Gas Separation for Efficiency
The Evolution PC Pump Gas Separator is a continuous flow
downhole gas separator for use with progressing cavity pumps.

The PC Pump Gas Separator uses centrifugal forces to separate
the gas from produced liquids, before they enter the pump.

Using the tool allows gas-free production fluids to be carried
into the pump station while the separated gases are forced to
migrate up the annulus.

Eliminating the associated gases before entering the pump has
the following advantages:

Pump efficiency and pump rate will be increased.
Elimination of CO2 and H2S gasses which can cause premature
degradation of the stator elastomer.

There are two configurations of the PC Pump Gas Separator:

Heavy oil configuration for oil less than 24API.
Light oil configurations for oil greater than 24 API.






















PC Pump Gas Separator



The PC Pump Gas Separator may be run into any progressing
cavity well where it is suspect gas content is affecting the
production performance. There are four main reasons why you
would want to install a Gas Separator in your well.

1. The efficiency of your P.C. Pump is low. This can be
caused by significant gas content in the fluids you
are lifting.

2. Your P.C. Pumps working life is short. High gas
content can cause the stator to burn up and break
apart due to friction without lubrication as the
rotator turns inside it.

3. Your pump elastomer experiences blistering when
pulled from the hole. Over time gas becomes
absorbed under pressure into the elastomer. Upon
pulling the pump, the gas will want to escape to
the lower pressure. This will cause the elastomer of
your pump to blister.

4. You have torqueing problems with your pump due
to sand content. As the fluids and sand are pulled
through the Gas Separator the centrifugal forces
they experience combine them into a slurry which
is easily producible by the PC Pump.
Function of the PC Pump Gas Separator

The P.C. Pump Gas Separator functions by forcing the fluids (which contain gases) to follow through it before reaching the pump. As
the fluids first enter the Gas Separator they must flow through intake ports which divide the flow and begin gas separation. The fluid
then moves through the auger chamber, which subjects the fluid to centrifugal force. The principles of centrifugal force maintain that
the more dense materials (e.g. water and oil) will be forced to the outside of the chamber while the gas will remain close to the
middle. As the fluids reach the top of the auger chamber liquid is removed via outlet ports (around the perimeter of the top sub)
which lead to the pump itself. As the separated gas reaches the top of the auger chamber it flows along a tapered end which guides it
to an outlet port in the center of the top sub. This central outlet port then vents the gas into the annulus, where it may then migrate
up the casing.
