TITLE SCHLUMBERGER ELECTRICAL SUBMERSIBLE PUMP & MULTISENSOR XT

TYPE 1 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE – PERENCO GABON – OPY-


OPY -05 – RIG
HI5

1.0 OBJECTIVE

This procedure details the installation of Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP) with a
Multisensor XT type 1 on well OPY-05 using HI5 rig for PERENCO GABON.

2.0 ACTIONS

Note: Prior to start the installation, the pump discharge head can be made & torqued
up to the first tubing to run in hole on the rig floor. Multisensor XT have to be
pressure tested as per ScSchlumberger
hlumberger procedures.

3.1 Upon Schlumberger Artificial Lift crew arrival offshore, all ESP & MDT equipments will
be checked accordingly with Schlumberger Artificial Lift pre-job procedures in place.
All ESP & MDT equipments will be taken out of shipping boxes and laid down on top of
production tubings.
All ESP equipments (motor, protector, pump etc) will be fitted with their specified
lifting clamps ready to be picked up.
During the offshore job preparation, adaptor will be fitted to the motor, XT fitted to the
adaptor and centralizer made up to the Multisensor. Both motor and XT will then be
electrically tested.
Spooler positioning will have to be agreed on between Company man & Schlumberger
crew.
Small hand tool box will be brought to the rig floor – it contains all necessary hand
tools used for ESP installation.
Surface ESP cable will have to be tested.
Integgrated Surface Panel (ISP), Multisensor choke console (MCC) will have to be
installed.

3.2 Tie up winch to motor lifting clamp. Wrap sling around the bottom of the motor
approximately 10ft from the bottom and attach second winch (or use crane) to it.

3.3 Start lifting up of about five (5) feet the bottom of the motor and stop. Lift up of about
three (3) feet the head of the motor and stop. Repeat this step until the motor can be
lifted up in vertical position without the XT touching the floor at any time.
Once the motor is in vertical position unwrap the sling at its bottom and remove it.
Bring the motor, still in vertical position above the hole.

3.4 Start filling the motor with oil as per Schlumberger procedure.

3.3 Once the motor is serviced, lower it down in the well and rest its lifting clamp on the
stove pipe. Release the bloc. Ensure the pothole screws are tight.

3.4 Pick up the protector in the same way as the motor and bring it at about one (1) feet
above the motor.

3.5 Remove the protector’s lower shipping cap and make it up to the motor accordingly to
Schlumberger procedure.

3.7 Pick up the ESP assembly with the bloc until the lifting clamp at the motor head is lifted
one (1) foot and stop. Remove motor head’s lifting clamp.

3.8 Lower down ESP assembly in the well until the protector head’s lifting clamp rests on
the stove pipe. Release the bloc.

3.9 Pick up the Vortex Gas Separator (VGSA) in the same way as the protector and bring it
at about one (1) foot above the protector.

3.10 Remove the VGSA’s lower shipping cap and make it up to the protector accordingly to
Schlumberger procedure.

3.11 Pick up the ESP assembly with the bloc until the lifting clamp at the protector’s head is
lifted one (1) foot and stop. Remove protector’s head lifting clamp.

3.12 Lower down the ESP assembly until the VGSA’s head lifting clamp rests on the stove
pipe. Release the bloc.

3.13 Pick up the Advanced Gas Handler (AGH) in the sames way as the VGSA and bring it at
about one (1) foot above the VGSA.

3.14 Remove the AGH lower shipping cap, proceed with shimming and make it up to the
VGSA accordingly to Schlumberger procedure.

3.15 Pick up the ESP assembly with the bloc until the lifting clamp at the VGSA head is lifted
one (1) foot and stop. Remove VGSA’s head lifting clamp.

3.16 Pick up the ESP assembly out of the hole until the centralizer (at the bottom of the ESP
string – below Multisensor) is reached. Note that at this stage the total ESP length is
16.86 meters (55.31 feet).

3.17 Lower down the ESP assembly and stop when the Multisensor discharge port reaches
human height.

3.18 Connect the discharge pressure control line to the Multisensor and pressure test to
5,000 Psi for 10 minutes.
