Abstract

See full text

A drilling system configured to reduce friction during slide drilling. The drilling system has a drill string comprising a fluid-driven drill stage such as a mud motor; a variable frequency drive configured to oscillate the drill string via a quill and a sensor array. The sensor array measures the torque applied to the quill and the angular position of the quill. A controller is used to control the variable frequency drive based on the determined applied torque and quill angular position to meet predetermined oscillation turn-around criteria and to reduce the time to reduce the angular velocity of the quill from a maximum rotational speed to zero in an oscillation cycle.
