gas well optimization

by Rob Danberger on Jun 10, 2009

Outlaw Automation Inc Has an interesting set of tools designed to run in the Fisher ROC products to enhance production using plunger and/or timers. The program offers a number of different control modes designed to achieve maintaining, or increasing in production. Depending on the mode selected, control functions utilize timers, gas flow rate, well pressure, plunger arrival data or a combination thereof. Using a Fisher FloBoss (ROC103) a simple user program is uploaded and enabled. A plunger arrival sensor is connected to a DI point on the RTU.
The Time On/Off and Plunger Control - Fixed Timers modes are the only selections that will result in definite well on and off times. All other modes will result in a variable on time, a variable off time, or both variables on and off times. Times will vary based on the characteristics of the well and the entered setpoints.
In a sample application of Gas Flow Rate vs. Time for a typical gas well that has been shut in for a...Read More >>

Optimization With or Without PLUNGER INSTALLED

by Wolf

Optimization With or Without PLUNGER INSTALLED. A plunger-lift optimization system is a low-cost, efficient method ofincreasing and optimizing production in oil and gas wells, which have developed marginal flow characteristics. Without a Plunger on the well the Fisher ROC Optimization program may still be used to optimize production. See mode 2 below (Critical Flow vs. Time Off) . The basics of the plunger is to open and close the well shutoff valve atthe optimum times, to bring up the plunger and the contaminants andmaximize natural gas production. A well without a...
