An apparatus for boosting the pressure of flowing fluids includes a plurality of jet pumps (10a, 10b), each having a LP inlet for LP fluid, a HP inlet for HP liquid and a MP outlet for MP fluid. A fluid separator device (16) is connected to receive the MP fluid from the outlets of the jet pumps, a gas outlet line (20) for a separated gas phase and a liquid outlet (22a, 22b) for separated liquid phase. A liquid return line (24b, 38) is connected to the liquid outlet of the fluid separator device and the HP inlets of the jet pumps (10a, 10b) for returning at least some of the separated liquid phase from the fluid separator device to the HP inlets of the jet pumps, and a mechanical pump (32) is connected into the liquid return line for boosting the pressure of the liquid delivered to the HP inlets of the jet pumps. A flow control system (6) is provided for controlling the flow of fluids through the respective jet pumps (10a, 10b). |
