PRESSURE PUMPING

Check out our blog post HERE, and our most recent brochure for more detail on pressure pumping applications

Overview

Hydraulic frac pumps require frequent changes of the reciprocating plunger seal packing. Keeping the packing properly lubricated while pumping is a necessity to help extend its life. The goal is to keep positive pressure on the packing bore and film strength on the plunger by delivering small-metered shots of either grease or oil. Long pumping hours, harsh environments, and contamination put a strain on the lube systems used to achieve this goal.

Bill Spitzer & Associates provides several solutions to the market from a standard Pump-In-a-Box to our Large Capacity FlowMaster Packages.

Value

• Large Capacity FlowMaster Packages

  • Large reservoir capacity increases reliability by minimizing contamination caused by poor refilling 
techniques

  • Large reservoir capacity improves safety by keeping frac hands out of the iron during pump time for grease system refill

  • Increase in packing life by quickly replenishing the film strength on the plunger through smaller shots 
of grease more frequently 


  • Components are specifically designed to handle the rough environment, which minimizes field 
“aggravation” caused by distribution block failure or pump element failure 


  • Reduced lubricant consumption leading to significant cost savings in grease or oil

  • System is designed to perform for years versus months 


  • Cost of ownership much lower. Return on investment is less than one year 


  • Market proven over 10 years in the field

• Pump-In-a-Box

  • Industry Standard

  • Simple and cost effective solution

  • Easily replaceable upon failure
