Optimizing 800 Wells in 8 Minutes

What once took days can now be accomplished in minutes. Ambyint’s Cognitive Card Recognition (CCR) technology allows operators to analyze up to 800 wells in just 8 minutes, delivering real-time insights that enable engineers to act quickly and effectively.

Managing rod lift wells with limited resources is a constant challenge. Important dynacards are often overlooked, leading to missed opportunities for proactive maintenance. CCR changes this by automating dynacard inspection with up to 95% accuracy. Detecting surface and downhole anomalies early allows teams to address challenges proactively, reduce downtime, and improve production efficiency—all powered by AI that never sleeps.

Anomalies Detected by CCR

CCR identifies a wide range of operational issues, providing actionable insights for optimizing performance, including:

  • Fluid Pound
  • Gas Interference
  • Worn Pump
  • Delayed Traveling Valve
  • Hole in Barrel/Tubing
  • Standing Valve Stuck Open
  • Deep Rod Part
  • Stuck Pump
  • Plunger Undertravel
  • Bad Data
  • Card Distortion
  • Tagging
  • Paraffin

In large-scale deployments, CCR consistently delivers operational excellence by automating routine inspections and freeing engineers to focus on high-priority tasks. Hundreds of wells can be analyzed in minutes, enabling teams to act on potential issues before they escalate, reducing downtime, and improving overall reliability. This efficiency minimizes workover expenses and deferred production while transforming rod lift operations from reactive troubleshooting to proactive management. With real-time analysis and actionable insights, CCR empowers teams to optimize well performance across their portfolios.
