- WEQ Well Equipment
- Definition
- A downhole pump and supporting equipment used to ensure flowing production of fluids at the desired or necessary rate.
- Description
- Pumps are required when the formation pressure is insufficient. Most petroleum wells are eventually put on pumps as pressure declines during production. The exceptions are in strong waterdrive reservoirs or in settings where pressure maintenance by gas or water injection is sufficient to maintain a high reservoir pressure.
