Product information

Overview

A plunger lift is often the first artificial lift method used in a well's life cycle. Plunger lift systems are designed to overcome the challenges associated with lower volume, particularly in marginal and aging wells. Our plunger lift product line is designed to offer many benefits, including:

  • Specifically designed to control fluid levels in gas wells
  • Control the buildup of wax, hydrate and paraffin
  • Wells with high gas-to-oil ratios

Our plunger lift equipment has the following capabilities:

  • Sweet or sour service equipment options
  • Lubricators capable of up to 10,000 psi working pressure rating
  • Controllers that optimize and monitor all system functions
  • Plungers designed for variable downhole conditions and tubing sizes
  • Bottom hole bumper springs to absorb plunger impact

These systems are environmentally friendly and well-suited to the following applications:

  • Dewatering liquid loading gas wells
  • Wells with high gas-oil ratios
  • Wells with marginal production
  • Wells currently being soaped
  • Paraffin and hydrate control

We also offer a complete range of electronic controllers to optimize plunger cycles and increase production efficiency.
