Gas Lift: Principles, Types, and

Applications
Presented by: Jaden Abraham
1. Introduction
• • What is it?
• Gas lift is an artificial lift method used to
increase oil flow from wells when reservoir
pressure is insufficient.
• • Why is it important?
• It's a simple, cost-effective, and efficient
solution for extending the life of aging wells.
2. Working Principle
• • Step 1: High-pressure gas is injected into the
production tubing.
• • Step 2: The gas mixes with the oil, reducing
fluid density.
• • Step 3: Reduced density allows reservoir
pressure to push fluid to the surface.
• Example: Like a balloon filled with air that
floats better in water.
3. Types of Gas Lift
• • Continuous:
• Gas is injected constantly. Used for wells with
steady production.
• Advantage: Easier to manage.
• • Intermittent:
• Gas is injected in cycles, for low or irregular
production.
• Advantage: More economical for low-output
wells.
4. Advantages and Challenges
• • Advantages:
• Low cost, versatile, durable in harsh
conditions.
• • Challenges:
• Requires reliable gas source, corrosion,
freezing in cold environments.
5. Applications
• • Used in mature wells with low reservoir
pressure to boost production.
• • Less expensive and easier to maintain than
Electric Submersible Pumps.
• Example: Gas lift reduced operating costs by
15% in Texas fields.
6. Conclusion
• • Summary: Gas lift is a simple, efficient
method for low-pressure wells.
• • Open questions: How can innovations
improve gas lift efficiency?
