Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

ESPs have advantages over some of the other artificial lift methods because they can generate a higher formation drawdown and achieve a higher rate. However, their performance is impacted by gas interference and formation sand production, both of which have to be addressed when setting ESPs in production wells.

This course will familiarize the user with the ESP system and its optimum application. All components will be described in detail. The course uses computer software for numerous design and analysis class problems. Some films will be shown to illustrate installation, operation, and removal of failed equipment, new products, and best practices. Discussion is encouraged concerning experiences of successes and failures. Comparisons are made to other lift methods to help facilitate the optimum method selection.

Course Objectives
At the end of the training course, participants will be able to

  • Optimize well productivity using ESP systems
  •  Identify the function of each component of the ESP system, and to select optional components and add-ons
  •  Design and analyze a system using computer software
  •  Apply best practices to extend system life
  •  Optimize system power efficiency
  •  Manage gas, solids, corrosion, and viscosity associated with produced fluids
  •  Determine if an ESP system is the optimum artificial lift system for a given producer
  •  Monitor system performance using the different types of sensors available
  •  Run ESP system troubleshooting.
