Abstract
The first year, the gas lift optimization had made 3500 bopd oil gain,
and the second year had made 4000 bopd oil gains. This year, up-to
the second quarter 2003, BP had made 4500 bopd oil gains. This
total gains is came from 40 % gas lift change out, and 60 % from
Casing Head Pressure Tuning.
Today we are going to talk about the steps of casing head pressure
tuning of the BP-Indonesia gas lift optimization on dual string gas lift

BP Wells General Conditions
Old Oil Field with more than 30 years old
High FGOR with 1000 : 1 or more
Low PI with only about 1 – 3 blpd / psi
Low Production with about 200 - 500 blpd
Low Static Pressure with average ~ 600 psi
Limited Casing Pressure with ~ 600 psi only
Flowing Tubing Pressure is about 180 psi
Shallow well - reservoir depth ~ 3000 ft TVD
Limited data (SBHP and PI is normally
unknown)
Old wells - may have leaking valve or tubing
Some gas lift valves installed 5-10 years ago
Some gas lift header choke stuck open/close
