Systems and method for producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean well include a combined product tubular extending into the well, a gas production tubular in fluid communication with the combined product tubular and a fluid production tubular in fluid communication with the combined product tubular. A jet pump is located a junction of the tubulars. An electrical submersible pump is in fluid communication with the fluid production tubular. A cyclone separator is located within the well and has a rotating screw with thread surfaces open to an inner diameter surface of the well. The thread surfaces are angled to direct a liquid stream axially downward and radially outward towards the inner diameter surface of the well, and to direct a gas stream to a lower end of the gas production tubular.

A low-pressure natural gas harvesting system that injects motive fluid into a first well by a compressor, which flows into a motive manifold that utilizes the Coandă effect to introduce a reduced pressure effect. The reduced pressure effect draws natural gas into the system from natural gas reservoirs through one or more inflow ports that are part of inflow manifolds, which may connect to a motive manifold. The natural gas and motive fluid mix after the motive fluid flows over a Coandă effect surface and the mixture is subsequently directed to flow to a production well.

A resource exploration and recovery system includes a first system and a second system extending into a wellbore. The second system includes a completion having a casing defining a wellbore internal diameter. A chemical injection tubing extends from the first system into the completion. The chemical injection tubing includes a terminal end portion. A chemical introduction system is arranged at the first system and is fluidically connected to the chemical injection tubing. The chemical introduction system is operable to deliver a chemical into the chemical injection tubing. A chemical injector assembly is mounted to the terminal end portion. The chemical injection system includes an anchor and a chemical injector valve.

A hydraulically driven underwater pumping system may include a pumping module connected to a subsea base. The subsea base may be connected to: a subsea producing well via a production line that carries the fluid produced by the subsea producing well; and a production unit via a riser and a service line. The hydraulically driven underwater pumping system may receive working fluid from the production unit via the service line. Additionally, a pump, located in the pumping module, may be driven hydraulically by the working fluid and pump the fluid produced by the subsea producing well to the production unit. The hydraulically driven underwater pumping system may mix the working fluid, after being used to drive the pump, with the fluid produced by the subsea producing well that is pumped to the production unit.

The jet pump assembly is positioned within the production tubing, the retractable packer is engaged to bridge a space between the jet pump assembly and a surface of the production tubing, and the jet pump is activated to pump toward the surface location a mixture comprising a power fluid and reservoir fluid. The method further includes disengaging the retractable packer and determining whether there is an underbalance condition. Also disclosed are a related jet pump assembly and bi-directional valve arrangement. The valve arrangement includes upper and lower valves, and retains power fluid in retractable tubing during retraction of a jet pump assembly from production tubing.

A jet pump system and method facilitate the production of a subterranean fluid. The jet pump system comprises a jet pump, a surface pump, a surface pump gauge, and a pump driver coupled to the surface pump to change a drive frequency of the pump driver based on production parameters and pumping parameters of the surface pump (drive frequency (FR) of the surface pump and the power fluid parameters) whereby the surface pump is selectively varied to optimize production. The jet pump method involves deploying the jet pump into the wellbore; pumping power fluid through the jet pump using the surface pump; measuring the pumping parameters; generating the production parameters of the subterranean fluid produced (production rate (QP) of the subterranean fluid); and optimizing the producing by changing the drive frequency (FR) based on the measured power fluid parameters and the generated production parameters.

Disclosed herein are various embodiments of systems for drilling and operating a well which may have dual uses. The well may be drilled and operated as a geothermal well using a hybrid approach where a heat transfer fluid is injected into a hot rock formation but is not removed, and heat is extracted using a closed loop method. The geothermal well is then evaluated for use as a carbon dioxide sequestration well. In other embodiments, the well is drilled as a carbon dioxide sequestration well and then evaluated for its potential for generating geothermal energy using a hybrid approach where supercritical carbon dioxide is injected into a hot rock formation but is not removed, and heat is extracted using a closed loop method. Both horizontal and vertical wells are disclosed, in sedimentary rocks and in basement granite.

A downhole assembly in a wellbore includes a production logging tool disposed in the wellbore and a jet pump device set in a bottom hole assembly uphole from the production logging tool. The jet pump has a central axis, and includes one or more internal components that are radially offset to allow a slickline to pass through the jet pump device. The slickline is configured to actuate the production logging tool. While the jet pump device is operating to produce fluids, the production logging tool is further reciprocated within the wellbore on the slickline to obtain measurements at various locations.

A method for extracting coalbed gas. A wellhead device delivers power fluid into a downhole power fluid pipe in a well shaft, and conveys the fluid to a pump in a pump cylinder connected with the downhole power fluid pipe. The pump sucks in formation fluid via a suction inlet, mixes the fluid with the power fluid to produce a mixed fluid, and conveys the mixed fluid to ground surface. The mixed fluid containing coal dust travels at a flow rate greater than a sedimentation rate of the coal dust, passes though the wellhead device, and flows to the ground surface, thereby preventing a sedimentation of the coal dust. The suction inlet of the pump reaches a lower boundary of a coalbed so as to prevent coal dust from burying the coalbed, and the coalbed gas automatically shoots through an annular space of a well shaft casing.
