Abstract This paper presents a new technique to analyze dynamic behaviour of a sucker rod string used in the oil well industry. The main concept of the proposed approach is to replace the actual complicated system by a simpler one. This needs the output or one-time accurate solutions of the actual system. This problem is solved using D‘Alembert's solution of systems equation and the adaptive filter matrix method developed by the authors. The developed computer program performs the calculations in very short real time with reasonable accuracy, and without extensive hardware and software requirements. It has been proven that it is possible to use the transfer matrix to calculate load-displacement relations a hundred or more times in one stroke. This could be very advantageous in building new well-head controllers and other tools to control the oil wells. Introduction Rod pumping is the oldest and still the most common method of artificial lift used extensively in the oil well industry(1,2). The literature devoted to the analysis of this system is very extensive. There are different computer programs aimed at the analysis and troubleshooting of rod pumping systems(3–5), however, they require fully equipped computer hardware to perform the calculations. These calculations usually take an amount of time that is longer than the period of pumping (one stroke) and cannot be directly used to control the well in real time. In this paper, a transfer matrix method has been proposed to model the dynamic behaviour of the rod of the sucker string. The main concept of the method is to replace the solution of the mathematical model by a simple matrix operation in which the bottomhole force-displacement values are obtained as the product of the vector of the data at the polished rod end by a transfer matrix. This is an extremely fast mathematical operation, which can be performed hundreds of times during the period of one stroke and does not require any sophisticated software. The system transfer matrix for any given oil well is defined only once in advance using the filter matrix method(6–8). The matrix does not change with time and replaces the mathematical model of the analyzed system. Using this technique, the calculations of the bottomhole values can be performed very fast and in a very simple way. These calculations are easy to implement in one microprocessor. In the studies presented here, we found that to create the system transfer matrix, it is enough to replace the real system by a two-segment rod. The simplified model is solved using D‘Alembert's method(9). Using the equivalent model, the transfer matrix is created. Mathematical Modelling To analyze the performance of the oil well, the force and displacement at the polished rod are measured using a dynamometer. Then these data are used as the boundary conditions for the calculation of forces and displacements at the bottom of the rod string that defines the conditions of the pump, effectiveness of pumping, production rate, etc.
