Study of Energy-saving Control in Oil Pumping Units Based on DTC Technology

摘要

The pumping unit is the main pumping equipment in the oil field. However, there widely exist such defects as low pumping efficiency, high-energy consumption, much time and great efforts consumption in stroke adjustment etc. in the current pumping unit, resulting in serious waste of energy. Some energy-saving technologies in pumping units have been developed, but the effects are not quite good. Aiming at this situation, this paper introduces a new type of motor control theory - Direct Torque Control. By controlling the stator voltage, the technology achieves the direct control of the motor torque. Meanwhile, with the combination of the motor running condition of pumping units, study of energy-saving control based on DTC technology is carried out. It turns out that the energy-saving effect is significant according to the application and test results of the energy-saving control device in the oil field. Therefore, the control device can bring certain economic benefits and have the value of popularization and application.
