Electrical Submersible Pump Design


A 10,000-ft-deep well in the reservoir described in Appendix B is to be produced at a
rate of 3000 STB/d with an ESP when the average reservoir pressure is 4336 psi.
The well will be equipped with 3 1/2 in. tubing (ε = 0.001, I.D. = 2.992 in.), the
surface tubing pressure is 100 psig, and the well casing is 7 in. Assume that the
minimum suction pressure required by the pump is 120 psi. Determine the required
specifications for an electrical submersible pump for this application.
