GASMASTER™

New Product
* 2005 *
Gas Locking - Standard Stage
ƒ Gas has completely Rotation

filled the area of the

eye, (aided by
centrifugal force), and
the impeller may no
longer be able to build
enough pressure to
displace the fluid.
ƒ The pump is
effectively locked.
ESP Gas Handling Limitations
ƒ Turpin
100% correlation (1986) for acceptable performance of

ESPs in gassy applications.

HIGHER PRODUCTION RATE INCREASED WELL PRODUCTION
BETTER SEPARATION EFFICIENCY INCREASED WELL PRODUCTION
BETTER WEAR RESISTANCE LONGER RUN LIFE
New Gas Separator Design
Gas Separator testing in late 2003 showed:
ƒ Separator rates choked by inducer (old design)
ƒ At high volumes, inducer does not provide enough pressure
increment to push fluid through the chamber

A different approach to the Gas Separator

pressure charging was required:
Theoretical research and extensive testing gave
way to…
A new High Angle Vane Auger
Warning!
ƒ Salesmen will be seriously tempted to ask
customers…

“Does your separator…
