Purpose: of this paper is to analyze the possibility of increasing the efficiency of wellbore jet pumps by twisting the injected flow. The absence of moving parts, easy transfer of energy, the ability to operate a wide range of performance and low cost have resulted in the use of ejection systems in many oil and gas deposits. The main disadvantage of borehole ejection systems is the insufficient value of the jet pump efficiency. The energy efficiency of downhole jet pumps can be improved by swirling the mixed flows. Design/methodology/approach: To characterize the effect of circulating flows was used an additional factor in the form of the values of the inclination angle of guiding elements that swirl the flow or the rotation frequency of jet pump elements. In the process of determining the values characterizing the operating process of ejection systems, the flow rates of the working and injected flow and the pressure values in front of the nozzle, the receiving chamber and the chamber at the outlet from the diffuser of the jet pump are subject to direct measurement. Swirling of the injected flow was carried out by placing a sleeve with guiding elements, manufactured using 3D printing technology, in the receiving chamber of the jet pump. Findings: The analysis revealed that in the design of downhole jet units, there are used guiding elements, mainly the screw, blade and tangential type, to swirl the flow. A highlighted list of factors that have a direct effect on the flows mixing process. During experimental studies of swirling injected flow type jet pump characteristics, there is obtained an increase in pressure and energy parameters. Research limitations/implications: The task of further research is to determine the characteristics of a downhole swirling injected flow type jet pump for conditions of combined swirling of the working and injected flows. Practical implications: The obtained results make it possible to take into account the presence of guiding elements in the flow path of the jet pump for swirling the flow. Originality/value: It is established that the relationship between the design and technological parameters of the local swirling of the mixed medium is determined by the ratio of rotating and axial components of the flow velocity in the flow path of the jet pump.
