Gas Lift Optimization & Application Training

Discover the value in being able to accurately measure the flow of injection gas on gasoline in this training video.

We've heard from our customers that there is a lot of value in measuring injection gas in the gas lift application. When a customer drills an oil well, at first it produces under its own pressure, but inevitably, every oil well will run out of pressure and it has to be enhanced, and that's using a process using artificial lift, where they help these mature oil wells produce.

One way to do artificial lift is something called gas lift, where they inject gas into the well to help push this oil out to increase their recovery. As it is today, operators will tell you that they're operating blind so they're unable to optimize their gas lift. First of all, the gas they are injecting costs money, and then there are compression costs to pump the gas as well. If you're not pumping enough gas in then you're not getting out as much oil as you'd like, but if you pump too much gas in you will actually decrease the oil production. So there is a real value to being able to measure gas flow accurately.
