OBJECTIVES
After a long time of production in “Masjed Soleyman” oil field (the first discovered oil field in Middle East) the natural drive energy of the reservoir was not strong enough to push desired oil flow from the reservoir to the surface, our client (NISOC) attempted to recover more production.
The primary objective for our client and our team became to achieve desired flow rate on a continuous basis from the reservoir and indeed making sure that no harm is done to the reservoir. After a lot of research, simulations and other types of engineering work, our team recommended the best method and unit to be implemented for the MIS-335 new drilled well.

SOLUTIONS
PETRO EDMAN engineers team recommended a Sucker Rod Pumping (SRP) unit to be installed on the MIS-335 well. In order to maximize the life of the equipment while achieving the desired flow rate, it is desirable to pump as slowly as possible, and using the most durable downhole equipment to withstand the corrosion of acidic fluid of the well. Therefore, first long stroke pumping unit with stroke length of 306 inches and lifting capacity of 50klb has been installed on this field.

RESULTS
After the pumping unit installation (2024 June) and commissioning, the system performance has been analyzed and the production steadily raised from zero barrels of crude oil per day (before pump installation) to a stunning continuous rate of 800 bbl/day.

CHALLENGES

  • Hazardous Well Fluid (High  Content)
  • Optimized installation (Only 13 meters Above Perforations)
  • 800bbl/day flow rate
  • Harsh environment

BENEFITS

  • Cost-effective
  • Highly Durable Materials
  • High Strengths Rod String
  • No harm to the reservoir
  • Less maintenance compared to other artificial lift methods
  • Higher flow rates with less speed
  • Smart monitoring with EDControl and Dynamometer
