- Artificial lift can be divided into two types,
based on lifting mechanism:
5. Electrical Submersible Pumping
• Second most commonly used method
worldwide (+100,000 wells)
• Used massively in Russia and in
significant number of wells in US.
• Responsible for the highest amount of
total fluids produced (oil and water) by any
artificial lift method and an ideal method
for high water cut wells.
• Problems with sand production, high gas
liquid ratio and high bottom hole
temperatures.
7. • REDA: Russian Electric Dynamo of Arutunoff estalished in
1930 in Bartlesville
• Became Schlumerger-REDA Production Systems in the late
1990s
History of ESPs
8. Artificial lift pumps Comparing
LSP = (enclosed) lineshaft pump
• Impeller position needs adjustment at initial start up.
• Requires an almost perfect vertical (max 4° tolerance)
pumping chamber.
10. ESP = electric submersible pump
• High immersion depth
• Long lifetime High
• Easier handling and shorter (installation/removal) time
• Ability to accommodate deviated
• high service temperatures (up to 250/300°C)
• Worldwide service facilities
• Less accessible motor, seal, thrust bearing
• Higher operation speed(higher wear)

16. 1- Deep-well turbine pump
- Use it pump for lift a water
from high well-deep .
- Is group of centrifugal pumps
connect to gather (stages) for
lift the water from stage to
stage .
- May be reaches deep full to
600 m ; but not preferably
increase a bout larger then 200
m ; because increase friction
shaft with bearings and
efficiency decrease .
17. 2- Submersible turbine pump
- At this type the pump and motor connect at the
same production under the water .
- Efficiency of this type large because motor
connect direct with pump ; effective cooling and
friction low .
18. Advantages of submersible pump
- Low cast at well have small diameter and
high deep .
- Suitable for quiet places like gardens and
hospital because not give nose.
- Suitable for not straight deep-wells
20. Disadvantages of submersible pump
- Cost of motor is very high .
- High maintenance cast because it difficult to fixing motor .
- May be create problem if well contain grit and small stone in water.
34. STEP 1: Basic Data
Well Data: Casing size and weight, Tubing size, type and thread Perforated or open hole, Pump setting depth (measured
and vertical), Deviation survey
Production Data:, Wellhead tubing pressure, Present production rate, Production fluid level/Pump intake pressure,
Static fluid level/ Static Bottom hole pressure, Datum point, Bottom-hole temperature, Desired production rate, Gas-oil
ration, Water cut.
Well Fluid Conditions: Specific gravity of water, Oil API or specific gravity, Specific gravity of gas, Bubble-
point pressure of gas, Viscosity of oil, PVT data
Power Sources: Available primary voltage, Frequency, Power source capability
Possible Problems: Sand, Corrosion, Paraffin, Emulsion, Gas, Temperature
35. STEP 2: Well Production Capacity
- The Inflow Performance Relationship (IPR) or the
Productivity Index (PI) of the well depending on the
pressure regime should be integrated with the Vertical
Lift Performance (VLP) Curve to determine the
productive capacity of the well which would be used in
the ESP design.
36. STEP 3: Fluid Volumes Calculation
- The accurate calculation of fluid volumes and type at the pump
- intake is very important in pump design The presence and volume of free
gas at the pump intake must be taken into consideration
- Ideally, if the gas remains in solution, the pump behaves normally,
however as gas to liquid ratio increases beyond the critical value of
between 10-15%, the pump efficiency decreases and lower pump
produced.
37. STEP 3: Fluid Volumes Calculation
The free gas volume is calculate from the following equations/correlations
a. Solution Gas Oil Ratio (Dissolved Gas Oil Ratio)
47. STEP 5: Pump Type Selection-A
Notes on Pump Selection:
- Larger diameter pumps and motor are less expensive and they operate at higher efficiencies.
- Select the highest efficient pump that will fit in the casing
- If the well’s production capacity is not accurately known, choose a pump with a steep characteristic curve
- If desired volume falls at a point where two pumps have approximately the same efficiency, choose the
pump type which requires the greater number of stages
- If gas is present in the produced fluid, a gas separator may be required to achieve efficient operation
48.
49.
50.
51.
52. - These combinations must be carefully determined to operate the pump at the optimal production
rate, material strength and temperature limits based on the Company’s catalogue.
STEP 6: Optimum Size of Components
Engineering considerations for sizing pump’s components include
• Maximum Loading Limits
• Maximum Diameter of Unit
• Velocity of fluid passing a motor (this affects rate of pump cooling, a velocity of 1
ft/s is recommended, if not affective a motor jacket may be required to increase
the velocity).
53. . Optimum Selection of Pump
From the Performance Curve of the selected pump type, determine the number of stages required to produce
the anticipated capacity based on the calculated dynamic head (TDH). Note that the performance curves are
single stage pump characteristic curves, hence the total stages required is determined from.
.
54. . Optimum Selection of Moto
The optimum motor is selected by first determining the brake horsepower required per stage by the
pump. This value is also gotten from performance curve. Therefore, brake horsepower (BHP) required to
drive a pump is then calculated from
. Optimum Selection of Gas Separator
Refer to company catalogue for recommendations based on pump type and well
environment
Note: More power will be needed by the motor to drive an added gas separator, this must be added on
when selecting the motor, if a gas separator would be needed in the pump.
55. STEP 7: Electrical Cable
Electric cable to be used is selected based on the evaluation of the following parameters:
Cable Size
- Cable size is dependent on voltage drop, amperage and available space between casing and collars
- its is recommended that the voltage drop should be less than 30 volts/1000 ft or less than 15% of
motor nameplate voltage. -
This is based primarily on the fluid conditions and bottom-hole temperature

•Solar panels have no moving parts; most have a warranty of at least 20 years.
•No fuel deliveries, and very little maintenance.
•Most solar pumps operate without the use of storage batteries.
•Water tank simple, economical means of storage
93. Thermocycle conversion
thermodynamic cycles are used to convert solar energy
into mechanical energy to power the solar pump.
Solar energy is absorbed by a solar collector,
or by a solar concentrating collector, that runs in a
cycle converting the heat energy absorbed
into shaft power that drives a mechanical pump.

downhole sensor data provides
an opportunity to diagnose ESP
performance from a hydraulic
standpoint
- Downhole sensor data provides
an immediate direct accurate
measurement of ESP
performance
156. ESP operating parameters
- pump intake pressure (Pi) :- should be used to prevent pump-off or to prevent the well
from being drawn down below a given pressure (bubble point or a minimum bottomhole flowing pressure).
- discharge pressure (Pd) :- respond to changes in specific gravity of the produced fluid
(watercut or gas), prevent a pump being deadheaded or operated in a low flow scenario.
- intake temperature (Ti) :- acts as a back-up to motor temperature.
- motor temperature (Tm) :- can be motor winding temperature or motor oil temperature.
157. - Pump Pressure Differential (dP)
ESP operating parameters
can be used to ensure that
the ESP is run within range.

173. Heavy fine-Sand Problem:
- With sand pumping, the service life
of the pump is reduced drastically.
- Too high a clearance result in
high vibrations which reduce
the discharge and overload
the motor.
178. Troubleshooting:
Submersible pump won't start
Problem Check Correct
Power is not supplied to the
submersible pump
Place a voltmeter across power
lines coming into the submersible
pump to check the power supply
for the overload protection box.
The power company should be
consulted if there is no power to
the box.
There is no overload protection
Examine the circuit breaker and
the fuses to the submersible pump
to ensure that they are operating
correctly.
Replace blown fuses and reset the
breaker if it has been tripped.
Pressure switch on submersible
pump is damaged
With the submersible pump
pressure switch in a closed
position, check the voltage across
the switch. If the voltage drop is at
the same level as the line voltage,
the switch is obviously not making
contact.
The contact points should be
cleaned and/or the pressure switch
replaced for the submersible
pump.
179. Troubleshooting:
Submersible pump will not stop running
Problem Check Correct
Pressure switch on the submersible
pump is defective
Pressure switch points may have
adhered to each other causing the
switch to remain in a closed position.
Clean the points on the pressure
switch. If this does not work, the
switch on the submersible pump
needs to be replaced.
Drop line has a leak
Raise the pipe on the submersible
pump and check for leaks.
The damaged section of the drop pipe
should be replaced.
Level of water in well is too low
Restrain the output flow of the
submersible pump, then wait for the
well to recover. Re-start the pump.
Keep the valve at the restricted setting
if this has remedied the problem. If
not, the submersible pump must be
lowered further down in the well.
Submersible pump parts are damaged
The impeller, casing, and other parts
of the submersible pump may be worn
due to abrasives in the water. Lower
the pressure switch setting. If the
pump shuts off, damaged parts are
the probable cause..
Replace worn parts on the
submersible pump.
180. Troubleshooting:
Submersible pump works but delivery little or no water
Problem Check Correct
Submersible pump may be air-locked
Start and stop pump repeatedly. If
submersible pump begins working, air lock
was the problem.
If the trouble isn’t corrected by performing
this test, move on to the next possible
problem.
Water level too low in submersible pump
Well production could be too low. Limit flow
of pump output, then wait for well to
recover and re-start.
If partial limitation of flow corrects the
problem leave the valve at the restricted
setting.
Discharge line check valve installed
backwards on submersible pump
Make sure arrow that indicates direction of
flow on check valve is pointed in the right
direction.
If check valve is not pointed in the right
direction, then reverse the valve.
Blocked pump intake screen
Examine intake screen on the submersible
pump and check for mud or sand blockage.
Clean screen and make sure submersible
pump is reinstalled many feet above the
well bottom.
Worn pump parts
Reduce setting on pressure switch to see if
the submersible pump shuts off. If it does,
check for worn parts
Pull submersible pump and replace the
worn components.
181. Motor Fault’s
