Abstract
With the development of oilfields, the problem of eccentric wear between casing and sucker rod in rod-pumped wells operation is more and more severe. Investigations on the eccentric wear show that the abrasion of sucker rod joint is more serious than the sucker rod itself. A new method of producing the Ni-base composite coating that contains nano-diamond and nano-polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) on sucker joint obtained by electrodeposition is presented in this paper. The test results show that the anti-wear performance and hardness of the sucker rod improve significantly with the increase of nano-diamond. The addition of nano-PTFE particle is useful in reducing the friction factor. Field tests demonstrate that the life of the sucker rod joint is increased and the maintenance cycle of the rod-pumped well is prolonged.
