Abstract

In the article, research of the beam-pumping unit start-up mode has been performed in accordance with the existing configurations of the rod column, the diameter of the plunger and the dynamic fluid level in the well. A mathematical model of the pumping unit actuator has been developed, it takes into account the mechanical characteristics of the drive motor, the moments of inertia of the belt drive and gears of the gearbox and the mass of the actuator components. Calculations have been performed for the variant of the pump rod column layout - two-stage, for the diameters of the plunger 55mm and depths of pump suspension of 1456 m. The problem of the beam-pumping units’ startup is defined for two cases. The first case is applied when the mass of the counterweights installed on the cranks of the pumping unit exceeds the mass of the column of rods and liquid, which is located in the tubing column above the plunger of the pump (rebalance of the beam pumping unit). The second - when the mass of counterweights is insufficient to balance the column of rods and the liquid in the tubing column above the pump plunger (imbalance of the beam pumping unit). The cases of rebalancing and imbalancing of the pumping unit occur in wells that are under periodic operative conditions. The first case - rebalancing occurs when the oil rocking pumping unit does not work, and the liquid level behind the tubing gradually increases up to its static level. After switching on the drive motor, the torque created by the crank counterweights exceeds the moment caused by means of the weight of the rod column and the liquid in the tubing column. Therefore, it is recommended to start the pumping unit from the lowest position of the rod suspender. In the second case, the imbalance occurs when the liquid’s dynamic level behind the tubing is lowered before receiving the submersible pump. Then the torque, created by the crank counterweights is insufficient to compensate the moment, caused by means of weight of the rods’ column and the liquid in the tubing column. Therefore, it is recommended to start the beam pumping unit from the top position of the rod suspension. As a result of calculations, the conditions of overload occurrence in wells with periodic operative conditions of the pumping unit are determined
