About this Micro Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)

Artificial Lift is a process of changing reservoir pressure in oil wells in order to increase the flow of oil (or water) to the surface. As production continues, the natural reservoir pressure declines, as such, there is no force to push the oil out. What Artificial Lift does is provide this additional drive by increasing pressure. Artificial Lift is used in mature fields as well as in newer fields to make projects economics work.

Effective utilisation of Artificial Lift requires a detailed analysis whereby almost each well feature makes a difference. Deviation and lateral profiles, pressure and temperature, gas-to-liquid ratio, facilities footprint and many more. Selecting the optimum lift method involves extensive planning, analysis and scenarios. Each method has its own pros and cons and may not be the best method during the later time of the field, although initially, it was the optimum solution. Poor selection may result in high operating costs or deferred production due to wells not being at its optimum production levels. Frequent pump failures due to sand and solids, tubing wear and many more result in unnecessary well workovers.

This Micro VILT will allow participants to have an overall clearer picture of the Artificial Lift options that exist to maximise the production life of their asset.
