A method can include operating a pump system; determining a condition associated with the pump system; and controlling the pump system based at least in part on the condition.

A plunger lift system, as well as a method for monitoring plunger parameters within a wellbore using such a plunger lift system, are provided. The plunger lift system includes a lubricator attached to a wellhead at the surface and a plunger dimensioned to travel through the production tubing upon being released from the lubricator. The plunger lift system also includes magnetic sensor systems installed along the production tubing, where each magnetic sensor system includes a magnetic sensor for detecting the passage of the plunger as it travels through the production tubing, as well a communication device for transmitting communication signals between the magnetic sensor systems and a computing system located at the surface, where the computing system includes a processor and a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium including computer-executable instructions that direct the processor to dynamically determine the plunger position and/or velocity based on the received communication signals.

Embodiments for determining a stuck pipe location include determining that a pipe is stuck in a wellbore due to an obstruction; deploying a fiber optic stuck pipe location detector inside the pipe, activating a first fiber optic sensor to detect a baseline reading, and manipulating the pipe. Some embodiments include detecting micro-noises caused by the stretching of the pipe, wirelessly acquiring data related to the micro-noises from the first fiber optic sensor, and determining a location of the obstruction by comparing the baseline reading with the data related to the micro-noises. Some embodiments include recovering the pipe at a predetermined point around the location of the obstruction while leaving the first fiber optic sensor inside the pipe.

Systems and methods for producing fluids from a subterranean well include an electrical submersible pump assembly with a motor-pump unit. The motor-pump unit has a motor housing and a stator is located within the motor housing. The stator has a stator body with an interior cavity. A rotor assembly is located within the interior cavity of the stator. The rotor assembly includes a rotor shaft extending along the central axis of the stator, a rotor member, and an intermediate rotor bearing assembly. The rotor member and the intermediate rotor bearing assembly circumscribe the rotor shaft. An impeller is mounted on the rotor shaft and located within the interior cavity of the stator. A liner with a polygonal cross section is located along an interior surface of the interior cavity. The liner is secured to the motor housing and seals the stator body from a wellbore fluid.

A method, apparatus, and program product may utilize data associated with one or more electric submersible pumps (ESPs) to train a machine learning model and/or use a machine learning model to perform ESP failure analysis. In addition, one or more features from the data may be encoded into a machine-readable format to facilitate ingestion by the machine learning model.
