New Life for Old Wells: Finding Production and Economic Wins in Gas Wells with Tubing Perforation and Plunger Lift

As many as 10% of Laramie Energy, LLC’s wells were non‐producing or under‐producing due to deep‐set tubing or mechanical restrictions in tubing or casing. A program of evaluating existing completions followed by tubing perforation and reestablishment of plunger lift was undertaken to restore economically viability to these wells.

Utilizing Algorithms to Determine Production Increases on Wells Operating with a Fluid Level Above the Pump

One of the benefits of utilizing a Sucker Rod Pump for artificially lifted oil and gas wells is that they can achieve total drawdown of the casing fluid above the downhole pump. This allows for the pump to maximize the production of the well by minimizing the back pressure on the reservoir caused by the […]
