ABSTRACT:
A gas compressor is employed downhole in a well for pressurizing formation gas. The gas compressor is driven by a downhole electrical motor. The downhole assembly also includes a pump. The pump might be located below the motor and driven by the same motor. In that event, the pump pumps liquid being produced by the formation downward to a liquid disposal formation. Also, the pump may pump the liquid to the surface, with the gas being delivered into a repressurizing zone.
