Who we are

In 1993, AppSmiths® was founded in Houston to develop a gas-lift design and optimization software tool for Shell Oil Company. Five years later, this solution (WinGLUE®) became commercially available outside of their primary client and was introduced to the marketplace.
The company’s petroleum engineering software tools enable oil and gas operators and engineers to design, model, and optimize an integrated production system. Oil and gas companies globally have adopted the software and many standardized on the technology. Fast forward to today, other cutting-edge technologies have been successfully commercialized with new technologies and research and development as a top business strategy.

Our Products

WellTracer®

WellTracer® creates a snapshot of the well performance by injecting the gas into the gas lift injection line and its concentration is recorded at the well head

WinGLUE®

WinGLUE® is a Gas Lift well surveillance, analysis, prediction, design, optimization and simulation software developed and field tested by Shell and AppSmiths.

WebGLUE

WebGLUE is a cloud-web application that together with WinGLUE® makes a perfect match for the analysis, surveillance, design, modeling, prediction and optimization of gas lift wells

AppSmiths® Technology

WellTracer®

Is an injection point surveillance and monitoring tool for gas lift wells that uses pantented technology. With it you can measure your operations, check performance and discover problems without risky interventions or loss of production.

WellTracer® is suitable for horizontal, deviated or dual-completion wells where pressure lifting is not feasible.

AppSmiths® Technology

AVT System

Is a valve testing tool that allows to know the operation and performance of Gas Lift valves.
AVT works by simulating gas injection; which allows testing if the valves tolerate the different pressures and temperatures to which it could be exposed if it were in a well.
Test Benefits

Testing the valves allows you to know what and how many of the valves are still in operation.

Tests provided by the AVT

Valve Test Rack Closing Pressure

ValveWise

ValveWise generates reports with test information that has been performed in AVT

What can we do for you?

Our mission is to provide you with technology solutions that increase production in gas lift wells with the knowledge of our best engineers and developers.

I need to get engineers in the field to speed with the basics of operation.

I am still working to understand how to get the greatest benefit from the tools.

Lots of my wells are older wells and produce low volumes of oil and won’t benefit from costly surveys

Most of my wells are producing at maximum oil production now. What would be the benefit of optimizing this well?

I am not sure if my wells are injecting at the optimal points

I don't know where my fluid levels might be in my wells
