Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring operation of an electric submersible pump or progressive cavity pump can use a backspin profile. The methods and systems can include receiving data signals indicating values for parameters regarding operation of the electric submersible pumping system during backspin and a backspin profile. One or more backspin profiles can be used to detect a failure, event, or condition associated with the pump system or a condition of a fluid associated with the pump system.
Claims20
A method for monitoring operation of equipment of a pump system, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor from at least one sensor, a parameter during backspin operation of the pump system;
- and
- providing a backspin profile using the parameter.
A system for monitoring operation of an electric submersible pump system, the system for monitoring comprising:
- at least one sensor configured to generate a parameter regarding operation of the electric submersible pump system;
- a processor in communication with the sensor and configured to:
- receive the parameter from the sensor during backspin operation of the pump system;
- and
- provide a backspin profile using the parameter.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- determine a backspin speed occurring during a backspin operation of a pump system;
- and
- provide a backspin profile using the backspin speed.
