Humberto Leniek, Coil Tubing Americas
The need to produce large volumes of fluids from secondary recovery wells, and to produce normal levels of fluid from deeper wells, made possible an innovative artificial lift option using a Dual Displacement Pump.(Fig. 1) Reciprocated with a standard beam pumping unit using coiled tubing, this production system (patent pending) consist in reciprocating a plunger of a down hole pump, were both motions of the pumping unit are utilized to convey fluid to surface. While in the down stroke production reaches surface through the annular space between CT and production tubing, in the up stroke fluids reach the surface through the annular space between CT and production tubing, The pump design incorporates two independent sets of traveling valves and two sets of standing valves with only one Plunger/barrel configuration.
