CHCe – Casing Head Compressor
Innovative and reliable, low-speed compressor for brownfields
When oil wells get old, they often suffer from gas pressure build-up between casing and tubing of the well.
HOERBIGER electrically-driven Casing Head Compressor – CHCe – helps oil producers safely and cost-efficiently release the casing gas from the well and inject it further into the pipe system.
Once installed the Casing Head Compressor brings the following benefits:
- Increased oil production due to pressure drop in the well
- Improved pump regime and decreased pump wear due to higher liquid level
- Decreased number of gas lock issues in pumps
- No casing gas venting on site
HOERBIGER CHCe features a single-stage, double-acting cylinder, driven by a low-speed & low-power motor, which makes it a perfect fit for brownfield operations.
