Abstract
A shut-off system and control method for a rotary steerable tool that includes a body having an inner chamber, a piston gallery extending between the inner chamber and a piston port, and an exhaust gallery extending between the inner chamber and an exhaust port. A spool in the inner chamber is movable into a plurality of positions to direct and control the flow of drilling fluid to energize pistons of the rotary steerable tool. The spool includes a spool shaft. A first passage extends through the spool shaft and receives drilling fluid via a spool inlet port in the shaft from a drilling fluid inlet port of the rotary steerable tool. A shut off valve is controlled to rotate on the spool shaft to open and shut the spool inlet port to drilling fluid flow.
