English term

gas lift

GBK English to Serbian Tech/Engineering Petroleum Eng/Sci
The process of raising or lifting fluid from a well by injecting gas down the well through tubing or through the tubing-casing annulus. Injected gas aerates the fluid to make it exert less pressure than the formation does; the resulting higher formation pressure forces the fluid out of the wellbore. Gas may be injected continuously or intermittently, depending on the producing characteristics of the well and the arrangement of the gas-lift equipment.
Example sentences:
The use of gas lift is not limited to wells incapable of natural flow; in many applications offshore on the UK Continental Shelf, gas lift is applied to naturally flowing wells to accelerate production. More than 20 manned installations have one or more gas lifted production wells drilled from the installation. (Health and Safety Executive - UK)
The proper measurement of production in marginal fields and new developments to optimize gas lift operations is a very important factor in the oil industry. The enhanced allocation of gas lift wells can result in immediate production payback by increasing each well production versus the injection ratio through real time well data readings. (Egypt Oil & Gas)
As the industry seeks to extend its ability to develop marginal offshore oil reserves profitably, fields requiring gas lift to generate sufficient oil production often pose a sizable challenge. Gas lift in subsea wells, using injected gas from surface, requires extensive infrastructure – the cost of which can render a marginal field uneconomic to develop. (Scandinavian Oil-Gas Online)

gaslift

Definition from Rudarsko-geološki fakultet:
Kada se energija ležišta toliko smanji, da nije više u stanju podići tečnost do površine, potrebno je primeniti metodu dodavanja energije sa površine. Jedna takva metoda jeste upotreba gasa ili vazduha kao sredstvo za podizanje tečnosti sa dna bušotine na površinu. Proces se prema tome naziva gaslift ili aerlift.
Example sentences:
U zaplinjenom vodenom stubu u eksploatacionoj koloni, usled toga dolazi do prirodnog "gas-lift sistema" i do povećane visine stuba vode i povećanog kapaciteta bušotine. Na taj način dobija se viši, odnosno "lažni pijezometrijski nivo". (Pokrajinski sekretarijat za energetiku)
Izložene su teorijske osnove tehnike imobilizacije ćelija, dat prikaz različitih metoda imobilizacije i karakteristike pojedinih nosača, opisani različiti reaktorski sistemi za fermentaciju piva imobilisanim ćelijama kvasca i predložen i analiziran nov sistem za fermentaciju - trofazni gas-lift bioreaktor sa unutrašnjom cirkulacijom. (Zadužbina Andrejević)
У плану је, такође, да се и на друге бушотине примени гас-лифт метода јер се показала веома економичном. (НИС-НАФТАГАС)
