About this document
Downhole Pump Slippage and Rod Buckling by vibhuti is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper discusses downhole beam pumps and analyzes slippage and forces transmitted to the rod string. It presents new test data that conflicts with traditional relationships for predicting slippage. The paper analyzes how pump clearances affect slippage and rod buckling above the pump. It also reviews methods of calculating rod buckling forces and discusses various factors that can contribute to rod buckling, such as forces from the plunger and pressure drop across the traveling valve.
