Longtime leaders in artificial lift discuss and share their insights on the rapidly evolving segment’s past, present, and future.

SPE technical papers synopsized in each monthly issue of JPT are available for download for SPE members for 2 months. These February and March papers are available now.

The world of artificial lift has witnessed a remarkable revolution over the past 25 years, with many of the events and technology trends recorded in the Journal of Petroleum Technology.

The long, successful history of various metallurgies in EOR wells has been cited as sufficient to allow the same completions for CCS injection wells. The lack of actual data on the long-term performance of these alloys in EOR wells in combination with the more-stringent requirements for Class VI wells suggests otherwise.

There will always be a need for good artificial lift engineers. So, what should the next generation of its professionals be trying to pursue?

Early adopters of large language models praise the technology’s promise to advance upstream research and software development while also offering cautionary notes.

This paper discusses a new type of mechanical gas separator for electrical submersible pump systems that increases operating flow range and separation efficiency while decreasing erosion problems and improving reliability.

This paper describes how near-real-time tracer data from the onsite tracer analysis enabled the operator of the Nova field to interactively optimize two well cleanups.

This paper describes a case study in which, in the absence of a conventional production log, distributed fiber-optic sensing, in conjunction with shut-in temperature measurements, provided a viable method to derive inflow zonal distribution.
