Top Drive Systems Market Overview
Top drive systems refer to a mechanical component on a drilling rig composed of one or more electric or hydraulic motors connected to the drill string by a short pipe known as the quill. During the drilling process, the top drive rotates the drill string. This rotation requires at least 1,000 horsepower to turn a shaft onto which the drill string is screwed. Top drives can be utilized in place of more standard rotary tables or Kelly drives.
