Gas Lift Best Practices

This blog was inspired by a posting by Jim Hall (retired Shell Gaslift SME) on LinkedInin 2020 where he shared his tally book-sized gas lift best practices. We’ve taken his ideas and given them a little bit of an update for modern technology and tools. We hope you find this useful. 

Gas lift is an appropriate and effective lift method for many well types, especially gassy wells. Robust and reliable, gas lift wells continue to produce — even when operating inefficientlyHowever, this also creates a huge opportunity if we can diagnose when a gas lift well is being operated sub-optimally then it gives us an opportunity to recover a missing wedge of production. You do not have to let lower production be the norm using these best practices you can improve the management of your gas lift wells and data to maximize your well production.

Real-time decision making for artificial lift management and optimization

May 29, 2020 9:30:00 AM / by ALP Team posted in digital oilfield, data driven decisions

Optimization is a goal for any number of industries, but in the oilfield, it means a lot of oil—and money—either gained or lost, depending on your well performance. Artificial lift is used in a large number of wells, and utilizing them in unconventional wells comes with complications which can challenge the performance of the lift system and the productivity of the well, not to mention ESP run life. Representing a large amount of financial investment and an even larger number of daily production barrels reliant upon artificial lift performance, artificial lift must be protected to prolong equipment life and ensure maximum production. With a variety of options to manage ESPs and gas lift, the question becomes: How quickly do you want to know what is going on so you can make prompt improvements?
