Completion - Definition
• After a well is drilled and the hydrocarbon
bearing reservoirs have been established, it
needs to be completed to allow the hydrocarbons
to flow from the reservoir to surface.
ESP Characteristics
The standard 60Hz producing range from 100 bbl/D up
to 90,000 bbl/D
• ESP characteristics are based on a constant rotation speed,
which depends on the frequency of the AC supply:
• 3500 RPM with 60 Hertz
• 2915 RPM with 50 Hertz
• Currently operated in wells with BHT up to 350 degF
• Efficiently lifts fluids in wells deeper than 12,000ft
• System efficiency ranges from 18 to 68%
• Has a narrow production rate range
• It does not handle free gas
ESP Typical Installation
Sucker Rod Pumps
• A sucker rod is the linking involving the surface pumping
unit and the subsurface pump, which is located at or near
the bottom of the oil well.
