Operation of jet pumps for the oil & gas drilling industry

Authors: A.P. Melnikov, A.V. Panevnik (Ivano-Frankivsk National Technical University of Oil and Gas, Ukraine, Ivano-Frankivsk)

Key words: jet pump, ejector, head ratio, flow ratio.

The article considers the main purpose of jet pumps in the construction of oil and gas wells, namely, the increase in ROP. It is noted major shortcoming in the jet pump, its low efficiency, as well as the complexity of its increase in oil and gas companies. As a result of studies the authors propose methods to control and regulate the parameters of jet pumps for efficient operation in oil and gas companies.
