Abstract
A method includes receiving acoustic signals from one or more acoustic sensors that are coupled to a beam pump unit. The method also includes identifying a frequency of the beam pump unit in the acoustic signals. The method also includes detecting an outlier in the acoustic signals based at least partially upon the identified frequency. The outlier represents an operational issue with the beam pump unit.
