Motor housing assembly connections using radially disposed anti-rotation fasteners in well systems

A well system, comprising:

• a well tubing;
• and
• a downhole motor assembly coupled with the well tubing, the downhole motor assembly including:
• a first tubular housing configured to directly house a first portion of the downhole motor assembly;
• a second tubular housing configured to directly house a second portion of the downhole motor assembly and configured to axially join with the first tubular housing;
• and
• one or more radially disposed fasteners coupled with the first tubular housing and the second tubular housing and configured to secure a joint between the first tubular housing and the second tubular housing, each of the one or more radially disposed fasteners including a threaded portion and a cylindrical portion.

A method for using a downhole motor assembly in a well system, comprising:

• positioning the downhole motor assembly downhole in a wellbore of the well system, the downhole motor assembly including:
• a first tubular housing configured to directly house a first portion of the downhole motor assembly,
• a second tubular housing configured to directly house a second portion of the downhole motor assembly and configured to axially join with the first tubular housing, and
• one or more radially disposed fasteners coupled with the first tubular housing and the second tubular housing and configured to secure a joint between the first tubular housing and the second tubular housing, each of the one or more radially disposed fasteners including a threaded portion and a cylindrical portion;
• and
• performing one or more well operations in the wellbore using the downhole motor assembly.
