“In October, 1859, Colonel Edwin Drake rigged up a pump to produce an oil and water mixture a distance of ten feet to the surface. It was the world’s first commercial oil well and the first use of artificial lift to commercially produce oil.” Today, 140 years later, pumps are employed in more than 80% of all artificial-lift wells.
When oil or gas is being produced the reservoir pressure reduces. At a certain point in time it can happen that the pressure in the reservoir becomes too low for production and artificial lift can be required. Artificial-lift methods fall into two groups, those that use pumps and those that use gas.
Features and add-on options By choosing from various add-on options, such as coalbed methane, gas field operations, reservoir coupling, EOR, multisegmented wells, and surface networks, ECLIPSE simulators can be tailored to your needs and greatly enhance the scope of your simulation studies.
