Abstract
A system for managing well production equipment, the system comprising a) an RFID tag reader associated with a production well within a production well field, said RFID tag reader being positioned to read RFID tags associated with well production equipment as the well production equipment is run into said production well; and b) a data processing unit in communication with said RFID tag reader associated with a production well.
Claims23
A system for managing well production equipment, the system comprising:
- a) an RFID tag reader associated with a production well within a production well field, said RFID tag reader being positioned to read RFID tags associated with well production equipment as the well production equipment is run into said production well;
- and
- b) a data processing unit in communication with said RFID tag reader associated with a production well.
A process for managing well production equipment, the process comprising:
- a) providing a plurality of well production devices having an RFID tag associated therewith;
- b) providing a production well located within a production well field, said production well including a wellhead;
- and
- c) tracking the plurality of well production devices as the well production devices are run into the production well by receiving identity information from an RFID tag reader positioned at the wellhead as the well production devices are run into the well, where said identity information includes information relative to the identity of the RFID tag that is read by the RFID tag reader.
A production assembly for producing gas and oil, the device comprising:
- a) a production device;
- and
- b) an RFID tag secured to the production device.
