Systems and methods for controlling operation of a well, of which the method includes receiving an operation setting for operation of a system that provides lift gas into and produces gas from the well, monitoring operation of the system using a first controller, determining, using the first controller, that the system is not operating at the operation setting, and in response to determining that the system is not operating at the operation setting, sending, using a two-way communication link from the first controller to a second controller, a control signal to the second controller. The control signal is configured to cause the second controller to modify an operation of a compressor of the system.

A traveling relief valve for down-hole use in a well. In one embodiment, the traveling relief valve comprises a seat, a screw, a seal, a carrier, a spring, and a ported tube, where the traveling relief valve is configured to include a first flow interface between the seat and the carrier for flow when the well is producing, and a second flow interface between the seal and the carrier for back-flow in the well.

A bypass assembly for a packer includes a first adapter including a first central bore, a first radial opening communicating with the first central bore, and first axial openings prevented from fluid communication the first central bore. The bypass assembly includes a second adapter including a second central bore, a second radial opening communicating with the second central bore, and second axial openings prevented from fluid communication with the second central bore. The bypass assembly includes a tubular coupled to the first central bore and the second central bore, the tubular being configured to extend through the packer. A first flowpath is defined from the first radial opening through the tubular and the second radial opening, and a second flowpath is defined through the first axial openings, between the tubular and the packer, and through the second axial openings.
