The present disclosure relates generally to well operations. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a systems and methods for independently and/or simultaneously treating multiple wells from a centralized location using a split flow pumping system configuration. The split flow pumping system configuration may comprise one or more blenders, one or more boost pumps, a pumping system comprising one or more pumps, a component storage system, and a fluid storage system for treatment of two or more wells using two or more treatment compositions. The split flow pumping system configuration may comprise one or more controllers for controlling the one or more blenders, the one or more boost pumps, the pumping system comprising one or more pumps, the component storage system, and the fluid storage system. The system may comprise one or more sensors for collecting data corresponding to the one or more pressures, flow rates, injection rates, compositions, temperatures, and densities of at least one of the first composition and the second composition, wherein the controller controls the one or more pressures, flow rates, injection rates, compositions, temperatures, and densities of at least one of the first composition and the second composition based, at least in part, on the data.

A variable frequency drive system and a method of controlling a pump driven by a motor with the pump in fluid communication with a fluid system is provided. The method includes monitoring a pressure in the fluid system, monitoring and adjusting an operating frequency of the motor to maintain the pressure at a pressure set point, and, based on the monitored operating frequency, causing the pump to temporarily boost the pressure in the fluid system to a temporary boost set point for a first time period. The method also includes determining whether the temporarily boosted pressure in the fluid system stays above the pressure set point for a second time period and causing the pump to enter a sleep mode when the temporarily boosted pressure stays above the pressure set point through the second time period.

Systems and methods for real-time monitoring and control of well site operations employ well site edge analytics to detect abnormal operations. The systems and methods receive well site data from a remote programmable automation (PAC) controller at the well site, the well site data representing one or more operational parameters related to the well site operations. A probability is derived for a given slope for each one of the one or more operational parameters as correlated to a different one of the one or more operational parameters to produce correlated probabilities for the one or more operational parameters. A resultant probability is derived from the correlated probabilities for the one or more operational parameters and it is determined whether the resultant probability meets a preselected threshold probability value. A responsive action is initiated if the resultant probability fails to meet the preselected threshold probability value.

A method for operating a fluid conveying device (4), in particular a pump, a fan, a compressor or a valve, by way of a control unit (14), wherein the fluid conveying device with a deactivated emergency running mode is switched on at least in the case of initial application of an operating power of the fluid conveying device, a setpoint rotational speed specification or a setpoint actuating value specification is transmitted to the fluid conveying device, and the emergency miming mode of the fluid conveying device is activated when the setpoint rotational speed specification or the setpoint actuating value specification exceeds a triggering value or the fluid conveying device is operated for longer than an activation duration with an invalid rotational speed or an invalid actuating value. Furthermore, the invention relates to a pump arrangement, a control unit, a computer program, and a machine-readable storage medium.

The invention relates to a pump device having a pump (8) and an energy supply device (5, 18), wherein the pump has a conveying element (9, 11) which conveys a fluid by means of supplied energy, wherein the pump has a transport state and an operating state, and wherein at least one first element (9, 9a, 10, 10′, 11) of the pump has a different shape and/or size in the transport state than in the operating slate. The operating safety of such a pump device is increased by a detection device (12, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29) which detects whether at least the first element is in the operating state with respect to shape and/or size by means of a sensor.

A sump pump system having a primary pump, a fluid level sensor, and a primary controller electrically connected to the primary pump for activating the pump when the fluid level sensor indicates a predetermine fluid level has been reached, the primary controller having a primary interface for communicating with a secondary pump. In some forms, the system includes a secondary pump having a secondary controller electrically connected to the secondary pump and having a secondary interface, the primary and secondary interfaces allowing the primary and secondary pump controllers to communicate with one another and allowing at least one of the primary and secondary pump controllers to assume control of both the primary and secondary pump. Related methods are further described herein.

A well management system provides Internet-enabled monitoring, configuration, and control of a well system that may include a pump and a pressure tank. A controller is operatively coupled to the pump. The controller controls the pump based on pressure readings from a pressure sensor to maintain a configured pressure range within the system. The controller can communicate with a management system via a communications network. The management system is further in communication with one or more client devices, which may be associated with a homeowner, a service provider, a manufacturer, or the like. Via the management system, the client devices can receive information from the controller and send commands to the controller.
