OK David, my problem is not so difficult because the wells are already operating with sucker rods and the annulus is bypassed to the flowline. I would appreciate any advising from you to buy one of this electronic handheld devices. The engines I´m looking for require something like 50 to 60...
Thank you also dcasto and I wished I had a hand like yours, as I wished to have a nose like some wine connaiseurs. My concern is really that, guess somehow if a particular pumped well is suitable to a gas engine as prime mover. If I´m not mistaking, I was told or read in the past that someone...
Thank you David, but assuming you don´t have a recording gauge how could you guess or know if a particular pumped well is capable to produce enough gas through a pressurized annulus to run a gas engine? I mean, before you commit yourself ordering an engine without knowing if you have enough gas...

Assuming that besides reducing back pressure on the formation you also want to use the annulus gas to fuel a gas engine as your pumping unit prime mover, does anybody know a "low tech" wellsite test to determine the gas daily flow rate? I mean, something without orifice plates...
