Echometer Company offers the following seminars:
Five-Day Computerized Well Analyzer Seminar
Trouble Shooting Plunger Lift and Gas Wells Seminar
Echometer Company offers two-day seminars at the locations listed below. The seminars are offered free of charge.
The first day covers well analysis including:
The effects of static and producing bottomhole pressures on well production
Calculation of bottomhole pressures from casing pressure and acoustic liquid level depth measurements
Gaseous liquid columns
Pump capacity and setting depth
Dynamometer data acquisition and analysis
Pump cards
Downhole gas separators
Motor power/current analysis
Acoustic pressure transient testing
Problem wells and common production methods are discussed
The second day covers the theory and operation of acoustic and dynamometer instruments.
Both the analog and digital Echometers are discussed. The computerized Echometer Well Analyzer is a superior digital instrument which gives a complete well analysis. The analog Model M is a strip chart acoustic instrument that is reliable and simple to operate.
Minor repair work to Echometer equipment by Echometer personnel is performed only on the 1st day of the schools for companies attending the 2-day seminar.

A series of "HOW TO" WORKSHOPS will be held in Wichita Falls. This Workshop will focus on set-up, data acquisition and TWM software use for the Well Analyzer liquid level, dynamometer and electrical power measurements. The workshop covers, set-up, operation and maintenance of the Well Analyzer, acoustic fluid level data acquisition and quality control, calculation of accurate fluid levels and producing and static bottomhole pressures, and acquisition and quality control of dynamometer data and motor power. Basic data analyses are also discussed and applied to detecting the most common abnormal well operation. During the workshop, the participants will be expected to participate in hands-on exercises in the classroom and the field to practice acquisition of the data. Echometer Company requires that during field practice and demonstration, each participant follow his/her company's safety rules and regulations and use their recommended safety equipment. It is recommended that each person bring the Well Analyzer laptop to use during the workshop.

Echometer Company offers a 5-day seminar on Trouble Shooting Plunger Lift and Gas Wells. Techniques used to analyze field data collected on various lift methods will be presented throughout the seminar. Use of the Echometer Well Analyzer permits immediate identification of liquid loading problems in underperforming gas wells. The topics covered in this seminar are Gas Well Deliquification, Identifying Liquid Loaded Gas Wells, Analyzing & Trouble Shooting Plunger Lifted wells, and review of all methods used to remove liquid loading from gas wells.
Trouble Shooting Plunger Lift and Gas Wells Seminar JAN. 28-FEB. 1, 2008 -- RED DEER
APR. 7-11, 2008 -- WICHITA FALLS
OCT. 20-24, 2008 -- WICHITA FALLS
This advanced 3-day seminar offered by Echometer provides guidance on using Dynamometer, Counterbalance, and Power data collected using the Echometer Well Analyzer. Analysis of the data will allow the participant to identify and solve sucker rod pumping problems. The general format of the seminar will be a collection of one-hour mini-topics. Each mini-topic will consist of a 30 minute presentation followed by the class participants using TWM software installed on their individual laptops to investigate the presentation’s highlighted topic. Knowledge gained from attending this seminar will increase the participant’s skill in troubleshooting sucker rod lifted wells. After attending this seminar the participant should be able to identify well problems and recommend corrective actions. Application of these analysis techniques to sucker rod lifted wells will increase profitability due to decreased repair cost and increased production.
