This makes field programming and maintenance simple since an expensive notebook computer and appropriate cables are not required to be brought to the field. Besides duplicating all programmable and readable functions with the controller in the field, the AMS 300 software also archives all reported pressure data and allows the user to graph this data for a meaningful visual presentation. This is extremely helpful in aligning a well for optimum production as well as trouble shooting when problems arise. As the software evolves, additional functions will be added such as flow measurement, liquid levels, leasehold security, etc. Remote automation can easily be justified economically when wedded to a production enhancing technology such as plunger lift.
Typical systems pay for themselves on the production increase in less than six months.
This does not take into consideration the vast labor savings the system can provide. We at Well Master would urge you to strongly consider the AMS 300 automation system with your next plunger lift installation. The Group Screen is where wells are organized into groups depending upon a pumper's route or a specific geographic area. There can be any number of groups and any number of wells in any group. Each group can be programmed with a polling time where the wells in that group are quarried automatically by the computer and relevant data is downloaded.
