Abstract
Increase in word energy demand has
encouraged the producers to search for methods to improve
production and economics for oil wells.
Artificial lifts improves the production and economics by
increasing flow rates and optimizing the production cycle of
oil and gas reservoirs. It is one of the most important
methods to boost oil production from oil well. Artificial lift
solutions are designed to overcome bottom-hole pressure to
enable a well to produce at the desired rate. This typically
involves either using a pump or injecting gas to reduce its
hydrostatic pressure to provide additional lift pressure
downhole.
