Pressure Losses in Well System

∆P4 = (Pwh - Psep)
Gas
Sales line
Pwh Psep Liquid
Stock tank

∆P1 = Pr - Pwfs = Loss in reservoir

∆P3 = Pwf - Pwh ∆P2 = Pwfs - Pwf = Loss across completion
∆P3 = Pwf - Pwh = Loss in tubing
∆P4 = Pwh - Psep = Loss in flowline
∆PT = Pr - Psep = Total pressure loss

Pwf Pwfs Pr Pe

∆P1 = (Pr - Pwfs)

∆P2 = (Pwfs - Pwf)
