COURSE OVERVIEW
When the gas lift well is flowing, then everybody is happy. But the question then come out, is it at the optimum rate? If the answere is no, then the gas lift well optimization is mandatory required.
This course will provide the very fundamental understanding on how to optimise the gas lift well, in both single, and dual string.
This course will also discuss on nodal analysis, gas lift well designing, redesigning, troubleshooting, and how to select best gas lift valve type, best point of injection depth, and best gas injection rate, in order to get the optimum gas lift well condition. This is a five – day course designed to provide the participant with a complete of understanding in gas lift well optimization. The course will be started from the basic rule of thumb on gas lift well principle, and how it is work. The detail of smart gas lift type, such as IPO, PPO, and also smart orifice valve will be discussed. Also the principle of balance force to understand on how gas lift valve is opening and closing will also be discussed in detail.
The participant will be brought to perform manualy gas lift designing, with the graphical methode. So the participant will be deeply understand on how the gas lift well is work, and how to optimize gas lift well. The unloading procedure, production monitoring, and troubleshooting will also be discussed in the class.
The gas lift insert string, gas lift pack off , velocity string, and gas lift shop job and management, will also be discuss in the course.
