Gear rod rotator systems and related systems, sensors, and methods
Sensor systems for sucker rod pump systems and gear rod rotator systems may include one or more sensor modules comprising a sensor including at least one of a position sensor, a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, or a vibration sensor for detecting a characteristic related to at least one component of the sucker rod pump systems or the gear rod rotator system.
Sucker rod cleaning using inductive heating
A sucker rod cleaning system includes an inductive heating device, a feed mechanism, a first support and a second support. An electromagnet of inductive heating device includes a wire coil head that is configured to inductively heat a sucker rod positioned within a heating zone. The feed mechanism is configured to feed a sucker rod through the heating zone in a feed direction. The first support is positioned on an upstream side of the wire coil head, and is configured to support a portion of a sucker rod as it is fed through the heating zone by the teed mechanism. The second support is positioned on a downstream side of the wire coil head, and is configured to support a portion of a sucker rod as it is fed through the heating zone by the feed mechanism.
Plug and valve integrated cone valve pump with combined type movable and fixed three cylinders and two spiral centralizers
The present invention relates to a plug and valve integrated cone valve pump with combined type movable and fixed three cylinders and two spiral centralizers, which is applied to suction working conditions in highly deviated well sections. It comprises three pump cylinders, which are combined type including two fixed cylinders and a dynamic cylinder, two centralizers, which are combined type including a dynamic spiral centralizer and fixed spiral centralizer, a fixed cone valve, a cylinder and plug integrated springing fixed cone valve, a fixed plunger and a movable guide rod cone valve to solve the problems such as stuck pump, eccentric wear between plunger and pump cylinder and valve leakage.
POLISH ROD LEVELING ASSEMBLY
A leveling assembly that is capable of lubrication without separating the individual leveling plates. The leveling assembly comprising: a first plate having a convex curved surface having a curvature, the first plate defining a central bore therethrough; a second plate having a concave curved surface shaped to mate with the convex curved surface; the second plate defining a central bore therethrough. One of the first or second plates defines a lubrication passageway extending from a first opening on an exterior surface thereof to a second opening on the curved surface, and a lubrication groove extending from the second opening to the central bore of the plate with the lubrication passageway.

Sucker rod transfer assembly
A sucker rod transfer assembly for handling a sucker rod prior to the sucker rod being installed for use in a well. The transfer assembly includes an elongated body having a cavity that receives an end of the sucker rod. A slot is formed in an end wall of the body, and an opening extends lengthwise along the body that exposes the cavity. The sucker rod is engaged with the transfer assembly by inserting a tip and shoulder of the sucker rod laterally into the opening while sliding a portion of the sucker rod below the shoulder into the slot. The sucker rod is axially supported in the transfer assembly by interfering contact between the shoulder and edges of the slot. A spring selectively biases safety rings around the sucker rod end to retain the sucker rod end in the cavity.
SHEAR COUPLING FOR SUCKER ROD STRING
The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to a shear pin including a cylindrical shape positioned along a vertical axis having a first end having a common diameter with a second end; the first end and containing a first clutch at a point along the vertical axis that is furthest from the second end, the first clutch containing one of a recessing shape and a protruding shape; (c) the second end containing a second clutch at a point along the vertical axis that is furthest from the first end, the second clutch containing one of a recessing shape and a protruding shape; and (d) the curved portion including a diameter that is largest where the curved portion connects to each of the first end and the second end and then narrows along the curved portion, forming a curve that culminates at a neck where the diameter is smallest.
Full tubing inner-diameter spin-through rod centralizers
A spin-through drive rod centralizer consisting of a stator constructed of plastic, or other appropriate material, which is mounted on a rotor attached to the body of the drive rod, which provides the bearing surface for rotation of the rotor within the stator. The stator is equipped with multiple vanes which extend to the full internal diameter of the production tubing. In one configuration, the radially oriented vanes have cut-outs which allow the tip of the vane to compress inward, allowing passage through tight spots in the tubing, then rebounding to the full ID of the tubing. In another configuration, the vanes are tangentially attached to the stator body, such that they bend in a circumferential direction to allow passage through tubing tight spots, then rebound to full tubing ID.
Corrosion testing device
A corrosion testing device comprising a coupon holder for a sucker rod of a pump system and at least one coupon for corrosion testing, wherein the coupon holder comprises a holder body having an outer body surface and an inner contact surface, which inner contact surface is placeable on an outer rod surface of the sucker rod and defines a longitudinal body axis of the holder body, the at least one coupon is attached to the holder body and positioned at the outer body surface and at a radial coupon distance from the longitudinal body axis, the outer body surface comprises at least one guiding surface part located at a radial surface distance from the longitudinal body axis, and the radial surface distance is larger than the radial coupon distance.
Gear rod rotator systems
The disclosure is directed to top caps for gear rod rotators and polished clamps. Disclosed top caps include an elongated top cap body extending along a central vertical axis, the top cap body including a top face, a bottom face, and an exterior perimeter surface defining an outer perimeter of the top cap body, and a polished rod opening extending along the central vertical axis of the top cap body, the polished rod opening defining an interior circumferential surface of the top cap body and configured to receive a polished rod. Additionally, disclosed top caps include a nesting region along the top face, the nesting region configured to receive at least a portion of the polished rod clamp, and a mounting rim on the bottom face and extending outwardly from the bottom face along a longitudinal axis of the top cap body, the mounting rim including a mounting rim outer diameter, a mounting rim inner diameter, and a mounting rim bottom face.
