Paper: Tubing Anchors -- Should We Use Them

Is your company likely to have worn tubing couplings or holes worn in the casing caused by tubing movement in the next few years? Are the tubing threads or even the body of the tubing likely to break by repeated stresses of transfer load? Do you think that there is likely to be a loss of efficiency in pumping due to movement of the tubing at the pump end? Could it be possible that low pump efficiency could be due to the leaky thread in the tubing, resulting from the tubing threads working? If the answer is "Yes," then it is entirely possible that you should use tubing anchors.
