Abstract

A technique facilitates drilling of a borehole by simplifying alignment between a running tool and a seal rotating system. According to an embodiment, the running tool is connected into a drill string. The drill string is then used to move the running tool linearly within the seal rotating system until engagement of an alignment mechanism occurs. With continued linear movement, the alignment mechanism automatically causes relative rotation between the running tool and the seal rotating system until a desired alignment position is achieved. The seal rotating system may then be secured to the running tool via threaded fasteners or other suitable fastening mechanism.
