TiGR Valve

Responsive Gas Lock Mitigation for Rod Pumps.

Overview

Automatic Response

  • An isolatable chamber with a gas sensing device that responds to gas lock.

  • Converts a standard travelling valve into a condition-responsive system.

Reduction in the influence of Gas

  • Increase and stabilize pump fillage under dynamic conditions.

  • Reduce non-productive compression strokes.

  • Enhance volumetric efficiencies.

  • Shift wells into a more stable operating regime over time.

Maximize Production and Reduce Operating Costs

Rod pumped wells operating under multiphase conditions frequently experience unstable pump behavior, reduced fillage, and suppressed production due to gas interference and inconsistent valve action.

The TiGR Valve is a first-of-its-kind gas lock mitigation tool that adapts dynamically to changing gas-liquid ratios within a standard rod pump.

Threaded onto the plunger, the TiGR Valve tackles gas lock from inside the pump.
