Gas Lift
This course explores how tubing size, valve selection and design, mandrel spacing, casing pressure, choke size and gas volume shape the performance of gas lift wells. Participants practise design, surveillance and optimisation at well and field level using real field data and software. By the end they can diagnose and solve gas lift problems and improve the economics of operation.
