The IPS Pacemaker Plunger Lift System utilizes a proven,
patented, two piece plunger design. The large bybass area of
the plunger, coupled with high-strength materials and other
proprietary system components, allows production companies
to increase production and recoverable reserves.
F E AT U R E S A N D B E N E F I T S :
• Removes more wellbore fluid by making more trips per day.
• Eliminates the need for any shut in time.
• Works well with on-site compression.
• Provides a deliquification solution for slim-hole, tubing-less
and packer completions.
• Operates with minimal bottom-hole pressure.
• Eliminates line pressure spikes.
• Maintains a low flowing bottom-hole pressure
• Broadens the application of plunger lift technology to
also benefit wells that are above critical rate.
A P P L I CAT I O N S :
• 6” to 19” long Steel Sleeve that works in higher GLR wells
• Combine with Tungsten, Cobalt, Steel, Zirconia,
Silicone Nitride, or Titanium ball.
• Fluid and gas rates determine ball weight requirements.
• Early intervention for liquid loading.

The Grappler uses new technology
to improve the original, patented, two piece
plunger design. IPS added detent balls in the seat of
the sleeve to keep the plunger ball securely engaged
during the upstroke of the plunger trip. With the
plunger ball securely engaged, the sleeve will be able
to carry more fluids to surface and will increase trip
efficiency. The increase in efficiency will also make
optimizing easier by eliminating ball and sleeve
separation. This broadens the spectrum of potential
wells, making the Grappler one of the most versatile
plungers on the market.

The Padded Center Rod Plunger retains a superior seal in an
intermediate bypass plunger. It is designed to fall at medium speeds
unlike most bypass plungers. It does not require any flow time at the
surface to separate a secondary piece. This tool is designed as an
intermediate step between Pacemaker candidates and conventional
plunger candidate wells. The Center Rod Plunger requires no additional
equipment at the surface to adapt the well for this application, and can
run in wells with existing subsurface equipment. This plunger has a one
piece center rod that runs through the fishing neck. Pinning the fishing
neck through the side of the threads allows for maximum strength and
impact tolerance

IPS Ultra Seal pad plungers offer the most advanced sealing
mechanism in the market. The key to the success of the
Ultra Seal plunger is an HNBR ™ rubber seal attached to the body
of the plunger between interlocking tabs under the pads. The
interlocking tabs serve as a protector to the ultra seal which
decreases gas slippage under the pads. The result is less fluid
fallback during the plunger cycle to the surface which means the
plunger requires less gas pressure to make a run.

IPS Super Seal pad plungers offers advanced sealing technology.
The four pad interlocked system is available in single, double,
and triple pad designs. The interlocking tabs serve as a protector
to the Super-seal which decreases gas slippage under the pads.
The result is less fluid fallback during the plunger cycle to the
surface and full contact with the tubing walls. Wear indicators are
manufactured into the pads to show plunger life.
D E S C R I P T I O N :
The IPS Mini pad plunger offers exceptional value along with
strong sealing properties. The Mini Pad utilizes three interlocking
pads per row that also lock into the mandrel providing an
excellent seal at a great value. The spiral nose design will aid in
the removal of solids and keep the plunger spinning to reduce
negative wear patterns.

The IPS Clean Out Plunger is a low maintenance and economical
tool. These plungers are constructed with heat treated 4140 steel
or 17-4 stainless and can be ordered with a solid or hollow body.
They are extremely versatile and can handle many task ranging
from paraffin or scale buildup reduction to temporarily use for
sand cleanout. We offer different lengths and outer diameters for
specific applications.

The IPS Brush Plunger has a flexible brush spirally wound onto a
solid mandrel constructed with under cuts, ensuring de-scaling of
the tubing. These plungers are constructed with heat treated 4140
steel. The brush element employed is a stiff, heat resistant, durable
nylon material. IPS utilizes this element based on customer feed-
back and numerous field test results, proving it is a brush plunger
that has a longer life span than the previous technology in other
existing models.

The Sphere is the most recent addition in the IPS line of conventional
plungers. With progressive thinking IPS has developed the lowest
friction plunger on the market. The circular design allows this plunger
to reach deeper into deviations and capture fluid that was
previously unreachable by conventional designs. This is the first
plunger to reach the coveted 90 degree mark. The Sphere is ideally
suited for doglegged wells that often wear conventional plungers flat on
one side. With the low friction design, and high rotation effect,
production on marginal wells can be significantly increased. This low
friction design also allows maximum fall rates that have been tracked
at 500+ft/min.

The IPS Pacemaker down hole spring is a true heavy duty tool. It
combines the typical spring design with a innovative secondary
bellville washer kit in the cage. At 70% spring compression the
washer pack engages eliminating the out spring from stacking.
The same Pacemaker spring can be utilized and set with many
different hold downs. In addition the spring can also have a ball
installed in the cage to serve as a standing valve. This spring
has high flow, tapered gas passages to protect your tubing while
maximizing flow through. It is designed for continual run use
where durability and fatigue resistance is of the up most
importance.

plunger arrives at the Multi-Stage assembly with a load that is staged for the next cycle. This fluid load remains staged due to a standing valve in the Multi-Stage assembly. Packoff Pressure Relief Standing Valve
The IPS pressure relief standing valve (PRSV) is capable of attaching any IPS bumper-spring assembly to retain the optimal amount of fluid in the tubing string. The engineered design will allow fluid to exit the tubing so the well does not liquid load, but sill contain a measurable amount above the spring. The PRSV will prolong bumper-spring, and plunger life in a well, unload a substantial amount of liquids during each plunger trip. The PRSV will also allow for the well to be pumped on/killed for safety precaution. The Pressure Release Standing Valve is a highly effective mechanism used to control the amount of liquid in the tubing string. Pressure Release Standing Valve uses the tubing and casing pressure to regulate the amount of liquid in the tubing string. With the amount of liquid stabilized, plunger lift will be more effective and the number of dry runs will be minimized. When the amount of pressure on the valve reaches 12lbs, the compression spring will contract and unseat the ball, which will then allow the liquid to fall below the check valve.

M U LT I STAG E TO O LMulti Stage Tool
The IPS Multi-Stage system fully utilizes your available bottom hole pressure by staging the well. This is done by moving part of your energy source under each stage. By staging the well, the fluid load is lifted to a shallower depth. FEATURES & BENEFITS Applied to a wide variety of applications, including:
Packer completions Tapered strings Extreme low GLR situations Ability to unload high fluid amounts Wells become candidates that struggle or fail to run conventional plunger lift Less shut in time compared to a conventional system Available pressure relief standing valves
OPERATION The Multi-Stage system works by running multiple plunger lift stages to optimize well production. The bottom stage assembly is a traditional plunger set up with a bottom hole spring and stop to run a conventional plunger. The bottom stage spring and plunger set up depend on client or technician preference and well characteristics. When the well is opened, the bottom stage moves a column of fluid up the hole. As it moves up the hole, the head gas “bubble” above it is used as an artificial energy source to help drive the top plunger in the secondary stage. This plunger drives a column of fluid to surface, lifting a lighter load to a shallower depth. The bottom
