Abstract: A system for producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean well including a wellbore extending from a surface into a subterranean formation includes a wellhead disposed at the surface. In addition, the system includes a production tree coupled to the wellhead and a casing coupled to the wellhead and extending into the wellbore. Still further, the system includes a first production tubing string extending into the casing from the wellhead to a first production zone and a second production tubing string extending into the casing from the wellhead to the first production zone. The first production tubing string and the second production tubing string are each configured to provide a fluid flow path for gases from the first production zone. The second production tubing string is radially spaced from the first production tubing string. The first production tubing string has an inner diameter D1 that is larger than an inner diameter D2 of the second production tubing string.

Abstract: A system for producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean well including a wellbore extending from a surface into a subterranean formation, the system including a wellhead disposed at the surface. In addition, the system includes a production tree coupled to the wellhead. Further, the system includes a casing coupled to the wellhead and extending into the wellbore. Still further, the system includes a first plurality of production tubing strings extending into the casing from the wellhead to a first production zone. Each of the first plurality of production tubing strings is configured to provide a fluid flow path for gases from the first production zone. The production tree is configured to selectively and independently control fluid flow through each of the first plurality of production tubing strings.

Abstract: A method for producing gas from a well including a wellbore extending from a surface into a subterranean formation, wherein the well also produces liquid, the method including: (a) producing gas from a production zone in the subterranean formation through an annulus extending within the wellbore at a first velocity that is greater than a critical velocity, and (b) pumping liquid through a liquid tubing string after (a) to reduce a level of the liquid within the wellbore. The method also includes: (c) shutting in the annulus after (a) after the first velocity decreases below the critical velocity, wherein the annulus has a first cross-sectional area and the first production string has a second cross-sectional area that is less than the first cross-sectional area, and (d) producing gas from the production zone through the first production tubing string after (c) at a second velocity being greater than the critical velocity.
