Triol AK06
       Variable frequency drive for electric submersible pumps

General Description


       Purpose:
     Triol AK06 variable frequency drive (VFD) is intended to control and protect electric submersible pumping units (ESPU) with nominal power from 16 to 1450 kW. The Triol AK06 provides open-loop scalar control (V/f control) for induction or synchronous motors and sensorless control for brushless DC motors.

 

       Main Features and Benefits:

Features

Benefits

Periodic pump On-Off operation when the well inflow falls below the ESP rated capacity

Increases overall oil production by adapting to actual oil well conditions

Provision for integration into a higher-level automated control system to allow for communicating energy consumption and submersible telemetry data to a higher-level system.

Increases effectiveness of the ESP system thanks in part to real-time process monitoring and analysis.

 Flying start

Decreases ESP downtime and increases oil production. Increases ESP availability.

Provisions for short-term pressure changes on the oil reservoir , “surging” and “shaking” modes

Increases oil well inflow.

Provisions for “swinging” and kick-start “swinging” to unlock  ESP in case of mechanical jam

Decreases ESP downtime. Increases availability.

“Soft Start with Synchronization” holds output frequency for a preset time upon the start prior to its further increase

Increases reliability of the ESP system.

VFD maintains process parameters  (pressure, oil level, pump vibration) and output current and motor speed within preset limits

Increases reliability and effectiveness of the ESP system.  

Motor current optimization through automatic adjustment of output voltage to frequency ratio at any given frequency

Boosts energy efficiency due to lower motor current.

VFD and pump protection functions

Increases reliability of the ESP system. Reduces maintenance costs. Longer life for the system.

“Manual”, “Automatic”, or ‘Automatic with Preset Time” restart depending on whether the motor needs to restart  automatically after a fault occurs or wait for operator’s command

Decreases ESP downtime in case of automatic restart.

VFD starts ESP after a preset time delay since power becomes available

Increases reliability of the ESP system.

On-site and remote (including LAN) control of process parameters

Simplifies control and increases effectiveness of the ESP system.

Functionality


       The Triol AK06 offers the following functions:

  • Soft start and stop of the motor with preset acceleration and braking rate (Hz/s);
  • “Manual”, “Automatic” or “Automatic with preset time” modes determine whether the motor starts automatically after a fault occurs or awaits the operator’s command;
  • Flying start mode starts ESP when the forced counter-rotation is induced by the load on the pump (turbine rotation). The Triol AK06 smoothly reduces the shaft's rotation speed and then reverses it to the forward direction without the current overload. In oil extraction, this mode allows immediately starting the motor, rather than waiting for the oil to drain back into the pipe and for the turbine rotation to eventually stop gearing;
  • “Current optimization” mode changes the output voltage to get the minimum full load current at fixed output frequency;
  • Start and stop according to a preset time configuration;
  • Local and distant operating parameter control;
  • Change output frequency according to a preset time configuration;
  • Operating the motor in field weakening region by raising the output frequency above nominal;
  • Starting ESP after supply is delivered after a preset time;
  • Maintaining a preset technological parameter (pressure, ESM current, vibration, liquid level, ESM load);
  • Starting ESP in “swinging” mode; “kick start swinging” mode can be used to unblock ESP in the case of mechanical jamming;
  • “Soft start with synchronization” holds a frequency for a preset time upon starting and then continues to start operation;
  • Starting ESP in the “unjamming” mode delivers maximum torque at low frequency;
  • Continuous monitoring of ESP isolation resistance and turning the motor off when isolation drops under a certain preset value;

       The Triol AK06 protects ESPs from the following:

  • High current;
  • Underload;
  • Overload;
  • Low “cable – ESP chassis” insulation resistance;
  • High ESP temperature (with submersible telemetry);
  • Low base oil pressure (using submersible telemetry);
  • High vibration level (using submersible telemetry); and
  • High pipeline pressure (using contact pressure gauge).
