ST26, eh? That's news. The advantage of the moving shell is that it's constantly forming, so they won't be able to start penetrating it. Further, if they only have animal intelligence, they're more likely to ignore some moving earthworks, no matter how weirdly it moves.
If you can't move the shell along with you, and have to raise a stone roof in front of you and dump it behind you as you go- kind of like you're crawling under a long blanket, then the less advantageous way to calculate it is that you're displacing a 60-yard long path of stone per minute, say 2 yards wide and 6 inches deep, as a rough estimate. The shape of the shell itself isn't so relevant with this calculation. It'd be 20 cubic yards of stone per minute, which would be a bit rougher on the FP pool- which would become the limiting factor- but still not as bad as Earth to Air tunnelling.

Problem with this is the limitation in the spell that no one dimension can be more than four times the lenght of the shortest.
