Design of intermittent gas lift installations
SPE Production and Operations Symposium, 2016ABSTRACT Several techniques have been investigated to date to alleviate the detrimental effect of liquid loading in gas wells. However, relatively little is known about the theoretical and operational aspects of plunger-assisted intermittent gas lift for gas well deliquification.

Real Gas Lift Optimization: An Alternative to Timer Based Intermittent Gas Lift
Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference, 2017Abstract A simple electronic control method for automatically determining the "on-time" parameter for intermittent gas lifted wells using existing continuous gas lift valves is presented. Lift gas consumption and production during intermittent operation is compared to previous continuous gas lift results of the same wells in an ...

A Field Test and Analytical Study of Intermittent Gas Lift
Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal, 1974Abstract A series of controlled experiments of intermittent gas life were carried out in an instrumented well in the Conroe field, Montgomery County, Tex. The well was equipped with seven pressure transducers over the length of the tubing string so that progress of the lifted slug of liquid could be followed up the ...

Intermittent Injection of Gas in Gas-lift Installations
Transactions of the AIME, 1929Intermittent injection of gas in gas-lift pumping is a variation of thecommon practice in that the gas is delivered to the well for ashortperiod, called the "on time," followed by a period during which none isadmitted, called the "off time," instead of being admitted continuouslyat a constant rate or by intermittent flowing in which it is ...

Simplified transient-IPR modeling in intermittent gas-lift and plunger-lift systems
Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019Abstract By solving the diffusivity equation on a periodic varying production problem, one can arrive at a transient inflow-performance relationship (IPR) model. This IPR model can then be coupled with a wellbore model to understand intermittent deliverability from wells with an artificial-lift system (ALS), such as periodic gas lift and plunger lift.

Intermittent gas lift in Aghajari oil field, a mathematical study
Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2004The gas lift is a widely used method of artificial lift, for which there are different options. Previous work in this regard to optimize the continuous gas lift (CGL) of Aghajari oil field located in the south of Iran was promising. A new intermittent gas lift (IGL) simulator is developed considering all aspects of this artificial lift method including

Optimal and heuristic scheduling for intermittent gas lift operations
Computers and Industrial Engineering, 1988Abstract The purpose of this paper is to study the scheduling problem in the intermittent gas lift operations, and to present a mixed integer programming (MIP) formulation for solving it. Some heuristic methods are also developed to gain insight into the gas lift scheduling problem of larger problem size.
