Electrical Submersible Pumps - In-house training by PetroSkillsThis course can be conducted on site at your location exclusively for your staff. ESPs are one of the higher volume methods of lift. ESPs have advantages over some other high volume methods since they can create a higher drawdown on the formation and achieve more production, if problems such as gas interference and sand production can be solved. This course will allow the user to become familiar with the ESP system and when it should be used. All components will be described in detail. Design and analysis problems will be done using advanced computer programs. Some films will be shown mostly illustrating installation, operation and removal of failed equipment, new products and best practices. Problems will be solved and discussed by the class members each day. Discussion is encouraged concerning experiences of successes and failures. Problems addressing solids, gas handling and viscosity are addressed. Best practices are stressed throughout so a long lasting system can be developed for maximum profit. SCADA controls and VSD's are discussed. The attendee will learn the function of the various components, and the concerns about installation, operation, and removal of failed equipment. The participant will be able to evaluate the design a system for current and future conditions, analyze an installed system, and many other operational concerns of the ESP system. New developments are added to the course as they become available to the industry. Although the course contains use of advanced computer programs for design and analysis, much of the material is devoted to best practices, which is usable by both engineers and technicians. One personal computer is provided, at additional cost, for each two participants. Find out more
