生产或加工的气体通常处于比运输或加工系统所需的压力低的压力下，并且通常使用昂贵的压缩机来提高其压力。在某些应用中，油田布局和操作条件也会限制生产威尔斯井的产量。喷射泵的使用是一种成本有效的方式，以压缩机成本的一小部分来提高低压（LP）气体的压力或增加LP威尔斯井的产量。喷射泵还可以帮助消除现有压缩机的瓶颈。本文介绍了它们的工作原理、影响其性能的因素以及系统在石油和天然气工业中的常见应用范围。文中给出了一些最近的现场实例，并就其使用的经济方面提出了评论意见。最近的现场应用已经证明，根据现场条件，资本的回收期在几天到几周内实现。
Abstract The produced or processed gas is often at a lower pressure than that demanded by the transportation or process system and costly compressors are generally used to boost its pressure. In some applications the field layout and operation conditions also cause restrictions in production from the producing wells. The use of jet pumps is a cost effective way to boost the pressure of low pressure (LP) gas or increase production from LP wells at a fraction of the cost of compressors. Jet pumps can also help to debottleneck the existing compressors. This paper describes the principle of their operation, factors affecting their performance and the common range of applications of the system in the oil and gas industry. Some recent field examples are given, together with comments on the economic aspects of their use. Recent field applications have proven that the payback period for the capital is achieved in a few days to a few weeks, depending on the field conditions.
