Abstract
A technique for facilitating the movement of multi-phase fluids. The technique utilizes a compressor pump and a production pump. The compressor pump compresses a fluid to remove vapor phase and then discharges the pressurized fluid to a production pump. The production pump produces the pressurized fluid to a desired location with greater efficiency due to reduction of the vapor phase.
