Key words: well pad pump station (WPPS), specific energy consumption decrease, determination of the optimum structure of pump units, lower intrinsic curve method.
Maintenance of reservoir pressure is one of the most power-consuming processes in petroleum engineering, where the main consumers are pump units at well pad pump stations. The article specifies a procedure to determine the optimum structure of WPPS pump units to ensure the optimum structure and the priority for switch pumps on/off at minimum energy consumption to water pumping, if the scheduled assignment volume is updated.
