Hydraulic pumping produces oil wells by the transfer of energy through fluid to
power the subsurface pump. The subsurface pump uses the power fluid pressure
and volume to lift well fluids to the surface. Power fluid can be well fluids, oil or
Proven solutions water. In most cases, well fluids are cleaned by a power fluid conditioning system
and stored for injection back in the well by a surface multiplex pump. Jet and pis-
to oil well pumping ton subsurface pump designs provide a wide range of application.
The jet pump provides high volume production rate capacity with no moving
problems around parts, but requires higher reservoir energy while the piston pump will produce the
well to very low reservoir pressure.

Hydraulic
Pumping
System
The dual vessel power
fluid conditioning system
with cyclone solids separa-
tors provides efficient eco-
nomical wellsite fluid treat-
ment for remote operation.
The system includes pressure
control valves to maintain set
differential pressures direct-
ing fluid through the cyclone
solids separators. Clean
power fluid is stored in the
horizontal vessel to feed the
surface power pump. Vessel
piping allows discharge of
produced fluids and gas to
the wellsite flowline through
a gravity dump system.
Oilwell Hydraulics, Inc. offers a complete line of surface power and fluid conditioning systems,
from the centralized multiple well automated pumping station to the unitized transportable test pack-
age. Systems are engineered to efficiently separate well fluids and remove sand, solids, and gas for
use as power fluid. Clean power fluid reduces wear, repair frequency, and operating cost.
OHI systems provide reliable, rugged and economical solutions to oil well production, competitive
with all other lift methods.
Surface Pump: Proven high pressure positive displacement plunger pumps available in many horse-
power ranges that meet your needs. Components and accessories are selected for reliable operation
in high pressure continuous hydraulic pumping. Installation must consider pump NPSH requirements.
See pump specifications section for details.
Central Power Fluid Treatment: Central systems provide power fluid tank designs considering reten-
tion time and features to maximize separation of gas and minimize turbulence to remove solids and
sand. Existing process equipment provides added treatment. Cyclone solids separators add power
fluid conditioning efficiency.
Valves, Controls, & Piping: Accessories are supplied to insure 5000-psi pressure rating, full bore
and corrosion resistant materials. Discharge piping will include long radius bends to avoid excessive
vibration. Relief valve and drain outlets are piped to environmentally secured areas.

Type BM Pump
Maximum production

is provided through
increased plunger and
piston diameters made
possible by flowing flu-
ids outside the pump
through ports in the
bottomhole assembly.
Double acting free

tiple external seals to
maximize flow, and
power to lift from
greater depths.

range.
Type DM Pump
Maximum lift capacity with maximum production range is provided with the same double acting large
plunger and piston design provided by the BM pump, but with the added power of a second engine
piston to increase horsepower capacity. The double engine feature reduces injection pressures.
Designed as a free pump with multiple external seals to maximize fluid flow through bottom hole
assembly porting.
Type EM Pump
Optimum high volume pumping capacity is provided by a long slow stroke pump design that
minimizes wear, and operating cost. The double acting high compression ratio, multiple seal,
free pump design also reduces chances of gas locking. The special design uses only two pistons
that exchange roles from pump plunger to engine piston in the upstroke and downstroke.
Type M Pump
High volume deep well production capacity in a double acting single seal pump
to provide the greatest level of versatility. The internally ported pump was
recently developed by OHI (patent pending), to provide the highest possible
capacity with the simplicity and adaptability of a single seal pump. The double
engine design increases horsepower capacity to permit production from deeper
wells. Also available in double pump end to provide higher volume production.
Adaptable to most bottomhole assemblies.
