A New Artificial Lifting Technology for Gas Wells-Downhole Gas Compression

Abstract:

Downhole Gas Compression (DGC) is an entirely new powered artificial lift technology specifically for natural gas wells. The technology offers the opportunity to increase production by 30-50%, significantly improve reserves and delay the onset of liquid loading. Key application of DGC is for use in deeper partially depleted reservoir wells encountering liquid loading. The research progress of DGC is introduced in this paper and the results of theoretical and experimental study of DGC are investigated. Moreover, the adaptability and application prospect of this new technology is analyzed. There are many gas fields in China faced with problems about effective drainage and recovery enhancement, such as the mature gas fields in Sichuan and Ordos Basin. DGC will have a good application prospect in China and further study of the DGC technology is recommended.
