Sucker rod pump lifting technology development is currently the most widely used, the most mature, the most complete supporting facilities. In the sucker rod pump lifting system of heavy oil, the larger of sucker rod and the friction liquid is one of the important factors that affect the lifting system. The friction between sucker rod and the liquid is needed to be accurately calculated in the scientific design of rod string matching. In this paper, friction between sucker rod and the liquid is the research object. The practical problems for the properties of the heavy oil which is changed with the temperature abnormally higher than the conventional crude oil. Temperature and pressure in the wellbore which effect on the viscosity of heavy oil is further researched. The calculation model of the wellbore temperature field and pressure field distribution is established. Furthermore, we put forward a set of suitable calculation model of the friction between sucker rod and the liquid in the sucker rod pump lifting system for heavy oil. At the same time, Using visual c # language programme computing software is compiled and generates the heavy oil viscosity curve which changed with various factors. On the basis of the work performed, the data of more than 500 Wells is calculated successfully. The results show that model prediction accuracy is higher than the normal model (Relative errors are less than 8%).

Field SS is a Heavy Oil field which means high viscosity oil making it difficult to flow. Therefore, artificial lift was used in this field to help lifting the high viscosity fluid, i.e. sucker rod pump (SRP). In the last several years, problem of the damage to the rod string was frequently occur. Rod string damage is usually indicated by the occurrence of broken or detached components. In order to overcome the damage of rod string components on the sucker rod pump, several parameters that causes rod string damage in 41 well samples in the field SS were analyzed and then recommendations were made as an alternative to minimize the occurrence of rod string damage. After analyzing the parameters that can cause rod string damage on 41 well samples in SS field, the cause of the breakdown of rod string is fluid pounding for 37 samples well, while the causes for 4 samples of other wells is not detected. After that, recommendation efforts is done, like size down pump speed and stroke length for 9 samples of wells, size down pump size and pump speed for 6 samples of wells and size down pump speed for 22 samples well. As for the undetected cause 4 samples of wells, is recommended to do proactive well service.

The size of the zone of wave action on the formation is determined when the sucker rod pump is operated with a rocker-type drive. An axisymmetric fluid flow to a well is considered against the depression permanently acting on a stratum of infinite length. Reversion of fluid flow influences on the change in nature of the rock wettability in vicinity of well. This change stimulates increasing its production rate. The results of experiments on a flat laboratory stratum model are presented.

AbstractIn many oil reservoirs worldwide, the downhole pressure does not have the ability to lift the produced fluids to the surface. In order to produce these fluids, pumps are used to artificially lift the fluids; this method is referred to as artificial lift. More than seventy percent of all currently producing oil wells are being produced by artificial lift methods. One of the most applied artificial lift methods is sucker rod pump. Sucker rod pumps are considered a well-established technology in the oil and gas industry and thus are easy to apply, very common worldwide, and low in capital and operational costs. Many advancements in technology have been applied to improve sucker rod pumps performance, applicability range, and diagnostics. With these advancements, it is important to be able to constantly provide an updated review and guide to the utilization of the sucker rod pumps. This research provides an updated comprehensive review of sucker rod pumps components, diagnostics methods, mathematical models, and common failures experienced in the field and how to prevent and mitigate these failures. Based on the review conducted, a new classification of all the methods that can fall under the sucker rod pump technology based on newly introduced sucker rod pump methods in the industry has been introduced. Several field cases studies from wells worldwide are also discussed in this research to highlight some of the main features of sucker rod pumps. Finally, the advantages and limitations of sucker rod pumps are mentioned based on the updated review. The findings of this study can help increase the understanding of the different sucker rod pumps and provide a holistic view of the beam rod pump and its properties and modeling.
