ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling a speed of a pump operating in a well. A first step involves monitoring a production flow rate of fluids produced from the well. A second step involves controlling the speed of the pump with reference to the production flow rate by increasing the speed of the pump when the production flow rate is rising and decreasing the speed of the pump when the production flow rate is declining.
