Acoustic Pulse Generation for Liquid Level Depth and Reservoir Performance Analysis
The Well Analyzer is generally used with a remote fire gas gun, pressure transducer and acoustic software to acquire and process acoustic data and casing pressure data to analyze the well’s producing rate performance. The remote fire gas gun (WP=1500psi) is the most commonly supplied gas gun/microphone assembly for use with the Well Analyzer. In order to obtain pressure transient data, the remote fire gas gun must be utilized. It contains a solenoid that can be actuated by the Well Analyzer automatically while unattended. 

The Compact Gas Gun (WP=1500psi) and the 5000-psi gas guns (WP=5000psi) are manually fired gas guns. One of the advantages of these gas guns is that they can be operated in an implosion mode as well as an explosion mode. In the explosion mode, compressed gas is added to the compact gas gun volume chamber until the pressure in the volume chamber is in excess of well pressure. In the implosion mode (when the well has a surface pressure in excess of 100 PSI (7 atm.)), gas can be released from the well into the gas gun volume chamber that creates the acoustic pulse. These guns are especially useful when making measurements in gas-lift or in gas wells. A 5000-PSI (333 atm.) implosion/explosion gas gun is available for wells with pressures up to 5000 PSI (333 atm.). Please request a quotation on these gas guns if these gas guns are desired.

The 15,000-psi (1000 atm.) manual implosion gas gun is generally used for measurements in high-pressure gas wells with pressures from 1500 PSI (100 atm.) to 15,000 PSI (1000 atm.). A 15,000 PSI integral pressure transducer is available with this gas gun as an option.

LIQUID TRACKING is a software program that is used with the Well Analyzer computerized electronics package to track the liquid level in a producing well or in a well being drilled. The LIQUID TRACKING software is included in the Total Well Management System and is available as an option for all of the other systems. A remote fire gas gun is required for the Liquid Tracking operation.

Dynamometer Load Transducers for Pumping Unit, Rod and Pump Analysis 
Three different load transducers are available. Each load transducer has its features. All load transducers house a reliable and accurate accelerometer. Acceleration data is processed to determine polished rod position.

Electric Motor Performance Analysis
Current Sensor
A motor current sensor is supplied with all dynamometer sensors. The current probe is used to measure instantaneous motor current throughout the stroke. This permits an analysis of motor loading and proper motor sizing, and an indication of pumping unit balance.
Power and Current Sensor
The power/current transducer measures multi-phase motor voltages and currents. The data is electronically processed to obtain instantaneous power and current. This data is analyzed to determine overall electrical efficiency, balance and torque.

Rod Pump Predictive Software
For enhanced analysis of rod pumping systems, a rod system design software package is useful to fully evaluate the pumping system.

Plunger Lift Analysis 
Plunger lift analysis is available for determining plunger movement and location, evaluating well productivity, and determining optimum cycle times. See the web for an article on plunger lift analysis.
