  • Such an antenna may likewise comprise toroids, gap-subs and/or hardwired data transmission technology.

Inasmuch as the signal often travels extended distances through the ground and is susceptible to other electrical interference, the received measurements often require clarifying, filtering and/or amplifying.
  • Data comparing means 36, calculating means 38 and motor operating adjustment means 40 are all part of surface data analysis apparatus 26, and are each programmed using conventionally known programming techniques to perform various functions. Specifically, after receiving means 34 receives the transmitted measurements/signals, data comparing means 36 compares the received downhole measurements with desired (and programmed) measurement parameters associated with the particular well and fluid being removed from the well.
  • Calculating means 38 then calculates the optimum wellhead pump motor operation parameters (for the particular well), based on the compared received data. If the calculations reveal that the pump motor is not operating optimally (i.e. speed and torque) for the particular well, then adjustment means 40, as will be explained, alters the speed and/or torque to such optimal settings.
  • Adjustment means 40 comprises signal generator 50 and pump motor speed controller 52.

  • Such updating means 30 transmits downhole measurements, at predetermined time periods, (from sensing means 32) to surface data analysis apparatus 26. At each time period, the downhole measurements will be subjected to comparing means 36 and calculating means 38. Accordingly, in one embodiment, if the motor pump parameters at that specific time period differ from optimum motor pump parameters, such differences will then result in adjustment means 40 causing, for example, real time adjustments to the pump motor. Alternatively, if adjustments are required, the adjustment means may alert a maintenance operator (as will be more fully explained) who will then make the appropriate adjustments to the pump motor in accordance with the calculated optimum pump parameters. Updating means, and in particular, triggering the . receiving and transmitting of downhole measurements (at predetermined time intervals) can be accomplished through conventional programming techniques as would be readily understood to those with ordinary skill in the art.
  • the invention additionally contemplates operator alert means 28 for alerting a maintenance operator (at, for example, a remote location) of any adverse condition associated with the well pump motor (including non-optimal performance).
  • the alert means may be programmed into surface data analysis apparatus 26 and may include receiver actuator 42 and receiver 43.
  • Remote receiver actuator 42 may comprise a conventional transmitter for triggering receiver 43.
  • receiver actuator 42 Upon detection of an adverse pumping condition, which could be relative to fluid removal from the well (as determined by comparing means 36) receiver actuator 42 transmits an alerting indication to receiver 43, which alerts the maintenance operator of the potential problem.
  • the receiver actuator may comprise a telephone/modem
  • receiver 43 may comprise a remote terminal or other device such as a cellular telephone or pager which the maintenance operator may have on his person.
  • the alerting indication may comprise an audio signal, video signal or any combination of audio and visual signals which are receivable, through receiver 43, by a maintenance operator.
  • downhole well tool 22 of automated wellhead pump control system 20 is positioned and is lowered down a well through conventional techniques.
  • the well itself is bored out proximate to an underground reservoir, for removal of fluid therefrom.
  • Sensing means 32 of tool 22 when activated, receives downhole measurements (data) as to the pressure and temperature at the downhole tool location in the well.
  • specialized sensors may likewise be positioned to take readings other than temperature and pressure.
  • 1 - 3 pressure and temperature measurements are made over a span of 24 hours. Between measurements, the sensing means is temporarily turned off. However, it is also contemplated that sensing means 32 may remain activated constantly. However, the selective activation/deactivation, as needed, conserves power and extends sensor life. This increases the length of time the downhole tool can stay in the well, which is highly desirable, inasmuch as the replacement of the downhole tool and its power supply typically requires downtime and, in turn, adversely affects operating costs and production output.
  • the wellhead measurements obtained are transmitted by transmitting means 24 via receiving means 34 to surface data analysis device 26. While other locations are contemplated, the surface data analysis device 26 may be situated in the field office thereby reducing the need for well operators to visit individual well sites. Thus, instead of having to personally inspect each well on a daily basis, visits to a well can be limited to only those necessary to address potential trouble situations or to perform preventive maintenance.
  • comparing means 36 compares the received downhole measurement to known or desired parameters preprogrammed and stored within the surface data analysis apparatus 26.
  • the tabulation of these known or desired parameters may be based on mathematical analysis, or based on prior gathered information regarding the particular well or other wells with similar properties.
  • the calculating means 38 calculates the optimum parameters for the wellhead pump motor.
  • the adjustment apparatus 40 adjusts the output parameters of the wellhead pump, if needed, to operate based on the calculated optimal values. These optimal values translate into the maximum safe fluid removal rates. While other parameters are contemplated for specific purposes, the adjustment apparatus is capable of altering, or causing to be altered, the speed and the torque outputs of the wellhead pump motor.
  • the automated wellhead pump control system 20 is provided with a learning mode wherein the surface data analysis apparatus can
  • surface data analysis apparatus 26 further includes means 31 for learning the characteristics of the particular well.
  • the learning means uses adjustment means 40 to set several wellhead pump motor output parameters. At each of the set output parameters, learning means 31 stores the downhole measurements received by the receiving means 34. Subsequently, through various algorithms, such as interpolation, trial and error, or other conventional computations, learning means 31 is capable of generating a mathematical model embodying the characteristics of the well, toward determining the resulting optimal pump operating parameters. More specifically, the mathematical model used toward determining the maximum removal rate of the fluid from the particular well can be obtained without risk of damage to any of the equipment (such as the pump). In operation of this embodiment, automated wellhead pump control system
  • the learning mode essentially begins with a desired set of well pump motor output parameters. Sensing means 32 senses the downhole measurements and transmitting means 24 transmits these to learning means 31 of surface data analysis apparatus 26. Learning means 31 may be configured to use several sets of determined pump motor output parameters for which the foregoing procedure is repeated. Once the values for the downhole measurements have been received and stored, the learning means 31 computes a mathematical model of the particular operating characteristics of the well. Learning means 31 maintains this computed mathematical model as the operating characteristics of the well. The mathematical model, maintained by the learning means, is used by comparing means 36 and calculating means 38 to determine optimum wellhead pump motor parameters toward maximizing safe fluid removal rates.
  • update means 30 is configured to trigger the operation of the learning means 31 to recompute the operating characteristics of the well at predetermined intervals of time. For each interval, the learning means obtains new downhole measurements to compute an updated mathematical model of the operating characteristics of the well.
  • the present invention is believed to provide several advantages.
  • the invention permits the maximum fluid to be removed from the well, without damaging the equipment. This results not only in greater fluid removal rates, but also in reduced down-time and lower maintenance costs. Further, inasmuch as downhole measurements may be gathered on a real-time basis, potentially dangerous well conditions may be uncovered and responded to quickly. Moreover, no moving parts or downline wires are required, reducing outside interference with the well during operation.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système de régulation de pompe de tête de puits (20) destiné à des systèmes d'ascension artificielles, ce système commandant une pompe de tête de puits soutirant du fluide dans un puits. Le système comporte un outil de fond de puits (22) pourvu de capteurs (32) permettant de mesurer des états particuliers du puits et du fluide à soutirer. Un émetteur (60) émet, vers un analyseur de données (26) situé en surface, les conditions captées. Cet analyseur de données (26) situé en surface compare ensuite les mesures de fond de puits à des valeurs de consigne spécifiques de certains paramètres, puis il calcule le régime moteur optimal de la pompe de tête de puits à partir des comparaisons de mesures pour déterminer si le régime de la pompe est réglé au plus juste pour un rendement optimal concernant le soutirage du fluide. Si ce n'est pas le cas, l'information calculée permet de régler manuellement ou automatiquement le moteur de pompe (les paramètres vitesse et couple notamment) pour obtenir un rendement optimal.
