Thru Tubing Deployed Electrical Submersible Pump with Downhole Wet Connector

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Electrical submersible pumps (ESPs) are frequently the optimal artificial lift option to cost-effectively maximize reservoir recovery and production. However, the full potential of ESPs in offshore and remote locations has historically been limited by two key challenges: rig deployment and the inability to access the reservoir without pulling the production tubing. In order to reduce the burden operators face when utilizing ESPs, the company has developed a system that makes installation and retrieval of an ESP as simple as running a production logging tool; radically reducing the cost and downtime associated with ESP workovers by utilizing a lightweight slickline unit instead of a rig or workover unit to replace the ESP.
