From deep drilling to underwater production: Our mechatronic solutions set standards in the [downhole](#c2885) and [subsea](#c2888) sectors. Discover how we are redefining precision and reliability for demanding applications in the oil and gas industry. ##### Reliability Unsurpassed reliability under extreme temperature, pressure, shock and vibration conditions. ##### Long service life Pushing the limits of service life into new dimensions. ##### Custom solutions Our experts will help you select the optimal solution for your application. ##### Applications Our brushless servo motors are used in over 20,000 downhole systems worldwide. They are inserted in rotary steerable systems (RSS), power generation, pulsers, MWD and LWD technologies, wireline tools, downhole tractors, coiled tubing systems and completion applications such as valve actuators. ##### Key features Our motors are designed for extreme operating conditions: with outer diameters of 22–76.2 mm, a voltage range of 48–800 VDC, and resistance to temperatures up to 450°F/232°C and spinning pressures up to 35K PSI/2100 bar. You are fully submersible in hydraulic oil and offer high shock and vibration resistance. Thanks to our experienced engineering team, we can quickly adapt and integrate our products to meet your exact requirements. ![](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/_processed_/7/7/csm_wittenstein-bohrinsel_654b483e58.webp) ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/website/international/3-industries/2-energy/oil-gas/explosionsgeschuetzt.png) **Explosion-proof motors and actuators** BLDC motor for potentially explosive atmospheres Zone 1 & 2 Special features: • IECEx-certified solution with the option of scaling torque and speed • Existing solutions as well as new customized developments • Voltage up to 560V • Certified and tested for ambient temperatures up to 80°C **Maintenance & Service** • Customized maintenance plans • Detailed documentation of condition and expected service life • Regular maintenance of your drive through systematic replacement of wear parts • Proactive approach prevents unplanned downtime and the risk of failure ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/website/international/3-industries/2-energy/oil-gas/sensorless-control.png) **Zero-Speed Sensorless Control** Special features: • None feedback system required • Maximum torque from zero speed • Position control from zero speed ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/_processed_/b/e/csm_kleiner-linearaktuator_a2343ce7e7.png) **Small linear actuators (22 & 32 mm)** (e.g., flow control) Special features: • >350 F & 30K ambient conditions • Shock and vibration-tested design • Special winding for high temperatures and spinning • Wide range of feedback systems, strokes, and spindle pitches ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/website/international/3-industries/2-energy/oil-gas/motor-aktuator.png) **Small BLDC motor/actuator** (e.g., wireline applications) Special features: • Ambient conditions: >350 F & 30K PSI • Shock and vibration-tested design • Special winding for high temperatures and high spinning • Wide range of gear ratios and feedback systems • Hollow shaft as an option ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/website/international/3-industries/2-energy/oil-gas/gehaeuseloser-motor.png) **Casingless BLDC motor** (e.g., alternator, MWD, wireline) Special features: • Rotor and stator as a kit • High compactness • High freedom of integration • Shock and vibration-tested design • Special three-phase winding for high temperatures and spinning ![thumb](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/website/international/3-industries/2-energy/oil-gas/motor-mit-pumpeninterface.png) **Brushless DC motor with pump interface** (e.g., rotary steerable system) Special features: • >350 F & 30K PSI environmental conditions • Shock and vibration-tested design • Special winding for maximum temperatures and high spinning • Interface for microhydraulics (e.g., Bieri) Our product recommendations for downhole applications ![](https://www.wittenstein-group.com/fileadmin/_processed_/e/9/csm_cyber-hightemp-motor-image_68dba29ea1.webp) cyber® hightemp motor ---------------------- The cyber® hightemp motor brushless servo motors are the ideal solution for high-temperature applications.
