Zilift Ltd, innovators of artificial lift solutions, announced a breakthrough for the oil and gas industry, as the firm’s revolutionary TorqueDrive™ technology delivers a successful first operational field trial in the U.S.

After extensive examination of the industry, the ground-breaking TorqueDrive™ technology began development three years ago at Zilift’s Aberdeen, Scotland headquarters before TorqueDrive™ was deployed for field trials in Bakersfield, California during 2013.

TorqueDrive™ has now exceeded initial field trial targets, having exceeded 150 days running and counting; an industry first and looks set to transform heavy oil artificial lift operations globally.

This is the first known practical demonstration of a magnetic torque converter in a downhole environment and TorqueDrive is powered by the smallest downhole artificial lift motor to be successfully installed in an oil well worldwide.
