Gas Lift System Overview

GL SchematicIn a typical gas lift system, compressed gas is injected through gas lift mandrels and valves into the production string. The injected gas lowers the hydrostatic pressure in the production string to reestablish the required pressure differential between the reservoir and wellbore, thus causing the formation fluids to flow to the surface.

Proper installation and compatibility of gas lift equipment, both on the surface and in the wellbore, are essential to any gas lift system. This is precisely the reason you should always specify Weatherford McMurry-Macco® Gas Lift Systems. At Weatherford, an extensive range of compatible equipment and capabilities, experienced technical and field support, and in-depth analysis programs complements every gas lift design. Our comprehensive family of value-added products and system components encompasses a broad range of equipment models, configurations and special features to service and provide the right equipment and system solution for all your gas lift applications.
