Abstract:Artificial lift techniques are used when reservoir pressure drops below the fluid hydrostatic column weight in the well. A compressor station supplies high-pressure gas for the gas lift system, which includes a gas distribution manifold, gas lift lines to the well heads, and gas lift valves. Gas lift has many benefits, but the source of gas and the number of compression stages needed to lift reservoir fluid to the surface are major drawbacks. This paper critically examined this drawback and found a steady sour… Show more
