Paper: Slippage Variation Analysis of Top and Bottom Hold Down Pump Configurations

Harbison-Fischer has always promoted new product development through a continuous research program to provide our customers with the best technology. Part of this research interest has brought us to analyze the slippage variation between two standard pump configurations, one with a top hold down and the other with a bottom hold down. Several key variables have been involved in this theoretical analysis which will allow us to know a little more about the behavior of sucker rod pumps. Questions and discussion from the attendees will be encouraged.
