2. Pumpjack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpjack

   Pump size is also determined by the depth and weight of the oil to remove, with deeper extraction requiring more power to move the increased weight of the discharge column (discharge head). A beam-type pumpjack converts the rotary motion of the motor (usually an electric motor ) to the vertical reciprocating motion necessary to drive the ...

3. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

   The rate at which the gas is liberated from a given oil is a function of change in pressure and temperature. The volume of gas that an oil and gas separator will remove from crude oil is dependent on (1) physical and chemical characteristics of the crude, (2) operating pressure, (3) operating temperature, (4) rate of throughput, (5) size and ...

4. Oil skimmer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_skimmer

   Oil spill skimmers can be self-propelled, used from shore, or operated from vessels, with the best choice being dependent on the specifics for the job at hand. [1] Oil skimmers were used to great effect to assist in the remediation of the Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989. Oil skimmers are also used in a large number applications other than oil ...

5. Extraction of petroleum - Wikipedia

   When oil and gas are burned they release carbon dioxide into the air. Fossil fuels, such as oil, are responsible for 89% of the CO2 emissions. [10] Carbon emissions cause climate change which negatively impacts people's safety by raising sea levels and worsening weather. Oil can also cause oil spills, which pollutes the ocean. [10]

6. Production packer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_packer

   Rotation-set packer – Tubing rotation is used to set the packer to mechanically lock it in; a left-hand turn engages and a right-hand turn retrieves it. Hydraulic-set packers use fluid pressure to drive the cone behind the slips. Once set they remain set by the use of either entrapped pressure or a mechanical lock.

7. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completion_(oil_and_gas_wells)

   Pumping flow: the tubing and pump are run to a depth beneath the working fluid. The pump and rod string are installed concentrically within the tubing. A tubing anchor prevents tubing movement while pumping. Tubing flow: a tubing string and a production packer are installed. The packer means that all the flow goes through the tubing.
