Paper: SUCCESSFUL SUCKER ROD PUMPING OF PARTICULATE-LADEN FLUIDS

Sand, Iron Sulfide, Frac Sand, and other particulates produced with the fluid often cause sucker rod pumping problems that shorten sucker rod pump runs to unacceptable times, or actually prevent successful use of sucker rod pumping. Common sense methods of successfully dealing with these particulate problems will be covered as will developments in sucker rod pumps for successful particulate production.
