Abstract
A positive displacement fluid motor can include a stator and a rotor. The stator can include a housing with opposite end connections that are the same. A method can include deploying a fluid motor into a well, operating the fluid motor by flowing fluid between a rotor and a stator of the fluid motor, retrieving the fluid motor from the well, and then reversing the stator on the rotor. Another positive displacement fluid motor can include a stator housing configured to receive a rotor into one end connection, and configured to receive the rotor into an opposite end connection.
