About Beautech

	Ernest Beauregard established BeauTech, Inc. operated in 1980 in Perryton, Texas. Mr. Beauregard gained prominence in the field of plunger lift technology at Ferguson Beauregard, a company he co-founded and has become the world’s foremost supplier in this field. Steven K. Newton came on board in 1984 as manager. Mr Newton not only developed sales of the Furguson Beauregard equipment line but also developed and expanded sales of other equipment and services including associated wireline service, HiQual lease fencing and livestock products and of course BeauTech's own patented SLOW JACK™ System which is presently being globally marketed. In 1991 Mr. Newton became Vice President and General Manager of BeauTech, Inc. then in 1999 Mr. Newton purchased the company from the Beauregard family after Ernest "Bo" Beauregard's untimely death in 1997. The primary thrust of BeauTech's mission is to extend economic limits and service marginal wells with liquid loading problems. Recognizing that economic limits could be extended by dramatically cutting lifting costs BeauTech patented improvements to an existing technique, hence the trademarked and now patented SLOW JACK™. Some areas remain open for distribution of the SLOW JACK™. If you are interested in becoming a distributor for Slow Jack™ please contact Steve Newton, steve@beautechinc.com, or call (806) 435-3301.

Slow Jack™ is a Trademark of BeauTech, Inc.

SLOW JACK™ is a simple yet effective means to reduce strokes per minute (SPM) in order to match the inflow of your formation. The SLOW JACK™ unit installs in series with the existing belt drive on conventional Beam Pump Units. The double belt arrangement increases the mechanical advantage and allows the operator to adjust SPM below the normal limits while maintaining current production. Reduction of SPM results in substantial savings.

Fewer rod failures

Fewer tubing failures

Longer pump runs

Dramatically increased pump efficiency

Less surface equipment failures

Lower horsepower requirements

In the past, a faster stroke was used to create quick compression inside the pump to compensate for gas interference. In addition, the practice of "tagging Bottom" was commonly used in an attempt to jar the traveling valve ball off seat in the event of gas lock. If gas lock occurs at the lower SPM possible with the SLOW JACK™, a quality gas lock breaker may be installed in the pump to mechanically eliminate the problem.

FEWER STROKES PER MINUTE PRODUCE SAVINGS

IN APPLICATIONS WHERE FLUID PRODUCTION IS LIMITED

	Every 2 strokes per minute reduction saves over 1,000,000 strokes per year. ( Less wear and tear on ALL moving parts above and below surface and substantial power savings.)
	As SPM is reduced, down hole stroke becomes more predictable and synchronized with surface equipment. ( Less rod failures.)
	Lower differential across the standing valve. (Less gas break out in the pump.)
	Gas lock problems are eliminated by installing a quality "Gas Lock Breaker"* (Better gas separation in annulus and no lost production.) *(a mechanical device installed in the pump which makes it impossible to gas lock if spaced properly).
	Less movement of unanchored tubing. ( Reduced annular foaming.)
	Production can be controlled in unstable formations. ( Less sand influx )

THE APPLICATION OF SLOW JACK™
ON PROPER CANDIDATES RESULTS IN LOWER LIFTING COSTS AND AN EXTENSION OF ECONOMIC LIMITS.
