ABSTRACT:
A tubular member for a drill string used in the rotary drilling of deviated boreholes, which includes an outer circumferential surface which is contoured and adapted to engage the wall of the borehole so as to produce a longitudinally downward force on the drill bit upon rotation of the drill string. The tubular member may be a drill collar or section of drill pipe, wherein the contoured surface is constituted of a helical thread of a pitch which will impart a longitudinal force towards the drill bit upon rotation of the tubular member.
