Rod Pumping

Wells and fields have different characteristics that affect the type of solution best suited for automation/optimization. These characteristics involve more than just the volume of fluids that are being produced. Wells in shallow production, typically heavy oil producers, require different features than deep wells. Producing sand wells require different features than producing clean fluid wells.

Weatherford has grouped together multiple technological systems and field experienced personnel to provide the best configurations for any combination of scenarios that you may be facing in your field. Our rod pump solution is a complete solution for optimizing your rod-pumped wells through wellsite automation and data analysis. By integrating rod pump controllers (RPCs), variable speed motor drives, remote diagnostic software, and communication systems, Weatherford enables operators to properly optimize rod-pumped wells.

The solution includes intelligence at the wellhead and in the remote software. The RPC and the motor controller alter the operation of the pumping system in real time, based on real-time data. The software provides remote configuration of the wellsite hardware and the diagnostic analysis to make informed decisions about individual well and total field operation.

Weatherford offers several solution configurations for rod-pumped wells based on your needs. These solutions are used with over 30,000 wells around the world.
