Production & Artificial Lift
A well’s economics are decided over years, not days. We model what the well can deliver, choose the lift system that fits its whole decline — not just its first month — and tune it as conditions change.
When operators call us
The problems this solves.
- Wells declining faster than the type curve with no clear reason why
- Lift chosen for initial rates that no longer fits the well
- High failure frequency driving workover spend
- A field that needs a surveillance routine, not just a response to downtime
Scope
What the work covers.
Nodal analysis
Inflow and outflow modeling to find where production is being lost — reservoir, tubing, or surface.
Artificial-lift selection
Rod, ESP, gas lift, and plunger options compared across the full decline profile and operating cost.
Lift optimization
Design reviews, pump-off and set-point tuning, and change-out timing to extend run life.
Production surveillance
Exception-based monitoring routines that flag underperforming wells before they become workovers.
Deliverables
What you get.
Every engagement ends in documents your team can run with, review, and file — not a slide deck. Scope is agreed in writing before work starts.
Typical deliverables
- Nodal model for each well studied
- Lift selection study with lifecycle cost comparison
- Optimization recommendations, ranked by value
- Surveillance routine and exception thresholds

Equipment to match
Engineered, then supplied.
The hardware this work usually calls for — specified by the same engineers who designed the program, and sourced through our supply network.
