Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015009452A1] An improved apparatus and method are provided, for pumping fluids, such as water and/or hydrocarbons, from a subterranean formation or reservoir, through use of a cranked rod pumping (cranked rod pumping) apparatus for imparting reciprocating substantially vertical motion to a rod of a sucker-rod pump having a pump stroke. The cranked rod pumping apparatus includes a motor driven cranked mechanical actuator arrangement. The cranked mechanical actuator arrangement includes a cable coupled to a substantially vertically moveable member which is attached to the rod of the sucker-rod pump for imparting and controlling vertical motion of the rod of the sucker-rod pump.
