  • DUAL STRING GAS INJECTION SYSTEM WITH FLOW CONTROL
    Publication number: 20230107494
    Abstract: A gas lift system improves the recovery of petroleum fluids from a well to the surface through production tubing. The gas lift system has a packer and a lower injection mandrel connected to the production tubing below the packer. The gas lift system further includes a gas lift module connected to the production tubing above the packer, and an injection line that carries pressurized gas from the surface to both the lower injection mandrel and the gas lift module. An upper injection line valve assembly is configured to provide a source of pressurized gas from the injection line to the gas lift module, while an injection line gas lift valve assembly is configured to provide a source of pressurized gas from the injection line to the lower injection mandrel.

  • Energized thermoplastic sealing element and method of use
    Patent number: 7360590
    Abstract: A packer element for use in forming a fluid pressure barrier within a wellbore. The packer element uses a thermoplastic component to accomplish the seal against the interior diameter of a surrounding tubular and an energizing component that is preferably formed of elastomeric material. The thermoplastic component of the packer element provides a sealing surface and defines an energizing chamber within. An energizing chamber is defined within the thermoplastic component and contains energizing elements that, when axially compressed, will urge the sealing surface of the thermoplastic component into sealing engagement with the surrounding tubular.
