The recent evolution of hydraulic fracturing methodology has driven significant corresponding investment in in horizontal drilling methods to maximize access to tight formation reserves, spurring a revolution in downhole tooling cost and capability. At the forefront is the design and manufacture of custom electric motors and alternators built to survive the harsh conditions present in modern oil and gas wells. This paper explors the latest developments in downhole tooling electrification and the impact this rapidly advancing technology is having in rotary steering and wireline tools.
