Application of Gas lifting in Zhalaroer Oilfield of Kazakhstan

Zhalaroer Oilfield of Kazakhstan was put into production in 1983, where gas lifting is the main artificial lifting method for development. Gas lifting was started in 2001, in order to improve the overall exploitation benefit of the oilfield with low porosity and permeability, a series of technologies such as deepening gas injection, gas-lifting by wet gas, jet gas lifting has been studied and applied, improving the development effectiveness significantly. Meanwhile, the study also provide references for the development of similar oilfields in the world.
