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 ...

Of the total number of wells globally to use artificial lift, 40% employ sucker rod pumps. Pump optimization generally follows established rules of thumb. More advanced pump features, such as pump off ...

Effective training helps workers understand gas hazards, respond to alarms, and reduce exposure to toxic, flammable, and oxygen-deficient atmospheres. In many industrial environments, gas detection is ...

A novel approach using computational fluid dynamics techniques provides a way for determining the characteristics of gas passing through a gas-lift valve. In the method, CFD calculations numerically ...
