Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001638

A pressure-operated device installed in a gas-lift mandrel within the production tubing, which controls the injection of high-pressure gas into the wellbore. These valves open and close based on differential pressures, allowing gas to enter the tubing string at specific depths. They are designed to operate at predetermined injection pressures and temperatures.
