Learn Jet Pumps

Reference guide summarizing key downhole configurations used with jet pump artificial lift systems. Fixed Jet Pump Configuration A fixed jet pump is set inside the well using a packer and seating assembly. The nozzle, throat and diffuser remain in place…

Q1. How does a jet pump work? A jet pump uses a high-pressure power fluid that is pumped downhole and accelerated through a nozzle. This creates suction that draws in produced fluid, mixes with it in the throat, and then…

Hydraulic jet pump artificial lift systems are unique in that the energy transfer happens through fluid dynamics rather than through moving mechanical components downhole. To understand their effectiveness, it is necessary to examine the anatomy of the pump and its…

Principles of Operation and System Advantages Artificial lift technologies are central to extending the productive life of oil and gas wells. Among these, hydraulic jet pumps offer a unique combination of simplicity, flexibility, and resilience in harsh well conditions. Unlike…
