Artificial Lift System Methods

Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP) assembly illustration

Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP)

Helical rotor in an elastomer stator creates sealed, progressing cavities for viscous/sandy fluids.

Sucker rod beam pumping unit diagram with labeled parts

Sucker-Rod Pump (Beam Unit)

Surface beam converts rotary to reciprocating motion to actuate the downhole rod pump.
