Remote control system for drainage gas recovery by plunger lift

The drainage gas recovery technique with plunger lift is highly automated with small slippage loss, and can effectively remove the accumulated fluid in gas wells of low production and intermittent production. It is effectively used in more than 200 wells in Sulige Gasfield. However, it is found in field application that this technique needs manual adjust of system parameters at the wellhead, so the management intensity is great. In line with this problem and based on gas field digitalization technology, the research was conducted on remote control of drainage gas recovery by plunger lift, and the remote control system for drainage gas recovery using plunger lift has been developed which incorporates remote control, intelligent diagnosis and analysis, and effectively improves management level of gas wells production, saving human and material resources.
