本文讨论了多相泵在西德克萨斯油田的应用。介绍了原先的生产系统并解释了制约油井产量的若干因素。对提高油井产量的若干有争议的观点进行了比较，其中包括集气系统、分离和单相泵输或压缩系统，以及多相泵输系统。本文简要介绍了多相泵项目的情况，包括泵安装前后的性能测试、生产系统对泵的反应以及该项目的长远目标。 This article discusses the use of multiphase pumps in the West Texas oil field. The original production system was introduced and some of the factors that constrained well production were explained. Several controversial points have been made to improve well production, including gas gathering systems, separation and single-phase pumping or compression systems, and multiphase pumping systems. This article gives a brief overview of multiphase pump projects, including performance tests before and after the pump is installed, the reaction of the production system to the pump, and the long-term goal of the project.
