  • Patent number: 7278488
    Abstract: A method of foam emulsion well cleanout for gas well. An emulsifier apparatus is provided having a compressed air inlet, a foaming solution inlet and a foam outlet. The compressed air inlet is connected to a source of compressed air capable of supplying compressed air to the emulsifier apparatus within a range of selected pressures. The foaming solution is connected to a source of foaming solution capable of supplying foaming solution to the emulsifier apparatus within a range of selected pressures. The foam outlet is connected to a discharge conduit supplying foam to a gas well. The production of foam is initiated out of the foam outlet of the emulsifier apparatus by supplying compressed air to the emulsifier apparatus through the compressed air inlet at a rate of approximately 300 to 400 c.f.m. and at pressures within a range of 175 p.s.i and 375 p.s.i.
