This paper will present results of a field slippage test and compare these results with laboratory testing of pump slippage presented in the 1998 Southwestern Petroleum Short Course paper. This is progress report #2, with the ultimate goal being to present an empirical equation which will accurately represent the down-hole slippage. The current results should be useful to operators for selection of clearances between metal plungers and barrels.
