Oil field operators can use several practical equations for calculating flow rates of natural gas through venturi gas-lift valves. For critical flow, this analysis derived such equations from a ...

The flow of all fluids, whether liquid or gas, will have one of three states: laminar, turbulent, and transitional. This article discusses flow principles and pressure-based flow measurement. Laminar ...

Unique behavior of gas condensate wells is characterized by rapid well production loss. Condensate rapidly builds up around the wellbore, reducing gas permeability and gas deliverability, when the ...
