Abstract

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for processing a well stream or production fluid, and in particular for separating and compressing the well stream or production fluid. The systems and methods include mechanisms to efficiently compress the well stream or production fluid and to mix the well stream or production fluid before it enters a compressor with one or more compressing stages, driven by a motor. A gas-to-liquid ratio of the fluid entering the compressor may be regulated to ensure it aligns with the tolerance levels and operational envelope of the compressor. In some embodiments, a cooling mechanism may be provided for the compressor motor, utilizing fluid extracted from the well stream.
