Abstract
The application of electric equipment to drilling rig drives can be made more economical if closer consideration is given to the engine, load, and method of operation. The information presented, which was derived from an analysis of actual operating test data, should assist users, rig builders, and operators in applying and operating electric drives more effectively on drilling rigs.
