Continuous Gas Lift Tubular Flow

Gas is injected continuously into the annulus. The gas travels down the annulus, regulated through a gas lift valve and into the fluid column inside the tubing in the well. The injected gas reduces the density of the fluid to a point where the reservoir pressure can push it to the production facility. This application is suited for most any well requiring artificial lift where a supply of pressurized gas is available.

Continuous Gas Lift Annular Flow

Gas is injected into the production tubing, which travels down the tubing, regulated through a gas lift valve and into the fluid column in the annulus. The injected gas reduces the density of the fluid to a point so that maximum flow is realized from the reservoir. This application is best suited for wells that have a reservoir pressure that will support fluid to surface, have a high PI, low GLR and are tubing size limited. The larger flow area will allow higher fluid rates to be produced.

Intermittent Gas Lift

Intermittently, high volumes of gas are injected into the annulus of the well. The injected gas travels down the annulus, regulated through a large ported or pilot gas lift valve under the accumulated fluid column, which is quickly displaced to the surface. The goal is to produce the well at the actual rate that the fluid enters the wellbore from the reservoir. This application is best for wells that produce low volumes due to low BHP or low PI.

Gas Lift Chamber Lift System

Intermittently, high volumes of gas are injected into the annulus of the well. The injected gas travels down the annulus, regulated through a gas lift valve and displaces the fluid in an accumulation chamber and the tubing. The accumulation chamber allows for the capture of more fluid than tubing alone and increases the volume of liquid produced each cycle. This application is best for wells with low BHP and high PI.

Dual Well Gas Lift

Gas is injected continuously into a common annulus. The gas travels down the annulus, regulated through gas lift valves and into the fluid column inside dual tubing strings in the well. This application is for wells that have more than one reservoir, which has to be produced independently of each other.

Gas Lift Side String Injection

Gas is injected down the side string, which runs parallel to the production tubing and communicated with the gas lift mandrel in installation. The injected gas travels down the side string, regulated through a gas lift valve and into the fluid column inside the tubing. The purpose of this application is to isolate the annulus from gas injection pressure. This application is best for wells with damaged casing and wells where gas has to be vented up the annular area.

Chemical Injection

Treatment chemicals are pumped downhole into the produced fluids of a well to control harmful deposits. A chemical injection line may be run from the chemical injection mandrel to the surface to act as a conduit for the treatment fluids. A high-pressure pump installed at the surface is used to pump the treatment fluid downhole. This application is best for preventing corrosive degradation.

Waterflood Injection

Water is pumped into the tubing. The water travels down the tubing and is regulated into each zone being flooded. With waterflood regulators, multiple zones can be flooded with a single wellbore. Waterflood is used to maintain or increase reservoir pressure in zones that oil production has or is expected to decline.

RIPO-1.0 | RIPO-1.5 | RIPO-1.0BL
The RIPO is a wireline retrievable injection pressure operated gas lift valve that comes in 1" or 1-1/2" O.D. This valve is primarily controlled by injection gas pressure. The valve is used to control gas pressure and its flow from the casing annulus into the tubing during gas lift operations. The valve is installed in side pocket mandrels. The valve is designed with a sealed chamber, including a bellows assembly that contains a nitrogen charge over dampening fluid. The bellows serves as an interface between the dome pressure and injection gas pressure. The dome charge provides the closing force of the valve. When injection gas pressure exceeds the closing force, the bellows compress, lifting the valve stem off the seat, allowing gas to be injected through the valve and into the tubing. The RIPO valve consists of a tail plug, upper packing, bellows assembly with valve core and bellows, bellows housing, stem with tungsten carbide ball, seat housing, floating seat, lower packing, lower packing retainer, and nose with reverse flow check dart with optional choke sizes. The valve is constructed of premium materials for corrosion resistance in wells with high concentrations of H2S and/or CO2 . Packing and elastomeric materials for the valve are available for standard and special service.

The valve is installed in side pocket mandrels. The valve is designed with a square edged orifice which, when properly sized, allows volume control when the casing and tubing pressures are known. An integral reverse flow check prevents gas and or fluid from flowing from the tubing back into the casing annulus. The ROV valve consists of a flow barrel, seat housing and floating square edged orifice, lower packing retainer, and check nose with a reverse flow check drop. The valve is constructed of premium materials for corrosion resistance in wells with high concentrations of H2S or CO2 . Packing and elastomeric materials for the valve are available for standard service or special service to suit individual well conditions. The ROV orifice valve is available with square edged orifice sizes of 1/8" through 1/2" Lufkins HR series orifice has a maximum port size of 7/16" for the ROV-1.0HR and 3/4" for the ROV-1.5HR. In operation, gas and/or fluids that are injected into the casing annulus enter through the ports in the side pocket mandrel. This gas and/or fluid then enter through the ports in the valve that is located in the flow barrel between the two sets of packing. The gas and/or fluid then flows through the seat housing and square edged orifice, past the reverse flow check drop, through the check nose and into the tubing.

Val ve s
Conventional Valves
CIPO-1.0 | CIPO-1.5
The CIPO is a conventional (tubing retrievable) injection pressure operated gas lift valve that comes in 1" or 1-1/2" O.D. This valve is primarily controlled by injection gas pressure. The valve is used to control gas pressure and its flow from the casing annulus into the tubing during gas lift operations. The valve is installed on a conventional mandrel. The valve is designed with a sealed chamber, including a bellows assembly that contains a nitrogen charge over damping fluid. The bellows serves as an interface between the dome pressure and injection gas pressure. The dome charge provides the closing force of the valve. When injection gas pressure exceeds the closing force, the bellows compress, lifting the valve stem off of the seat, allowing gas to be injected through the valve and into the tubing. The CIPO valve consists of a tail plug, bellows assembly with valve core and bellows, bellows housing, stem with tungsten carbide ball, seat housing, floating seat and nose with reverse flow check dart with optional choke sizes. The valve is constructed of premium materials for corrosion resistance in wells with high concentrations of H2S and/or CO2 . Elastomeric material for the valve is available for standard and special service.

TUBING RETRIEVABLE
Check Valves
CVIPO-1.0 | CVIPO-1.5 | CVIPO-1.0RF
The CVIPO is a conventional (tubing retrievable) check valve that comes in 1" or 1-1/2" O.D. The check valve is installed externally on conventional mandrels and chemical injection subs. Reverse flow checks prevent gas and fluid flow from the tubing back into the casing annulus. In operation, the reverse flow check valve utilizes a dual seating system. A soft seal ring is contacted first by the check dart and as differential pressure increases a metal-to-metal contact acts as a secondary seal. The CVIPO check valve consists of a check housing, seals, check dart and spring. The check is constructed of premium material for corrosion resistance in wells with high concentrations of H2S and/or CO2 . Elastomeric materials for the valve are available for standard service and special service to suit individual well conditions.

Features:
Stainless steel or premium materials 5,000 psi test pressure Nickel alloy X-750 spring Compatible with other industry standard conventional (tubing retrievable) mandrels CVIPO check is required when utilizing flow with a screen orifice CVIPO-1.0RF is for use in concentric mandrels and reverse flow applications

Wireline Retrievable Lateral Discharge Regulators & Mandrels
RWF-1.0

RWF-1.0
The RWF-1.0 is a wireline retrievable waterflood regulator. This regulator is designed to operate in industry standard side pocket gas lift mandrels with a 1" I.D. pocket. The regulator consists of a nose, orifice cap, spring, seat, cone and flow barrel. Water enters the regulator through the nose, passes through the orifice cap and seat past the cone and exits laterally through the flow barrel. The regulator is a normally open device that requires a minimum of 200 psi differential pressure to become operational. The differential pressure is required to overcome a predetermined spring resistance that is holding the seat away from the cone. As the spring resistance is overcome the seat moves toward the cone holding the rate allowed to pass relatively constant regardless of the injection pressure. When using an orifice valve to do the same type of operation, the injection rates will vary greatly with the changing differential pressure across the orifice. The rates will remain relatively steady through a regulator.
