Abstract:
The present invention concerns a system for extracting the liquids from a well producing liquid and gas. The system comprises a separation wall defining, in the well, a first space and a second space; a liquid-gas separator; and a system for eliminating separated liquid. The first space is suitable for conveying a mixture comprising the gas and liquid from a production area to the separator. The separator is suitable for separating the gas and liquid from the mixture. The second space receives the liquid separated from the mixture. Finally, the elimination system is suitable for eliminating the separated liquid using at least the gravitational potential energy of said separated liquid in the second space.
