Electrical Submersible Pump

Artificial Lift is a very essential tool to increase the oil production rate or lift the oil column in the wellbore up to the surface. Artificial lift is the key in case of bottom hole pressure is not sufficient to produce oil from the reservoir to the surface. So, a complete study is carried to select the suitable type of artificial lift according to the reservoir and wellbore conditions like water production, sand production, solution gas-oil ratio, and surface area available at the surface. Besides, the maintenance cost and volume of produced oil have an essential part in the selection of the type of artificial lift tool. Artificial lift tools have several types such as Sucker Rod Pump, Gas Lift, Hydraulic Pump, Progressive Cavity Pump, Jet Pump, and Electrical Submersible Pump. All these types require specific conditions for subsurface and surface parameters to apply in oil wells. This paper will study the Electrical Submersible Pump “ESP” which is considered one of the most familiar types of artificial lifts in the whole world. Electrical Submersible Pump “ESP” is the most widely used for huge oil volumes. In contrast, ESP has high maintenance and workover cost. Finally, this paper will discuss a case study for the Electrical Submersible pump “ESP” design in an oil well. This case study includes the entire well and reservoir properties involving fluid properties to be applied using Prosper software. The results of the design model will impact oil productivity and future performance of oil well.

Abstract The electrical submersible pump (ESP) is an essential and critical component in most low-enthalpy geothermal wells where high volumes of hot (up to 120°C) and harsh geothermal brine is required to be transported to the surface. Despite a great deal of knowledge and experience in the design and operation of ESP in the petroleum and water sector, reliability of geothermal ESPs requires further improvement. Frequent failures have been observed that resulted from sub-optimum design, installation and operation of these systems which made the lifetime of them shorter than the expected 5-7 years. In this paper we summarize the typical conditions in low-enthalpy geothermal systems (specifically in the Netherlands) and several observed reliability challenges. Lastly, we will discuss the gaps between the petroleum, water and geothermal practices and identify a list of R&D opportunities to better understand the geothermal ESP failures and improve ESP reliability. Testing ESPs in realistic geothermal conditions and a proper monitoring of the well-ESP system is crucial to improve the reliability of existing ESP designs and can enable the development of new geothermal ESP system designs.

Meningkatnya penggunaan beban non-linier dalam instalasi kelistrikan mengakibatkan masalah distorsi harmonik dalam sistem kelistrikan industrial dan komersial.Beban non-linier yang banyak digunakan dalam operasi minyak dan gas bumi adalah variable speed drive (VSD) dan uninterruptible power supply (UPS). PT Medco E&P Indonesia memberdayakan Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP) sebagai metode produksi minyak bumi yang diterapkan di lapangan produksi Kaji Semoga. Instalasi ESP dilengkapi dengan VSD sebagai pendukung asut dan pengendali kecepatan motor penggerak ESP demi mencapai besaran produksi minyak bumi. Operasi VSD membangkitkan gangguan harmonik yang dapat mengganggu sistem daya listrik seperti panas berlebih dari peralatan listrik, kegagalan prematur pada peralatan berputar dan pembatas arus yang gagal kerja. Pada umumnya untuk mengendalikan masalah ini, harmonic filter dipasang untuk mengkompensasi distorsi harmonik. Instalasi harmonic filter berkontribusi pada biaya pemeliharan kehandalan sistem daya listrik di lapangan produksi Kaji Semoga. Makalah ini menjabarkan metode-metode alternatif untuk mengendalikan distorsi harmonik dalam sistem distribusi daya lsitrik termasuk pemasangan harmonic filter. Metode untuk mengendalikan distorsi harmoniktersebut termasuk penggunaan trafo phase-shifting. Metode lain untuk menanggulangi distorsi harmonik adalah merancang ukuran konduktor selain sebagai proteksi arus beban-lebih juga bisa menerima pengaruhharmonic pada arus beban. Metode-metode alternatif ini bisa mengurangi biaya dari usaha menghilangkan distorsi harmonik secara signifikan.
