+1 for man_made=pump, man_made=fuel_pump or man_made=water_pump for an
individual pump, depending on what you are looking at.

Use man_made=pumping_station for a large facility probably with
several pumps: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/man_made=pumping_station
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag%3Aman_made%3Dpumping_station

Most small, public pumps will be located inside of or on top of a
water well, at least in the developing world. These are tagged with
man_made=water_well + pump=manual/powered on a node, and don't need a
separate feature for the pump.

Oil wells often have a large "pumpjack" or "pumping rig" on top, which
can be mapped with man_made=pumping_rig on a node or area.

The tag man_made=water_pump is already being used (800 times):
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/man_made=water_pump

There is also https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/man_made=fuel_pump
- fuel pumps, probably at gas stations?

If it is a big pumping station with several different pumps, use
man_made=pumping_station - this has already been used over 8000 times,
and there is pumping_station=sewage/waste_water/water and even a few
=gas and =oil
