NCC PUMP BARREL

The NCC Pump Barrel is a precision-engineered component used in sucker rod pump systems for oil extraction. It serves as the cylindrical housing for the plunger, creating the necessary seal and pressure differential to lift fluids from the wellbore to the surface.

Design & Construction

  • Material: Typically made of high-grade alloy steel, chrome-plated for wear and corrosion resistance.

  • Types:

    • Fixed Barrel: Permanently attached to the tubing string.

    • Removable Barrel: Allows for easier maintenance and replacement.

  • Internal Finish: Precision honed to ensure smooth plunger movement and optimal sealing.

  • Connections: Threaded (API-standard) for secure installation.

Key Features

  • High wear resistance due to hardened surfaces or chrome plating.

  • Precision internal diameter (ID) for tight tolerances with the plunger.

  • Pressure-rated to withstand downhole conditions.

  • Compatible with various plunger types (metal, non-metallic).

Applications

  • Used in sucker rod pumps (insert or tubing pumps).

  • Suitable for vertical, deviated, and horizontal wells.

  • Ideal for high-sand or corrosive environments when properly coated.

Standards & Specifications

  • Complies with API Spec 11AX (for pump barrels and components).

  • Manufactured to tight tolerances for leak-free operation.
