Overview

The AEPOC 2100 provides control for rod pumps and reports system conditions to a central host computer. Local rod pump control (RPC) software plus communications to a remote host computer helps protect assets and assure efficient reservoir management.

Running a pumping unit with a partially full chamber causes fluid pound that drastically reduces the useful life of the rod string, tubing, and pump. To minimize operating costs and extend the operating life of the unit, the AEPOC 2100 only allows pump operation if the well has sufficient fluid for efficient operation.

The AEPOC 2100 controls difficult wells at any depth. The flexible pump-off detection algorithm allows control of even horizontal or gassy wells. When the pump is only partially full (pumped off), the AEPOC 2100 stops the pump to allow well fluid to recharge. When used with variable speed drives the pump can be commanded to run at a slower speed while recharging to further increase production.

A wide range of alarms are available to limit damage from failures in the pumping equipment or rod string. The sensitivity and actions to take for these alarms is configurable. Input conditioning helps smooth out faulty data from end devices to keep your pump running.

Local data analysis and well optimization can be performed via laptop software or a ruggedized hand held data terminal. Communication with a entralized host computer allows remote optimization of pumping unit performance and allows field personnel to prioritize their work schedule using host computer alarms and reports, before going to field.
