... Abstract This work presents the results of several failure analyses of gas lift valves retrieved from Petrobras subsea wells. These valves were unable to prevent the backflow from tubing to annulus, so compromising the well integrity. The purpose of these analyses was to unveil the root causes...

... intervals while longer ones require coiled tubing straddle with higher installation complexity. However, some wells need deeper injection than the initial completion design. The wells might not be able to flow efficiently without deepening the gas lift point to optimize production to the full extent...

... Abstract Gas lift is the preferred method of artificial lift of many operators in the Delaware Basin due to high gas/oil ratio's (GOR). The volumes of produced gas have a high liquid yield creating challenges for gas lift compression and surface facilities. Condensate and water drop-out creates...

... pressure or temperature to open or close or maintain gas injection rates. This increased range of injection rates permits field wide gas lift distribution and production optimization. Unlike the standard IPO valves, the intelligent gas lift system requires no intervention to optimize production by changing...

Particular emphasis was placed on inter-chemical and ‘multiple chemical active’-material compatibilities for downhole co-injection and return to topsides with production. Three gas-lifted wells...

... Abstract In the implementation of gas lift, understanding flow behavior in highly-deviated well is critical in avoiding production loss due to liquid fallback and blockage, even in highly-productive reservoir. In this work, we utilize Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to optimize gas lift...

... Excluding stripper wells (wells producing less than 10 BBL/D of oil or 60 MCF/D of gas according to the National Energy Technology Laboratory) from the count of wells on artificial lift, continuous gas lift is the most predominant artificial lift method both on and off-shore ( Clegg et al. 1993...
