Purpose
• Compared “predictive” steel, “vertical”
rod string design results to actual
dynamometer cards using:
– Q Rod
– Rod Star
– S Rod
– Lufkin LoadCalB (API)
– Conoco Modified API (no sinker bars)

Results
• Comparison showed not all the required loads and nondimensional operating parameters that are required for
optimization and troubleshooting were provided by all
the programs
• Inaccuracies may be within 10 to 15% for simple string
• When sinker bars installed and comparison made,
inaccuracies may be from -40% to +25% of actual
measurements
• Maintained belief that programs cannot accurately
predict dynamic effects of sinker bars
• Some programs were changed over time plus new
capabilities of designing effect of well bore deviations
included

Rod Design Software Evaluated
• Programs considered:
– QRod
– RodStar
– Srod
• Program defaults used
• Assumption for pump/plunger friction = -200 pounds
While some wells reported with guides, deviation surveys
not available so assumption all wells vertical
• Assumed friction coefficient = 0.2 no guides; 0.3 w/guides
• One program did not have the Rotoflex geometry in
analysis capabilities; so CW Conventional unit used

Conclusions & Recommendations
• Currently program 2 &3 are very close to the
same accuracy
• Program 3 had a consistent -200 pound
minimum pump load (MPL) which was related
to the 200 pound of assumed pump friction
• If this friction was removed, then MPL would
be very close

29
Conclusions & Recommendations - cont
• Prog 1 had consistently the worse accuracy
and dramatically over-estimated MPL
• Prog 1 & 3 have provided all the load and nondimensional pumping parameters while prog 2
still is missing N/No’
• While there were instances where there was a
negative MPL, these loads did not increase
nor stay applied over the plunger stroke
length
