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
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-
ton subsurface pump designs provide a wide range of application.
The jet pump provides high volume production rate capacity with no moving
parts, but requires higher reservoir energy while the piston pump will produce the
well to very low reservoir pressure.
Together, OHI jet and piston pumps offer a wide range of applications. However,
hydraulic pumping is generally considered when the toughest problems develop.
OHI hydraulic pumping systems produce economically and reliably from deep wells
with solids, sand, paraffin, heavy oil, water, gas or corrosive fluids. OHI pumps are
also easily installed in crooked wells, deviated wells, offshore platforms, remote jun-
gle areas, urban areas, and environmentally conscious areas. Special pump designs
are available for such completions as sliding sleeves, gas lift mandrels, coil tubing,
DST, well cleaning and testing.
OHI pumps are economical, rugged, and most models are field repairable.
However, the greatest advantage of hydraulic pumping is that the subsurface pump
can be retrieved by reversing fluid flow, eliminating the time and cost for wireline or
workover rigs.

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.

Oilwell Hydraulics, Inc. jet pumps offer the most reliable, economical and well-designed equipment to
pump a well. OHI offers a wide selection of sizes and advanced materials for the petroleum and
mining industries.
Jet Pump Operation:
High-pressure power fluid provides a high veloci-
ty jet stream at the nozzle that intermixes with
well fluids through a mixing tube called throat.
The mixture passes through a diffuser where
increasing flow area reduces flow velocity and
increases pressure sufficient to lift the combined
fluids to surface.
Production rate is determined by the energy pro-
vided by the nozzle pressure through the area
ratio between the throat and nozzle combina-
tion, along with reservoir energy at the pump. A
wide range of production rate and lift capacity is
available through the combination of different
throats and nozzles. Performance curves assist
in optimization.

Assembly-
BHA
Free pump instal-
lations permit cir-
culation of the

main function of
the BHA is to
receive the pump,
provide sealing
bores, and land-
ing nipple (no-go)
for the standing
valve. Standard
BHA connections
are: box up/pin
down 8 RD, EUE
thread. The
design of the BHA
can accommo-
date OPF, CPF
and/or gas vented
completions. In
standard multiple

tions the BHA and
pump are thread-
ed to the power

tubing and other
tubing strings are
stabbed into a

Dummy Pump
The dummy free pump
is a bottomhole assem-
bly plug to permit tub-
ing hydrostatic pressure
testing. The dummy
pump sits on the stand-

seals to isolate tubing.
The dummy pump can
also serve as a tubing
drift and can be circu-
lated in and out of
the well.
Packer Nose
A free pump requires
a packer nose
attached to the top of
the pump to provide a
seal against the tubing
during pump installa-
tion and retrieval. The
standard packer nose
consists of two elas-
tomer packer cups
and check valve to
control fluid flow as
well as a standard
wireline fishing neck.
Standing Valve
Wireline retrievable
standing valves serve
as check valves below
the pump and sit on
the bottomhole assem-
bly-seating shoe.
Standard units include
a knock out plug to
equalize pressure dur-
ing retrieval and bot-
tom-threaded connec-
tion for adaptation to
bottomhole pressure
recorders. Available in
