Traditional beam units are the most utilized and durable artificial lift method. HRP technology merges the traditional benefits of a rod pump with new technologies to address the flaws in traditional beam unit rod pumps.

• NO ROD STRING COMPRESSION
  • HRP units never induce a downward force on the polished rod
• Near Linear Polished Rod Velocity
  • Lower Peak Polished Rod Load (PPRL) results from eliminating rod string acceleration/deceleration
  • Increased pump efficiency
    
• Long Stroke
  • Reduced wear
  • Less pump cycling
  • Increased pump efficiency
  • Deviated Wells
• Low Profile
  • Easy Workover
  • Dense Well Spacing
  • Below-grade installation
• Remote Optimization & Monitoring

In wells less that 5000 feet, Prograssive Cavity Pumps (PCP's) are generally considered an attractive solution because of high electrical efficiencies and low capital costs. PCP's are not cost effective under certian well conditions such as heat, chemicals, sand/solids, and high Gas to Oil Ratios (GOR). Rod pumps are relatively unaffected by all of these adverse conditions.

We have had great success replacing PCP's with HRP's in a number of wells in the Los Angeles Basin.

Gas lift is a process of compressing and injecting gas into a well's production casing to draw fluid up the tubing to the surface. This method is generally used on wells that have associated gas production or when high pressure and volumes of gas is available from other nearby wells for injection. As the gas pressures diminish over time in mature fields, gas lift becomes less efficient. As the gas reserve is depleted the operator begins to look for alternative lift methods. The HRPI ultra long stroke system represents an ideal alternative because the high compression ratio of the bottom hole pump, which reduces the potential of gas locking (forcing the pump to stop pumping). With the eventual depletion of the 19,000 wells currently on a gas lift system, many will be candidates for HRPI's technology. As an example, approximately half of the HRPI units sold replaced gas lift systems.

The RotaFlex^® is a 100% mechanical long-stroke slow stroke surface drive pumping unit used to lift crude oil from deep or high volume wells. The patented design is 20%-30% more electrically efficient than the conventional beam pumping unit. The unit provides a 306-inch pump stroke and has a fixed traveling speed that can result in longer run life of the down strokes equipment. The reversing mechanism is completely mechanical and creates a 306-inch pump stroke.

The principal application for the RotaFlex^® product is oil wells that are 8,000-10,000 feet in depth where the unit can pump 300-800 BPD at up to 4.5 strokes per minute versus 10-12 strokes per minute required in a conventional rod pump unit. The slow speed significantly reduces tubing and rod wear and improves electrical efficiency. The other application for the RotaFlex^® unit is in wells that require larger pumping volumes than conventional beam units are capable of producing.

HRP units are applicable on nearly all wells where RotaFlex^® units are appropriate. HRP units provide the added benefit of a low profile wellhead. During workover, both Above Ground and Subsurface Hydraulic Cylinders are easily and safely removed, whereas a RotaFlex^® unit moves, but remains largely in place.
