Gas lift compressor system and method for supplying compressed gas to multiple wells
11686302 · 2023-06-27 · ·

A high pressure gas lift compressor system and method of using the system for supplying compressed gas to multiple wells are provided. The system includes a compressor having multiple compressor cylinders. Each cylinder has its own gas inlet line and dedicated gas outlet line that supplies compressed gas from that cylinder directly to a wellbore to provide artificial gas lift. Each cylinder also has its own control valve upstream of the cylinder to control the suction pressure to the cylinder. A desired gas flow rate to each well may be input, and the control valve is adjusted accordingly to achieve the flow rate. By inputting a flow rate for each separate cylinder, the flow rate to each well may be independently controlled.

COMPRESSOR FOR REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING, AND REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING DEVICE

The present invention provides a compressor for refrigeration and air conditioning and a refrigeration and air conditioning device capable of achieving both favorable environmental performance and favorable refrigeration cycle efficiency. In the compressor for refrigeration and air conditioning, a refrigerator oil containing a polyol ester and a refrigerant containing difluoromethane are enclosed. The polyol ester has two or more repetitions of poly[2,2-di(alkanoyloxymethyl)oxytrimethylene] as a structural unit. Further, the polyol ester is composed of only one or both of a cyclic polyol ester, which is obtained by cyclically polymerizing a molecular chain having the structural unit, and a crosslinked polyol ester, which is obtained by crosslinking molecular chains having the structural unit with each other through a crosslinkable structural unit polymerized with the structural unit.

A system includes a reciprocating expander including: a piston disposed in a chamber; a crankshaft; a connector rod coupled between the piston and the crankshaft and configured to transfer torque to the crankshaft in response to movement of the piston in the chamber; and a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet on one side of the piston. The system also includes a first flowpath coupled between a wellbore and the reciprocating expander and configured to communicate gas from the wellbore into the fluid inlet of the reciprocating expander at a first pressure. The system further includes a second flowpath coupled between the reciprocating expander and downstream equipment and configured to communicate the gas from the reciprocating expander toward the downstream equipment at a second pressure, the second pressure being lower than the first pressure.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MULTI-LEVEL VACUUM GENERATION AND STORAGE
20170356431 · 2017-12-14 ·

A system and method for vacuum generation is disclosed. A saturated steam of higher than ambient pressure is inserted into a condensation cylinder with two chambers, separated by a movable piston, and wall-imbedded heat exchangers. The steam moves the piston to fill one chamber while expel gaseous content and condensate out of the other chamber. The steam is then condensed to a rough vacuum state by cooling. By repeated operations of inserting and condensing steam in each chamber alternatively, a sustained vacuum generation is achieved. A system and method for constructing a multi-level vacuum storage is also disclosed, with a high vacuum chamber placed inside a rough vacuum chamber to reduce the leakage as well as mechanical stresses. Furthermore the vacuum generation system and method is extended for creating a prime mover or actuator to drive vacuum pumps, maximizing the thermal energy usage for increased vacuuming capacity.

Internally cooled inline drive compressor
