..., it was determined that ESP reliability could be reduced by the lack of timely and aggressive onsite interventions. Historical reliability key performance indicators (KPIs) determined that one failure per year was attributable to late or no interventions during critical system operation events; the most-common...

... production. Downhole monitoring of production parameters informs remote surface-controlled adjustment of gas lift valves. This enables automation of production optimization removing the need for well intervention which will be challenging in high deviation well (more than 60-degree deviation). With remotely...

It also describes technology advancements being introduced to expand the elastomeric PCP operating envelope further for high-temperature applications. artificial lift system intervention cavity pump...

... interventions. Critical events are events that have the potential to damage the ESP and for which, without action, the ESP will shut down.These events have the potential to decrease uptime of the ESP and to cause the ESP to fail. Common Problems with Unconventional Reservoirs The common characteristics...

... (OPEX) by optimizing the components in artificial lift systems, like the rod string in PCP, minimizing the frequencies of well interventions. The methodology and design presented in the article can be replicated for other wells that have similar geometries and operating conditions to those...

Abstract Electrical submersible pumps (ESPs), one of the main artificial lift methods employed in the Western Desert of Egypt, can significantly influence the operating costs associated with producing assets. ESP well interventions are typically complex and costlier than other artificial...

... of the common root causes of failure identified in the failure analysis of the ESPs and analysis of the challenging conditions presented in the field, such as fluid characterization, decline of reservoir pressure, workover intervention procedures, and ESP technology currently applied in the field, enabled...

...Current Methods for Optimization If we broadly look at existing gas lift technology the methods for optimization can be considered. This falls into two main categories, firstly optimization without any well intervention and secondly optimization by means of well intervention to change...
