A wireless load cell monitoring system and method may comprise a remote load cell assembly and a base station. Embodiments of the remote load cell assembly comprise a remote processor, a remote memory, a battery, a remote transceiver, an analog-to-digital converter, and a load cell. Embodiments of the base station comprise a base processor, a base memory, a base transceiver, and a digital-to-analog converter. Embodiments of the remote load cell assembly pair with the base station using a wireless communication protocol, read analog voltage data from the load cell, convert the load cell analog voltage data into digital load data, and transmit the digital load data to the base station. Embodiments of the base station convert the digital load data into analog voltage data and output the analog voltage data.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for operating and controlling a well to keep the well alive so that the well will not need to be reworked to continue increased production. The system for operating the well generally includes a control and communications module having a well operation controller that connects with a plurality of sensors required to monitor and control the site, a plurality of sensors that measures pressure, amperage, tank level, and a server that stores and processes the information collected by the control and communications module.

An automated sucker rod spacing device comprising a housing, a screw set within the housing and connected to a sucker rod string via a polished rod, a nut which is in threaded engagement with the screw, a means to transmit a rotation force to the nut, wherein the rotation of the nut can lower or raise the screw and thus lower or raise the sucker rod string. The device can be used to stop tagging, ensure full pump fillage, and avoid gas lock.

A methodology for integrated pump and well data for managing pump-lifted wells in hydrocarbon fields is provided. Rod pumps are widely applied to various types of wells to provide uplift and may play a dominant role in the flow of hydrocarbon from reservoir to surface. Assess the state of each well and its components (including the associated rod pump) is important for optimal well and reservoir management for fields with artificially lifted wells. As such, a methodology is disclosed that performs machine learning in order to generate a machine-learned model using pump card data and at least one of well data, reservoir data, flowline data, user input data, or data generated from analysis of one or more of the well data, the reservoir data, the flowline data, or the user input data.

A method for determining a pump card for a well. The method comprising: obtaining a first set of data points, wherein the first set of data points comprise a first set of polished rod position data points of the well and a first set of polished rod load data points of the well; and calculating a first data point of a pump position and a pump load using the first set of data points. The calculating occurs before the well moves through a first complete stroke cycle.
