Abstract
In recent years, one of the trends in oil well production has been the continuous growth of interest in intelligent monitoring and control systems for mechanized well assets. This is attributed, on one hand, to the increasing number of oil fields worldwide reaching maturity and the development of new challenging reservoirs (in terms of viscosity, water cut, and sand production). On the other hand, it is driven by the necessity to enhance the economic efficiency of oil production, including cost reduction and minimizing losses. The emergence of «smart» oil production technologies, such as programmable drives for well pumps, also contributes significantly to addressing these issues. Their application allows for increased reliability and lifespan of pump equipment, reduced well downtime and failures, prevention of negative scenarios during oil production, and facilitates the visualization of parameters in a user-friendly manner. Despite the widespread use of digital technologies in the oil and gas industry, there is still significant potential for further digitization to expand operations for enhanced safety and productivity. This article presents the experience of creating and testing such a control station for screw pump units at an oil field.
