Rod & Tubing Diagnostics
Rod and tubing problems are among the most common causes of reduced production and premature equipment failure. WES uses proven diagnostic methods to locate rod stretch, tubing leaks, parted rods, spacing issues, and gas-related problems that impact pump performance.
Rod stretch changes pump spacing and stroke timing. Sudden fillage changes, inconsistent strokes, or reduced production often point to stretch, which we confirm using fluid-level and pump-card readings.
Yes. Most tubing leaks show up in acoustic data, fluid-level behavior, or pump-card signatures. We can usually identify a leak without pulling rods or tubing.
Parted rods commonly result from wear, corrosion, overload, or improper spacing. Our diagnostics reveal where the failure occurred and what caused it, helping prevent repeat issues.
Consultation & Planning
Share well details and objectives. We confirm access, choose the right tests (fluid-level, dyno, SBHP), and schedule your field visit.
Field Diagnostics
On site, we run Echometer® shots, capture pump-cards, and conduct SBHP as needed—documenting conditions, traces, and readings.
Report & Follow-Up
Receive a clear report (often same day) with annotated traces/cards, findings, and prioritized next steps. We can help implement tunes and set a surveillance cadence.
Yes—Echometer® acoustic-trace (“gas gun”) to locate the gas/liquid interface and verify pump-intake depth.
Lease/well, county/basin, service requested (Fluid-Level/Dynamometer/SBHP), site access notes, and preferred dates.
We aim to schedule quickly based on crew availability and access. Call if timing is critical.
Often yes—when possible we’ll review on site and follow with a clear report.
Primarily Wyoming; contact us with your location and we’ll confirm options.
