A Canadian production engineer ran the same Alberta field before and after
installation of DrSCADA wellhead managers. His comments?
“Any well worth pumping is worth the investment of a wellhead manager.”
“Pumping wells without wellhead managers is simply barbaric!”

We manufacture and
support wellhead
managers for beam pump
optimization and simpler
applications. Field service
is provided by electrical /
instrumentation firms
near your oilfield, or your
own technicians.
Savvy production tech with 20 years experience says
“More accurate and cost effective than just site visits
and volume testing!”

DrSCADA wellhead manager with VFD driving 640 pumpjack.
A DrSCADA wellhead
manager can protect
your rod string with
shutdowns for high and
low loads. The same
shutdowns can protect
the gearbox and the
structure from
excessive loading.
It can also detect
and avoid fluid or gas
pound, and duty cycle a
single speed pumpjack
to run with a full pump,
or can give speed control
to a VFD to pump faster
or slower as may be
required. It can also
monitor shutdown
devices, like pressure
switches, stuffing
box leak detectors, and H2S sensors, and monitor multiple analog pressures. It can also manage a
pressure PID loop to avoid excessive flowline pressure. What else would you like?

I think you might call that

classic case of where a low area
fault is a good shutdown to

not be restartable except by an
operator.
