Design, Diagnosis and Optimization of Gas Lift Systems

Design, Diagnosis and Optimization of Gas Lift Systems

About the Course

This course is intended to familiarize production personnel with the use, basic principles, selection of the equipment, types, design, monitoring, etc, of a continuous and intermittent gas lift system. Engineers will obtain the basic skills to the analysis and design of any artificial lift system by using a continuous or intermittent gas flow rate. The description in details of certain technical aspects will allow engineers propose solutions in a rapid and save way in order to either increase or optimize the production of an oil well.

 

Course Objectives

• Become familiar with gas lift methods, concepts of operation and equipment
• Perform gas lift design procedures for new or existing wells
• Recognise the correct data required for well analysis and troubleshooting
• Diagnose and troubleshoot gas lift well performance
• Optimise the gas lift system for production and long term reliability
