APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING REMOTELY LOCATED SUCKER ROD PUMPS

摘要

The present invention provides an electronic monitoring system (EMS) for monitoring the performance of remotely locked SRP oil wells. The EMS uses a GSM network for communication the real time monitoring status of an SRP to one or more remote monitoring equipment. The EMS comprises at least one sensor coupled with each SRP for sensing motion and recording strokes of the SRP. The EMS further comprises a programmable controller for receiving data from the sensor and a motor starter panel of the SRP. The programmable controller converts the received data into information in a predefined format and transmits it to a front-end processor (FEP) via a GSM device. The FEP further transmits the information to monitoring equipments such as control room computers, predefined mobile phones and PDAs.
