Lectura. Liquid Loading in Gas Wells

This document contains calculations of critical flow rates and velocities for water and condensate removal through pipes of various diameters. It provides the internal diameter, cross-sectional area, pressure, temperature, and elevation for each pipe, and calculates the critical velocity, flow rate in million standard cubic feet per day and per month for both water and condensate in each pipe. It also includes calculations for pipe volumes in barrels per foot and feet per barrel for different pipe sizes.

21 The critical rate is calculated by the Turner 5. 62 (67−0. 0031 p) 4.02(45−0.0031 p)
