Gas Separators

TRC is an authorized distributor of the Echometer Downhole Improved Collar-Size Gas Separator. The separator is installed when a well is operated at low efficiency due to poor natural gas separation or due to an inefficient downhole gas separator. The Downhole Improved Collar-Size Gas Separator is used when the downhole pump is placed in or above the producing zones.

Several common improper oil field production practices used to combat poor gas separation that result in high operating cost are:

• Tapping bottom with the pump,
• Running the pumping unit at excessive speed,
• Operating the pumping unit for excessive periods of time, or increasing the tubing pressure or increasing the casing pressure.
• The proper procedure for correcting inefficient downhole gas separation is identifying the problem and correctly installing the Downhole Improved Collar-Size Gas Separator in the well.
