Key words: pumping unit control optimization, well pad pump station (WPPS), power efficiency increase, variable-frequency electric drive.
Well pad pump station (WPPS) pumping units are the elements of the high energy waste system. One of the reasons of the specified circumstance is a low level of pump electrical drive controllability. The article presents methods and a control system enabling to optimize operation of WPPS for power and process efficiency increase of the formation-pressure maintenance system by applying variable-frequency electric drives. Stated, that application of variable-frequency electric drives on all booster and two main pumping units is the most reasonable.
