Abstract: A method, a computer program product, and a system for pump control that incorporates software algorithms, artificial intelligence, subject matter expertise and hardware for the autonomous optimization of a rod pump in a producing oil well, including various systems. The subject of the invention that is named here The Rod Pump Surveillancer System, is a built in a Pump Controller and integrates themodels for generation and diagnostic classification of dynamometer cards, the Neural Fuzzy Logic Algorithm for a programmable logic controller functioning stand alone, or connected to an edge computer, a server at the office or in the cloud, and the program software for the Human Machine Interphase. The method includes a developed model to generate downhole dynamometer cards based on data from two sensors. A programmable logic controller and a Human Machine Interphase device is used to further enhance control capabilities.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, a computer program product, and a system for removing gas locking in a pump. The method includes setting the pump into a gas interference condition based on a variable speed drive driving a pump at a first frequency and a choke valve set at a first restriction value and adjusting the variable speed drive to a second frequency and the choke valve to a second restriction value such that the adjustment produces a backpressure that lets free gas get dissolved in a fluid phase and keeps fluids drawn by the pump at a single-phase flow based on pressure-volume-temperature characteristics of the fluids.
