    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to adaptively control a hydraulic fluid supply to supply a driving fluid for applying a driving force on a piston in a gas compressor, the driving force being cyclically reversed between a first direction and a second direction to cause the piston to reciprocate in strokes. During a first stroke of the piston, a speed of the piston, a temperature of the driving fluid, and a load pressure applied to the piston is monitored. Reversal of the driving force after the first stroke is controlled based on the speed, load pressure, and temperature.

    Abstract: Systems are provided comprising at least one driving cylinder comprising a driving chamber and a driving piston within the driving chamber. The driving piston separates the driving chamber into a driving fluid zone for receiving a driving fluid and a buffer zone for receiving a buffer fluid. The driving piston is movable in the driving chamber by the driving fluid. The systems may also comprise a driven cylinder comprising a driven chamber and a driven piston moveable in the driven chamber. The driven piston is connected to and driven by the driving piston to move within the driven chamber. The driven chamber comprises an input port configured to receive a driven fluid at a first, lower pressure into the driven chamber and an output port configured to expel the driven fluid at a second, higher pressure from the driven chamber when the driven fluid is pressurized by the driven piston. The buffer fluid is different from the driving fluid and the driven fluid, and the buffer fluid in the buffer zone separates the driving fluid from the driven fluid.

    Abstract: A compressor comprises a first cylinder for compressing a fluid and a second cylinder for driving a piston in the first cylinder. The first cylinder comprises a chamber configured to receive the fluid. The piston is reciprocally movable in the chamber for compressing the fluid. The chamber comprises four ports at the first end including two inlet ports and two outlet ports with a check valve is connected to each port. Each of the four ports is slanted such that the plurality of check valves and inlet and outlet conduits are spaced apart from the second cylinder. The compressor further comprises an inlet conduit to supply the fluid from a fluid source to the chamber through the inlet ports and an outlet conduit for receiving fluid from the chamber through the outlet ports.

    Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for pumping a multi-phase fluid from an oil well. The method may comprise delivering a flow of a multi-phase fluid to a multi-phase fluid pumping system, wherein the multi-phase fluid has a gas/liquid ratio that varies during operation. The multi-phase fluid pumping system is operated to increase the pressure of the multi-phase fluid that is delivered thereto. Thereafter the flow of pressurized multi-phase fluid is delivered from the multi-phase fluid pumping system to one or more discharge conduits. The pump system may have a pump fluid chamber between opposed pairs of buffer chambers and driving fluid chambers. Seals may be provided to seal the respective chambers.

    Abstract: A hydraulic lift system comprises a plurality of hydraulic cylinders with pistons therein, having piston rods that are mechanically interconnected so that the pistons and piston rods move upwards and downwards in unison. A hydraulic fluid communication sub-system is operable to deliver fluid from a source of pressurized hydraulic fluid to at least a first cylinder to drive the pistons through an upstroke, from the source of pressurized hydraulic fluid to a second cylinder to drive the pistons through a downstroke, and from the first cylinder to the second cylinder. A hydraulic fluid flow control system selectively directs fluid from the source of pressurized hydraulic fluid either to the first cylinder to drive the pistons upwardly or to the second cylinder to drive the pistons downwardly. During the downstroke, hydraulic fluid flow control system directs hydraulic fluid from the first cylinder to the second cylinder help drive the pistons downwardly.

    Abstract: A compressor comprises a first cylinder for compressing a fluid and a second cylinder for driving a piston in the first cylinder. The first cylinder comprises a chamber with first and second ends. The piston is reciprocally movable along an axial direction of the chamber for compressing a fluid. Three or more first ports at the first end include at least one first inlet port and at least one first outlet port. Three or more second ports at the second end include at least one second inlet port and at least one second outlet port. Each port has an axial direction parallel to the axial direction of the chamber. A check valve is connected inline with each port along the axial direction of the port.
