Abstract:  Worldwide, as conventional oil resources are depleted, beam pumping system is becoming the common type of artificial lift method for onshore wells. Production testing of beam pumped wells is an important diagnostic tool to detect potential production problem and for monitoring reservoir performance. In addition, the well test data and the inflow performance relationship (IPR) combined with the production system.

Also when larger population of beam pumping wells are connected to central batteries, it is difficult to determine the daily production of each well or to identify the cause of low production in the battery, as there is not any easy way to identify which well is affected. The new method continuously infers the production and by analyzing the down hole pumps card data.

The complete design of a sucker rod pumping system is an involved trial and error process. An "optimum" design requires that the engineer specify pump size and type; rod string size, taper, and material; surface unit type and size, gear box rating, beam rating, and stroke length; and prime mover type and size. The procedure requires that the engineer first assume an appropriate combination of pump, rod, unit, and prime mover and then perform calculations which lead to refining that initial assumption.
