New view on continuous-removal liquids from gas wells

The paper adopts the view that the liquid droplets entrained in gas wells tend to be flat and deduces new formulas for the continuous removal of liquids from gas wells. The results calculated from the formulas are smaller than those of Turner et al. However, the predicted results are in accord with the practical production performance of China's gas wells with liquids. The paper also gives the simple forms of these formulas and shows the load-up and near load-up production performance as well as unloaded gas wells through the wellhead, producing performance figures.
