Projectiles in coil gun usually make one-way movement and move at a very high speed. The device would be fit for the application of oil pumping unit, as long as the projectiles can make reciprocating movement and move slower by adopting proper control methods. At present, during the production process of petroleum, the efficiency of the system is rather low. Energy dissipation takes a considerable ratio in the total cost of oil production. Moreover, beam pumping-unit system suffers from long driving chain, poor flexibility, a quite huge capacity and weight under long length of stroke, and low efficiency. Aiming at the earlier problems, linear electromagnetic oil pumping unit is presented in this paper, which is essentially a multiphase coil launcher. Analysis is made about the advantages and disadvantages of three-phase and multiphase structures, as well as the practical structure. Simulation studies are made; meanwhile, experimental investigations are carried out on a small-scale-model machine system. Further simulation studies of coil launching system are carried through the mechanical and mathematical models of rod string in a sucker-rod pumping-unit system. Theoretical analysis and experimental results verify the feasibility and the validity of the proposed system. Thus, a new path to solve the problem of high energy dissipation in oil production is explored.
