A mud motor, or drilling motor, refers to a PCPD pump placed in a drill string to provide extra power to the drill bit while drilling. It's called a mud motor because it uses drilling fluid or "mud" to create motion in the power section which is transferred as power to the drill bit. The components of a typical mud motor include the top sub, which connects the mud motor to the drill string; the power section, consisting of the rotor and stator; the transmission section, which transmits the power from the rotor to the bit; the bearing assembly which protects the tool from off bottom and on bottom pressures; and the bottom sub which connects the mud motor to the drill bit.

Mud motors are of great use in directional drilling, since they can be configured to have a bend in them using the different settings of the motor itself. This lets operators determine and change the direction of drilling so the drill bit reaches the target zone where the oil reserves are located, steering it into the desired target zone by using a MWD (Measurement While Drilling) tool.
