Abstract:
A gas anchor for use below a reciprocating well pump comprises a series of elongated chambers formed by radially extensive baffles for substantially blocking the space between a perforated liquid discharge tube and a perforated surrounding sleeve. The relative sizes and locations of the openings in the walls of the discharge tube and sleeve and the size of the chambers provide efficient operation and freedom from mechanical damage.
