Paper: How Can An OperatorPumper Optimize a Rod Pumped Well

An Operator/Pumper is typically expected to produce their assigned wells in a manner that results in a maximum allowable production rate at a minimum of cost. However, they must do so with the wellbore conditions, equipment, and operating environment they as assigned. This paper will present some tools and methods that the Operator/Pumper can utilize to help optimize a rod pump well.
