Abstract: An artificial lift system removes reservoir fluids from a wellbore. A gas lift system is disposed in a first tubing string anchored by a packer, and a downhole pump, or alternative plunger lift, may be positioned with a second tubing string. A dual string anchor may be disposed with the first tubing string to limit the movement of the second tubing string. The second tubing string may be removably attached with the dual string anchor with an on-off tool without disturbing the first tubing string. A one-way valve may also be used to allow reservoir fluids to flow into the first tubing string in one direction only. The second tubing string may be positioned within the first tubing string and the injected gas may travel down the annulus between the first and second tubing strings. A bi-flow connector may anchor the second string to the first string and allow reservoir liquids in the casing tubing annulus to pass through the connector to the downhole pump. Injected gas may be allowed to pass vertically through the bi- flow connector to lift liquids from below the downhole pump to above the downhole pump. The bi-flow connector prevents the downwardly injected gas from interfering with the reservoir fluids flowing through the bi-flow connector. In another embodiment, gas from the reservoir lifts reservoir liquids from below the downhole pump to above the downhole pump. A first tubing string may contain a downhole pumping system or alternative plunger lift above a packer assembly. A concentric tubing system below the packer may lift liquids using the gas from the reservoir.
