So your bottom hole pressure is increasing due to the hydrostatic head of the liquid. But then if you start your nodal analysis from the bottom hole pressure point, and you want to calculate the tubing pressure, it would be
Tubing pressure=bottom hole pressure-hydrostatic head-friction.
The...
Right. That makes sense, and when you say the reservoir pressure and near well-bore pressure drop doesn't change, that makes sense too. But then doesn't that mean your bottom hole pressure isn't changing? If your bottom hole pressure isn't changing, what is causing the drop in production?

So we all know that the tubing pressure decreases during liquid loading of a gas well, but why?
Here's the equation I have:
Bottom hole pressure = Tubing pressure + Hydrostatic Head + Frictional Losses.
So if you begin to accumulate fluids and you get a column of fluid in your tubing, your...
