... in gas wells. The subsurface compressor can reverse the vicious cycle of liquid loading, which decreases gas production from a gas well and leads to premature abandonment, by creating a virtuous cycle of increased gas and condensate production. The complete process from well analysis, performance...

... Abstract Conventional plunger lifting is a transient process that consists of cyclic openings and closings of a gas well. Because of this complex behavior, using traditional physics-based models to simulate the coupled behavior of reservoir and wellbore performance is computationally rigorous...

... Abstract Gas lift operations in toe-down gas wells are usually dictated by convenience or knowledge based on previous experience. Parameters such as end of tubing location and packer placement are vital in determining efficacy of gas lift operations, alongside injection rate and injection...

... Abstract A systematic experimental study on two-phase air-water was carried out to evaluate the existence of severe slugging in toe-up gas wells. Experiments were conducted in a facility with a 2-in. ID and 62.6-ft. long lateral section and a 41-ft. vertical section. The lateral section...

... Abstract Liquid loading has been an issue for mature gas wells due to declining reservoir energy. In mature fields, one of the methods used to mitigate this problem is plunger lift. However, the design of plunger lift may still question the premise of optimization. This paper presents a new...
