  • Variable build motor
    Patent number: 11105192
    Abstract: A variable build motor downhole tool allows changing the build rate in a directional drilling operation without pulling the drill string from the hole and replacing a fixed build sub in the drill string. A pad can be extended upon command to increase the build rate and retracted upon command to decrease the build rate. The pad is mounted on an insert disposed within an outer housing and extends outwardly through the outer housing by action of one or more pistons. Electronics housed in the variable build motor tool are used to receive commands from uphole and cause the pistons to extend, forcing the pad outward to increase the build rate.
