Featured Equipment

Dura-Lift HCB. The beam pump, retired.

A long-stroke hydraulic pumping unit engineered to replace the conventional beam pump jack — up to 336" of stroke, constant velocity, wellhead-mounted, and a fraction of the weight. Paired with our proprietary smart controller for adaptive pump-off protection and remote SCADA.

Shipping now DL-10 · DL-20 · DL-30 · DL-40 · DL-50
Long stroke
up to 336"

Fewer strokes per barrel. Less rod fatigue. Rod stretch becomes a fraction of total stroke.

Constant velocity
no sine wave

Controlled accel/decel at reversal points protects rods and tubing from dynamic loads.

Lightweight & modular
2,500–5,400 lbs

vs. 27,000–62,000 lbs for an equivalent beam unit. Fits on an 18' trailer. No concrete base.

Install & relocate
< 2 hrs

Crane-set on wellhead. Can be moved to another well the same day.

Why HCB wins over a beam unit

  • Wellhead-mounted cylinder — cylinder rod ties directly to the sucker rod, no polished rod
  • Precision vertical alignment eliminates side loads
  • One moving part, enclosed in a protected pedestal
  • 7" HMI color touchscreen — stroke length & speed adjustable while running
  • Independent up/down stroke speed & accel/decel control
  • Remote SCADA via satellite or broadband
  • Electric motor or gas engine prime mover
  • Our proprietary smart control upgrade — learns well behavior, prevents pump-off stress, auto-optimizes energy consumption

Sizing your unit

To size the motor, pump, SPM, and model correctly, we collect a well data sheet covering:

  • Pump set & total depth
  • Current & estimated production (TBFPD)
  • Tubing & casing sizes
  • Bottom hole temperature & pressure
  • Fluid characteristics (H2S, CO2, paraffin, sand)
  • Prime mover preference

Baker Tubulars. The rod string, handled.

Premium tubular goods for the upstream rod-pump string — sucker rods, pony rods, sinker bars, polished rods, and couplings. A natural companion to the Dura-Lift HCB: we size the unit, you get the right rod string in the hole, and the whole system is sourced from one Houston partner.

Supplier partner API-grade · Houston, TX
Sucker rods
Grades D, K, KD, C

Full diameter range for conventional and H2S / CO2-sour environments.

Pony rods
2' · 4' · 6' · 8'

Spacing rods to dial in stroke geometry and pump clearance.

Sinker bars
1¼" – 1½"

Weighted bars to keep the string in tension on the downstroke — critical on deep & deviated wells.

Polished rods & couplings
Full & Slim

Spray-metal polished rods, T-grade and spray-metal couplings — matched to the rod string grade.

Why we pair it with Dura-Lift

  • Long-stroke units put different cyclic loads on the rod string — string design matters
  • API-spec rods, couplings, and sinker bars sized to the Dura-Lift load class (10k → 50k lbs)
  • One PO, one delivery — unit, string, and spares from the same Houston team
  • Single point of accountability on warranty, inspection, and field service

About

Twenty years around wells.

OnixOil has strategically curated a team adept at recognizing value, enhancing production, overseeing leases, and optimizing operations to enhance shareholder value. Operating as a proven-developed-producing (PDP) centered entity, we focus on mitigating steep decline curves and geological uncertainties linked with exploration and new well establishment.

The scalability of this approach inherently bolsters the business strategy — our management diligently pursues the economic expansion of working interests through strategic acquisitions within targeted opportunity zones.
