  2. Pressure tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_tank

    A simple control system for a water well. Referring to the figure on the left, a submersible water pump is installed in a well. The pressure switch turns the water pump on when it senses a pressure that is less than P lo and turns it off when it senses a pressure greater than P hi. While the pump is on, the pressure tank fills up.

    The valves required for oil and gas separators are oil discharge control valve, water-discharge control valve (three-phase operation), drain valves, block valves, pressure relief valves, and emergency shutdown valves (ESD). ESD valves typically stay in open position for months or years awaiting a command signal to operate.

  4. Well control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_control

    the drilling and operating companies well control policies. For workover or completion operations, other methods are often used. Bullheading is a common way to kill a well during workovers and completions operations but is not often used while drilling. Reverse circulation is another kill method used for workovers that are not used for drilling ...

  5. Pumpjack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpjack

    The polished rod has a close fit to the stuffing box, letting it move in and out of the tubing without fluid escaping. (The tubing is a pipe that runs to the bottom of the well through which the liquid is produced.) The bridle follows the curve of the horse head as it lowers and raises to create a vertical or nearly-vertical stroke.

  6. Well kill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_kill

    This is the most common method of a contingency well kill. If there is a sudden need to kill a well quickly, without the time for rigging up for circulation, the more blunt instrument of bullheading may be used. This involves simply pumping the kill fluid directly down the well bore, forcing the well bore fluids back into the reservoir. This ...

  7. Snubbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snubbing

    The first snubbing unit was primarily designed to work in well control situations to "snub" drill pipe and or casing into, or out of, a well bore when conventional well killing methods could not be used. Unlike conventional drilling and completions operations, snubbing can be performed with the well still under pressure (not killed). When done ...
