Novomet Stat. ESP Reliability Analysis and Forecasting

Novomet StatPro. ESP Reliability Analysis and Forecasting

Main goals of calculation

  • Identify duration of run-lives
  • Identify weak points of equipment
  • Identify major operating factors which cause failures

Improvement of equipment
Increase duration of run-life

Data used

  • Operating time, days (run-life, days)
  • Status: still in operation or pulled out
  • Reasons of failures
  • Pulled out equipment condition – teardown results, results of ESP system components inspection

Basic steps of analysis

  1. Calculating of ESP systems run-lives
  2. Specification of all reasons shortening run-life
  3. Calculation of appearance probability of each factor causing failures, determination of major problems
  4. Calculating of reliability of ESP systems components
  5. Development of recommendations concerning improvement of equipment and increase level of operating times

Run-lives level basic evaluations

Survival function

Higher level of survival function correspond to more reliable equipment.

ESP structural analysis

  • General reliability: all types of failures are considered.
  • Operational reliability: operation-related pulls are considered: pulls due to scaling, plugging, etc.
  • Design reliability: equipment-related pulls are considered – wear, defects, etc.

Novomet Stat-Pro allows calculation of probability of each factor causing to failure

Low level of curve means that this type of failures is the main problem, which shortens run-lives
