GAS COMPRESSOR FOR PRODUCTION OPTIMIZATION in Drayton Valley, Alberta, Canada

The main function of the Beam Mounted gas Compressor (B.M.G.C.) single acting or double acting is to draw gas from the casing side of the well and to discharge the gas into the flow line. By doing so, the B.M.G.C. actually reduces the backpressure on the formation face, thus allowing additional oil to enter the well bore.
IMPROVING OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION WITH THE BEAM MOUNTED GAS COMPRESSOR
BEAM MOUNTED COMPRESSOR THEORY:
If a well is not pumped off, a column of fluid will exist above the formation. The fluid exerts backpressure on the formation in the form of hydrostatic head and in addition to the hydrostatic head of the fluid level, the surface casing pressure exerts backpressure on the formation. Therefore, it could be inferred that an increase in the back pressure on the formation will cause a decline in the draw-down and correspondingly reduce the productivity of the well. With the decrease of casing pressure, the ability for a well to increase production is greater.
