What is a Conventional Plunger?

Conventional plunger lift is a proven, cost-effective artificial lift method designed for marginal wells, typically producing under 50 BLPD and 200 MCFD. This system efficiently removes liquids from the tubing string, eliminating liquid loading and extending well life.
Optimized for low-pressure wells: Ideal for marginal production rates
Durable & Cost-Effective: Long plunger life with minimal maintenance
Handles tubing irregularities: Versatile design adapts to well conditions

How It Works

Understanding Conventional Plungers

The plunger creates an efficient seal in the tubing, pushing fluids to the surface while minimizing back pressure.
With no mechanical shifting required, the system operates reliably with minimal downtime.
Ideal for wells that can’t sustain critical flow rates, reducing liquid loading and maximizing production efficiency.
