RESERVOIR CAPABILITY: Reservoir capability is best illustration of IPR of the well, sometimes

also including gas coming from the reservoir in the well.

PIPING CAPABILITY: It is illustrated by tubing intake curves. Such curves can be drawn for
different methods assuming different flow rates and then finding out bottom hole flowing pressure.
The two components are combined and then the flow rates possible by different methods are
found.
Artificial lift methods are as follows-
1. Sucker rod pumping.
a. Walking beam type.
b. Hydraulic piston type.
c. Air or gas piston type.
d. Winch or cable type.
