Downhole Diagnostic:
Founded in 2014, Downhole Diagnostic LLC is a Midland, Texas, based business that focuses on Well Optimization & fostering Well-Being. I apply FL Shots & Dynamometer Tests with rod-pumping know how to help customers diagnose and optimize the way they are producing their wells.
I have an engineering and operations based background, so I know what is important to operators since I used to be one.
If you want to truly understand rod pumping systems--how to design, operate, troubleshoot & optimize--consider taking my comprehensive e-course: www.RodPumpingOptimization.com. It is certainly the and most informative and engaging course in the industry.
Downhole Diagnostic is represented by our (...my) mascot, the Dyno King (AKA “the Downhole Dyno”).
Shawn Dawsey:
Raised in San Antonio, TX, I attended Texas A&M and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering and a minor in Geology in 2009. I then moved to Midland, TX, where I worked for Discovery Operating (a well-established, smaller-sized operator) as a Production/Operations Engineer. It was a smaller company, so my work was diversified—managing pumpers/production, writing up workover procedures and then supervising the jobs onsite, managing frac jobs and drilling rigs, etc. The last two years at the company, I was the Production Manager. In 2014, I became a licensed Profession Engineer in the State of Texas and I left my employer to start Downhole Diagnostic.
During my 5-years with my former employer, I took a special interest in Rod Pumping Optimization and Failure Prevention. I read/studied everything I could get my hands on and eventually talked my boss into purchasing an Echometer FL Gun & Dynamometer, which is when I took my "studying" of rod pumping wells to the field. By implementing new downhole equipment designs, revamping the chemical treating program, and working with the field hands to educate and optimize the field operations—I helped spearhead a dramatic reduction in the average failure rate of our wells.
But more importantly—to understand me on a more personal level—I have a passionate zeal for living life to the fullest! I love reading, learning, and philosophizing on the deeper matters of life. I am interested in history, politics, finance, international travel (my wife is Russian!), & love deep discussions on wide-ranging topics (especially discussing the rampant propaganda & deception in our world). I think growth only comes from hard work and pushing limits ...so I get after it and grind everyday! With the most recent addition to our family, I now have three wonderful children and raising/developing them is my other passion outside of the oil industry (#DadLife).
