Overview
Gas lift mandrels are essential components of gas lift systems, which inject gas into the production tubing to aerate the fluid and facilitate its efficient flow to the surface. Mandrels provide a secure mounting point for gas lift valves and other downhole components.
Two Primary Types of Mandrels:
- Conventional: These mandrels require gas lift valves to be installed on the surface and run with the tubing string.
- Side Pocket: These mandrels allow gas lift valves and other downhole components to be installed or replaced using wireline.
