Abstract
Systems and methods for removing fluid from a subterranean well with a fluid removal system includes lowering an elongated member into tubing of the subterranean well to a lower position, the elongated tubing having a plunger or valve body located at an end, wherein fluid passes past the plunger or through a valve opening as the valve body moves into the subterranean well. The plunger or valve body is moved in a direction out of the subterranean well so that fluid cannot pass the plunger or through the valve opening, moving the fluid out of the subterranean well.
