QSO, Inc.
QSO Inc. has developed a product to provide a unique and simple solution to problematic or inefficient plunger lift systems installed in horizontal wells in the USA. QSO’s Patented* Horizontal Check Valve (HCV) has removed the limitations that once burdened the industry in not being able to hold fluid properly in a horizontal well. Our HCV has proven to hold fluid in wells where conventional check valves start failing. Production companies can now access current deeper profile nipple locations without the need to set their bumper springs on expensive tools higher in the tubing just to ensure a seal. By maintaining a fluid column down in the heel of a horizontal well, the plunger lift system’s efficiency is maximized, which yields an increase in both fluid and gas production, reduces the frequency of “dry” plunger arrivals, eliminates swabbing and many other remedial well operations.
