The purpose of this paper is to outline and illustrate the calculations required to design a closed rotative gas lift system. Design considerations that are required for continual operation of a closed rotative system without make-up gas after initial charging are discussed. Detailed calculations for a single intermittent well system are offered. These calculations are presented in a step-by-step manner. The effect of expanding the system to include other wells is illustrated.
