Custom Pumping Units

Define custom pumping unit geometries and specifications in PetroBench. Configure stroke length, gear ratios, and structural properties for simulation.

Custom Pumping Units library

Create custom pumping units when your unit isn't in the standard library.

Create a Custom Unit

  1. Click the Custom Equipment icon (next to Compare) on a simulation page
  2. Click Create Custom Pumping Unit
  3. Enter required fields:
FieldDescription
ManufacturerUnit manufacturer name
ModelModel designation
TypeUnit geometry type
ClassSize classification
  1. Add geometric parameters (A-K dimensions)
  2. Configure crank positions and stroke lengths
  3. Enter gearbox and structural ratings
  4. Click Save

The more parameters you provide, the more accurate your simulation results.

Create from Simulation

You can also create custom units while configuring a simulation:

  1. In Well Data, select Custom as the unit type
  2. Click Create Custom Pumping Unit
  3. Complete the form
  4. The new unit is immediately available

Using Custom Units

  1. In simulation Well Data, select Custom for unit type
  2. Choose manufacturer from your custom units
  3. Select the model
  4. Configure rotation and crank hole
