Abstract
An improved pump tool (10, 110, 200) is provided for lifting oil from within a casing 18 of a well. The gas in the well provides the lifting action. The pump tool includes a body (22) which is preferably formed of ABS plastic. The body defines an upper chamber (24) and a lower chamber (26) which is connected through a hydrostatically operated valve (44). The plastic body weighs less, is chemically resistant and reduces the risk of spark and explosion.
