Gas Well Deliquification, Third Edition, expands upon previous experiences and applies today's more applicable options and technology. Updated to include more information on automation, nodal analysis, and horizontal gas well operations, this new edition provides engineers with key information in one central location. Multiple contributors from today's operators offer their own learned experiences, critical equipment, and rules of thumb for practicality. Covering the entire lifecycle of the well, this book will be an ideal reference for engineers who need to know the right solutions regarding a well's decline curve in their work to continuously optimize assets. Teaches users how to understand the latest methods of deliquifying gas wells, from nodal analysis, to various forms of artificial liftProvides an up-to-date reference on automation techniques for today's operations, including horizontal wellsPresents various perspectives contributed from multiple sources, allowing readers to select the best method for a well's lifecycle INDICE: 1.
