What is a velocity string?

A flowing gas well loses pressure and production velocity with time, which causes the well to fill with produced water and eventually stop production. A velocity string, which has a smaller ID than the tubing, is run through the tubing and set at a desired depth to increase the flow velocity in gas-producing wells. Baker Oil Tools’ Velox™ system can be used as a velocity string to extend the life of gas wells.
