Technological advancements in directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing have led to an abundance of natural gas production in the United States that is fundamentally changing the energy landscape.

Gas-lift (GL) operational inefficiencies are responsible for up to 5% of production shortfall in a typical oil well. A key difficulty is that surveillance, intervention, and optimization activities ...

Key insight: All lift systems target the same physics: reduce mixture density or add head so that nodal balance at the wellbore yields the desired rate. 2.3 Select lift method aligned to fluid, depth, ...

Deliquification of a low-pressure gas well requires a different approach, tools, and staffing than artificially lifting an oil well. There is no “silver bullet” that will solve all deliquification ...

Artificial lift is a process used on oil wells to increase pressure within the reservoir and encourage oil to the surface. When the natural drive energy of the reservoir is not strong enough to push ...
