Conventional Onshore Wells
In a conventional gas well, the reservoir pressure must
overcome the wellbore pressure in order for gas to be produced. As the well
ages and the reservoir pressure depletes, it becomes more difficult for the gas
to naturally rise.
Subsurface Compressor Systems™ (SCS) decrease
bottom hole flowing pressure, drawing the reservoir gas into the intake of the
compressor and then pushing it up the production tubing to increase the flowing
well head pressure and density. This increases the production rate by up to
50%, which increases cash flow and net present value. This also increases the
rate of recovery significantly, increasing the production life and providing a
healthier balance sheet.

a new frontier in energy production by maximizing the operational and financial
performance of natural gas wells efficiently and economically.
High Flow Subsurface Compressor System (SCS)
For offshore conventional wells with high flows, SCS is
comprised of multiple compressor modules custom developed to meet specified
flows and pressures.
Medium Flow Subsurface Compressor System (SCS)
For onshore conventional and unconventional wells up to
600 mcf/d, SCS is comprised of standard compressor stages that are selected for
each specified well.
Low Flow Subsurface Compressor System (SCS)
For onshore conventional and unconventional wells up to 300 mcf/d, SCS is comprisedof a standard compressor for a range of well types.
Subsurface compressors provide a much higher economic
return by...
Decreasing the abandonment of bottom hole pressure vs.
the well head pressure, providing a higher total recovery
Increasing the mass flow of the gas vs. volumetric flow,
providing greater operator cash flow
Requiring a fraction of the power pushing the gas upward
vs. pulling it out from the top, providing significant cost savings
Subsurface compressors reduce liquid loading by...
Increasing the mass flow of the gas vs. volumetric flow,
carrying the liquid and moisture with the gas to the surface.
Increasing the temperature of the gas at the bottom of the well vs. decreasing it, preventing phase change (condensation)
