A drilling assembly and method of drilling a wellbore is disclosed. The drilling assembly includes a steering device having a tilt device and an actuation device. A first section and a second section of the drilling assembly are coupled through the tilt device, wherein the first section is attached to a drill bit. The actuation device includes an electromechanical actuator and causes a tilt of the tilt device to cause the first section attached to the drill bit and the drill bit to tilt relative to the second section. The wellbore is drilled using the drill bit. The electromechanical actuator is actuated to tilt the tilt device to cause the first section attached to the drill bit and the drill bit to tilt relative to the second section and to maintain the tilt geostationary while the drilling assembly is rotating to form a deviated section of the wellbore.

The invention relates to a rotary drive arrangement for a drill rod having an outer pipe and an inner rod running at least in sections inside the outer pipe, in particular for double-head and/or overburden drilling, with a first gearbox for driving the inner rod in a rotating manner and a second gearbox for driving the outer pipe in a rotating manner, wherein the first gearbox and the second gearbox are independent of each other. According to the invention provision is made in that the first gearbox and the second gearbox are supported in a common gearbox housing and are surrounded by the same.

Reaming tools for reaming a borehole and related systems and methods are described herein. In an embodiment, the tool includes a body having a central axis, and a plurality of blades. Each of the plurality of blades includes an uphole section that extends in a first helical direction, a downhole section that extends in a second helical direction that is opposite the first helical direction, and an arcuate central section that continuously extends from the uphole section to the downhole section. The plurality of blades are eccentric about the central axis such that the reaming tool is configured to pass axially through a first diameter and is configured to ream a borehole to a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter when the tool is rotated about the central axis in a cutting direction.

A rotary transfer mechanism is disclosed for a motor, pump, or other downhole tool that accommodates the eccentric motion of a rotor without the need for a flex shaft, articulating joint or CV joint. In one configuration, the rotor is coupled to the drive shaft at a radial offset from the drive shaft axis. The orbiting motion of the rotor, rather than rotation of the rotor about its own axis, generates a torque on the drive shaft, by applying a tangential force to the drive shaft at the location of the radial offset. The radial offset may be set equal to the orbital radius so that no radial movement or flex is required at the drive shaft to accommodate the eccentric rotor movement.

An operator seat is arranged in a cab. An air-conditioning unit is arranged in front of the operator seat. A lower window through which the outside can be seen from the inside of the cab is arranged in front of the operator seat and laterally to the air-conditioning unit.

A method, device, and system is described herein for pushing a rotary drill bit. Pushing the rotary drill bit can include receiving a target direction in a formation to push the rotary drill bit while drilling a wellbore in a formation. Pushing the rotary drill bit can also include opening, at a first rotational position of a rotary bit pushing device disposed proximate to the rotary drill bit within the wellbore, a first inlet port of a first flow regulator. Pushing the rotary drill bit can further include closing, after the first rotational position of the rotary bit pushing device, the first inlet port. Pushing the rotary drill bit can also include sending, to a second flow regulator of the rotary bit pushing device, a second quantity of drilling fluid.
