Published purpose

The project will consist of running DV8 edge devices on a number of different wells. The Firm wants to test its mathematical model over a range of different well types in terms of depth, deviation and complexity. The wells are heavy oil wells, using rod pumps & Rotaflex surface pumping units. The edge device will gather data, complete diagnostics on downhole conditions, display the generated downhole dynamometer card to the user through the internet, and send commands to the pumping unit to speed up if more production is available, or slow down to save energy. The depth ranges from 1200 meters to 1600 meters.
