DE0931 : Advanced Gas Lift Design & Deliquification

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of advanced gas lift design and deliquification. It covers the symptoms of liquid loading in gas wells; the critical velocity to analyze wells loading or not; the techniques with nodal analysis and sizing tubing; and the proper selection, sizing and operation of compression. During this interactive course, participants will learn the continuous (bypass), conventional and gas assisted plunger lift; the use of foam and beam pumps to deliquefy gas wells; the hydraulic pumps; the electrical submersible pumps and progressive cavity pumps; the gas lift technology, gas lift process, various types of gas lift system and the advantages and limitation of gas lift; the unloading gas lift wells, gas lift equipment and valves mechanism; and the dual gas lift installation, gas lift system evaluation, surging production, troubleshooting gas lift wells and production optimization.
