Artificial Lift Systems & Technologies training course develops practical capability to select, operate, monitor and optimise lift systems across changing well conditions. Participants learn to evaluate when artificial lift is required and compare available technologies using well, reservoir, fluid, production, and operating information. This supports more systematic and technically defensible lift decisions.
The training course examines Gas Lift, ESP, Rod Lift, PCP, Plunger Lift, Hydraulic Pumping, and Jet Pump systems within one comparative framework. Participants evaluate operating envelopes, equipment configurations, performance limitations, surveillance indicators, reliability, and lifecycle considerations. They also learn when changing production conditions may justify optimisation or transition to another lift method.
Key focus areas of this Artificial Lift Systems & Technologies training course include:
At the end of this Artificial Lift Systems & Technologies training course, participants will be able to:

This training course combines expert-led instruction, technical discussions, practical exercises, applied well scenarios, comparative evaluations, and real-world production examples. Participants assess well conditions, compare artificial lift alternatives, interpret surveillance information, diagnose operating issues, and develop technically appropriate lift recommendations.
We offer a variety of tailored training options, customized to meet your organisation's needs. Delivered anytime, anywhere, we make it easy to bring expert training directly to your team.
The training course develops the practical engineering capability required to evaluate, select, operate, and optimise artificial lift systems. Participants learn to compare alternative technologies and make lift decisions based on well performance, fluid characteristics, operating constraints, reliability, and lifecycle considerations.
Artificial lift becomes necessary when reservoir energy and natural-flow conditions can no longer deliver the required production rate efficiently or economically. The training course helps participants recognise these conditions and evaluate whether lift intervention can improve well performance.
The training course examines Gas Lift, Plunger Lift, Electric Submersible Pumps, Rod Lift, Progressive Cavity Pumps, Hydraulic Pumping, and Jet Pump systems. Participants compare their equipment requirements, operating principles, application ranges, benefits, and limitations.
Selection depends on factors such as well depth, production rate, reservoir deliverability, gas content, viscosity, solids, temperature, water cut, deviation, available surface facilities, reliability requirements, and lifecycle economics. The training course shows how these factors can be evaluated together rather than independently.
Participants examine surveillance indicators, common operating problems, deterioration in production performance, and early signs of lift-system failure. They also learn to distinguish problems originating in the well from those caused by the installed artificial lift system.
The Artificial Lift Systems & Technologies training course examines real-time monitoring, automated alerts, exception-based surveillance, and AI-assisted performance analysis. These capabilities are considered as decision-support tools for recognising changing conditions and identifying optimisation opportunities.
A change may be justified when reservoir pressure, production rate, gas fraction, water cut, fluid characteristics, well integrity, or operating conditions move beyond the effective range of the installed system. Participants learn to reassess lift strategy throughout the producing life of the well.
