A top drive is a hydraulic or electric motor suspended in the derrick of a drilling rig, which rotates the drill string and bit and is used in the actual process of drilling the well.
Using a top drive eliminates the need for the traditional kelly and rotary table and reduces the amount of manual labour and associated hazards that have traditionally accompanied this task. For drilling contractors and producers, utilizing top drive technology translates into increased efficiency in its operations.
