[ 1 ] - Preventing Instability Phenomenon in Gas-lift Optimization

One of the problems that sometimes occur in gas allocation optimization is instability phenomenon. This phenomenon reduces the oil production and damages downhole and surface facilities. Different works have studied the stability and suggested some solutions to override it, but most of them (such as making the well intelligent) are very expensive and thus they are not applicable to many cases. ...

[ 2 ] - Optimizing and Stabilizing the Gas Lift Operation by Controlling the Lift Gas Specific Gravity

One of the factors which affects the gas lift performance is specific gravity of a lift gas (or the Molecular weight), which can influence the gas solubility in oil and has a direct effect on the gas lift performance. There are some previous researches which have included the lift gas specific gravity in their modeling, but in none of them, a comprehensive research about the effect of lift gas ...
