performance and
longevity.
The MacDrill motor works on the positive displacement principle but features a stainless
steel stator rather than the elastomers found in conventional motors. With no elastomer
in the stator, the motor can operate at temperatures up to 500°F (260°C) and can be
powered by hydrocarbon-based solvents, acids, and gases. In applications where
conventional motor life is shortened or elastomeric stators are unusable, such as in high-
temperature, pressure-sensitive, or geothermal wells, the MacDrill motor has proved to be
a solid solution to the inconsistent performance of motors that rely on elastomeric stators.
Applications
• Running on dry nitrogen gas, natural gas with high distillate content, gas oil (a rubber-
attacking cutting solvent), inhibited acidizing solutions (plus rubber-degrading pacifiers),
naphtha, brine, and freshwater
• Operation in high-temperature wells for extended periods
