Method for pumping foamed fluids into a well bore or subterranean formation

A method for pumping a liquid-gas mixture into a subsurface well includes introducing gas into a liquid at a first pressure to generate a mixture. The mixture is pumped through a first positive displacement pump to a second pressure greater than the first pressure. The mixture at the second pressure is pumped through at least a second positive displacement pump to a third pressure greater than the second pressure. The mixture is moved into the subsurface well at at least the third pressure.

AXIAL PISTON PUMP MOUNTING FLANGE CONFIGURATION

A hydraulic pump or motor includes a mounting flange that is disposed at the first end of the housing. The mounting flange defines a pair of fastener receiving apertures that are disposed along the X-axis on either side of the shaft. The pair of fastener receiving apertures each define a radius center that are spaced away from each other a X dimension, and a pilot projection extends longitudinally away from the mounting flange, defining a pilot projection diameter. A ratio of the X dimension to the pilot projection diameter ranges from 1.07 to 1.11.

A method of manufacturing a suction pipe for a multi-compressor device having a plurality of inlets, the suction pipe comprising a primary portion and a plurality of secondary portions arranged to receive fluid from the primary portion for supplying fluid in parallel to the inlets of a multi-compressor device. The method includes designing the suction pipe by: selecting a first dimension for the primary portion of the suction pipe, calculating a first fluid velocity for fluid in the primary portion based on the first dimension, and comparing the first fluid velocity to a first predetermined threshold; selecting a second dimension for the secondary portions, calculating a second fluid velocity for fluid in the secondary portions based on the second dimension, and comparing the second fluid velocity to a second predetermined threshold; and calculating a ratio of the first fluid velocity to the second fluid velocity.

Compressor system and method of inserting and pulling out bundle of compressor

A compressor system includes: a first compressor including a first casing having a cylindrical shape, and a first bundle capable of being inserted into and pulled out from the first casing in an axial direction of the first casing; and a second compressor including a second casing having a cylindrical shape, and a second bundle capable of being inserted into and pulled out from the second casing in an axial direction of the second casing. The first and second compressors are arranged to face each other to cause pullout directions of the respective bundles to be opposite to each other. A maintenance space shareable for insertion and pullout operations of the first bundle and insertion and pullout operations of the second bundle is interposed between the first bundle and the second bundle, and is available for the bundle under the insertion and pullout operations.

A pump includes a casing defining an interior volume. The pump casing includes at least one balancing plate that can be part of a wall of the pump casing with each balancing plate including a protruding portion having two recesses. Each recess is configured to accept one end of a fluid driver. The balancing plate aligns the fluid displacement members with respect to each other such that the fluid displacement members can pump the fluid when rotated. The balancing plates can include cooling grooves connecting the respective recesses. The cooling grooves ensure that some of the liquid being transferred in the internal volume is directed to bearings disposed in the recesses as the fluid drivers rotate.
