Fundamentals of Gas Lift Engineering by Ali Hernandez Pdf

Fundamentals of Gas Lift Engineering: Well Design and Troubleshooting discusses the important topic of oil and gas reservoirs as they continue to naturally deplete, decline, and mature, and how more oil and gas companies are trying to divert their investments in artificial lift methods to help prolong their assets. While not much physically has changed since the invention of the King Valve in the 1940s, new developments in analytical procedures, computational tools and software, and many related technologies have completely changed the way production engineers and well operators face the daily design and troubleshooting tasks and challenges of gas lift, which can now be carried out faster, and in a more accurate and productive way, assuming the person is properly trained. This book fulfills this training need with updates on the latest gas lift designs, troubleshooting techniques, and real-world field case studies that can be applied to all levels of situations, including offshore. Making operational and troubleshooting techniques central to the discussion, the book empowers the engineer, new and experienced, to analyze the challenge involved and make educated adjustments and conclusions in the most economical and practical way. Packed with information on computer utilization, inflow and outflow performance analysis, and worked calculation examples made for training, the book brings fresh air and innovation to a long-standing essential component in a well’s lifecycle. Covers essential gas lift design, troubleshooting, and the latest developments in R&D Provides real-world field experience and techniques to solve both onshore and offshore challenges Offers past and present analytical and operational techniques available in an easy-to-read manner Features information on computer utilization, inflow and outflow performance analysis, and worked calculation training examples

Artificial Lift Methods by Tan Nguyen Pdf

This book details the major artificial lift methods that can be applied to hydrocarbon reservoirs with declining pressure. These include: the sucker rod pump, gas lift, electrical submersible pump, progressive cavity pump, and plunger lift. The design and applications, as well as troubleshooting, are discussed for each method, and examples, exercises and design projects are provided in order to support the concepts discussed in each chapter. The problems associated with oil recovery in horizontal wells are also explored, and the author proposes solutions to address the various extraction challenges that these wells present. The book represents a timely response to the difficulties associated with unconventional oil sources and declining wells, offering a valuable resource for students of petroleum engineering, as well as hydrocarbon recovery researchers and practicing engineers in the petroleum industry.

Principles of Artificial Lift by Niladri Kumar Mitra Pdf

The book ‘Principles of Artificial Lift’ explains the basics and fundamentals as well as the recent technology advancements in the field of artificial lift of producing oil and gas wells. This book is written primarily for Production Engineers and Petroleum Engineering college students of senior level as well as graduate level. Although the purpose of this book is to help as well as teaching artificial lift, it is supposed to be useful as a reference book to the engineers, performing artificial application in Petroleum Industries. We recognize that the topic of ‘Principle of Artificial lift’ is not complete without a basic understanding of the concept regarding well-inflow performance and multiphase flow in pipes. This inflow performance is being elaborated in easiest manner at very beginning of the book. Regarding presentation, this book focuses on presenting and illustrating engineering principles used for designing and analyzing well bore lifting systems, rather than in depth Reservoir Engineering Theories. Since the material of this book is virtually boundless in depth, knowing what to omit was greatest difficulty with its editing. Many of the industry known basic formula are used instead of deriving the same.
