Abstract
Described herein are embodiments of apparatuses and methods that include an annular flow lubricator. In an exemplary embodiment, the annular flow lubricator includes a body housing an internal flow tube such that well flow enters a lower portion of the internal flow tube, travels up the internal flow tube, and exits an upper portion of the internal flow tube. Upon exiting the upper portion of the internal flow tube, well flow then travels in an annulus between the body of the lubricator and a wall of the internal flow tube before exiting an outlet port of the lubricator.
