GAS LIFT (1)

Gas lift technology increases oil
production rate by injection of
compressed gas into the lower
section of tubing through the
casing–tubing annulus and an
orifice installed in the tubing
string.
Upon entering the tubing, the
compressed gas affects liquid
flow in two ways:
(a) the energy of expansion
propels (pushes) the oil to
the surface and
(b) the gas aerates the oil so that
the effective density of the
fluid is less and, thus, easier to
get to the surface.

Kriteria Operasi Sumur Gas Lift

There are four categories of Wells having a PI of 0.50 or
wells in which a gas lift can less are classified as low
be considered: productivity wells.
Wells having a PI greater
High productivity index
(PI), high bottom-hole than 0.50 are classified as
pressure wells high productivity wells.
High bottom-hole pressures
High PI, low bottom-
hole pressure wells will support a fluid column
equal to 70% of the well
Low PI, high bottom-
depth.
hole pressure wells
Low bottom-hole pressures
Low PI, low bottom-hole
will support a fluid column
pressure wells
less than 40% of the well
depth.

Kickoff of a dead well
(non-natural flowing)
requires much higher
compressor output
pressures than the
ultimate goal of steady
production (either by
continuous gas lift or by
intermittent gas lift
operations).Mobil
compressor trailers are
used for the kickoff
operations.

Accurate determination of the
surface injection pressure pc,s Surface Injection
requires rigorous methods such as Pressure
the Cullender and Smith method
(Katz et al., 1959). Production
However, because of the large Choke
Injection
cross-sectional area of the annular Choke
space, the frictional pressure losses
are often negligible.
Then the average temperature and Wellhead
compressibility factor model Pressure
degenerates to (Economides et al.,
1994)

Up-Stream Choke / Injection Choke

The pressure upstream of the
Surface Injection injection choke depends on flow
Pressure condition at the choke, that is,
sonic or subsonic flow.
Production Whether a sonic flow exists
Choke depends on a downstream-
Injection
Choke toupstream pressure ratio. If this
pressure ratio is less than a critical
pressure ratio, sonic (critical) flow
Wellhead exists.
Pressure If this pressure ratio is greater than
or equal to the critical pressure
ratio, subsonic (subcritical) flow
exists. The critical pressure ratio

Katup operasi (4) akan tetap
Valve 1 : Tertutup terbuka, sebagai jalan masuk gas
injeksi kedalam tubing. Katup ini
Valve 2 : Tertutup diharapkan dapat bekerja dalam
waktu yang lama. Dimasa
Valve 3 : Tertutup
mendatang akan terjadi perubahan
perbandingan gas-cairan dari
formasi, yang cenderung menurun
Valve 4 : Terbuka serta peningkatan produksi air,
maka jumlah gas injeksi dapat
ditingkatkan dan diharapkan katup
injeksi dapat menampung
peningkatan laju injeksi gas
tersebut. Dengan demikian
pemilihan ukuran katup injeksi
perlu direncanakan dengan baik.
