POWER CONSUMPTION TEST FIBERGLASS-SINKERBAR (FGSB) DESIGN VS. API STEEL DESIGN
A series of tests measuring power consumption were conducted at the Texas Tech Red Raider Test Well. This test facility is located 5 miles northeast of the campus of Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. This paper introduces the Red Raider Test Well and all of it's abilities for testing various components of a rod pumping artificial lift system to unprecedented level of accuracy. This test measured the power consumed by the beam pumping system with all variables held constant except the surface stroke length and rodstring design. The result of this test was a 14.9 % power savings utilizing a Fiberglass
