Lufkin 228-246-86 Pumping Unit Manufacturer: Lufkin Type: Used Location: USA Lufkin 228-246-86 Pumping Unit Benefits The Lufkin 228-246-86 is a model of a beam pumping unit, commonly referred to as a "pump jack," which is used in the oil industry for the artificial lift of hydrocarbons when the pressure in the well is insufficient for the oil to flow to the surface naturally. The specifications of this pump jack model indicate certain characteristics that provide the following benefits for oil production operations: 228: This number typically represents the peak torque rating of the unit in thousands of inch-pounds. In this case, a torque rating of 228,000 inch-pounds means the unit is capable of handling moderate loads, suitable for wells with average production requirements and depths. 246: This figure usually indicates the stroke length of the pumping unit in inches. A 246-inch stroke length allows for efficient lifting of the fluid column with each stroke, which can lead to a higher fluid recovery rate per cycle and enhance the overall production efficiency. 86: This number typically signifies the gear ratio in the gearbox of the pumping unit. An 86:1 gear ratio suggests that the unit is engineered to provide a good balance between speed and power, making it appropriate for a wide range of well conditions. Durable Construction: As with all Lufkin products, this pumping unit is built to be durable and reliable, ensuring that it can withstand the harsh conditions of oilfield environments. Energy Efficiency: The optimization of stroke length and gear ratio can contribute to more efficient energy use, which can reduce operational costs. Reduced Wear: The efficiency of the pumping action may result in less mechanical wear on the pump, rods, and tubing, leading to lower maintenance costs. Adaptability: The moderate specifications of the Lufkin 228-246-86 make it a versatile piece of equipment that can be adapted to various wells with different fluid volumes and depths. Consistent Performance: The unit's balance of torque and speed contributes to smooth and consistent operation, which is essential for maintaining continuous production and preventing equipment strain. Appropriate for a Range of Wells: This model is well-matched to low to medium production wells, supporting a variety of production strategies and depth requirements. Trusted Manufacturer: Lufkin Industries has a longstanding reputation for quality and expertise in manufacturing pumping units, providing confidence in the equipment's performance.
