Separator en performance.
A division of Baker Hughes Inc., Centrilift is headquartered in Claremore,
Oklahoma. However, with manufacturing, service and sales facilities in over
30 countries, Centrilift is truly a global operation.
Applications Engineering
The first step in designing an ESP for optimum performance in a specific well,
Seal
particularly in a new field, is an applications engineering review of all well data.
Custom system design is employed to produce an ESP tailored to the operator’s
run life, production and economic targets. Centrilift is uniquely equipped with
the people, design tools and experience to consistently deliver ESP systems fine
tuned to specific applications.
Project Management
ESP systems can become complex designs when sophisticated control systems,
gas or water separation systems, down-hole monitoring equipment and valves or
Motor packers are added. Various deployment methods also need to be analyzed for the
most efficient and cost effective installation. Centrilift has the experience and
commitment to follow each project from design, through manufacturing and
testing, to shipping and ultimately installation and service. Centrilift delivers a
project management package that includes coordinating third party vendors,
monitoring inventory, scheduling, maintenance and meeting deadlines.

System Design and Management Software
AutographPC® with the Simulator is the only ESP design software
that demonstrates how changing conditions impact an ESP
in real and accelerated time. The Simulator adds the time variable
to sizing, illustrating the dynamics of the well in conjunction with
the pump operating point. Critical, dynamic conditions during
start-up and well drawdown are revealed—a unique advantage
of AutographPC.
AutographPC screen with the simulator
The Simulator can model dozens of events to analyze and trou-
bleshoot ESP performance and well conditions. Time can be com-
pressed using the Simulator so well conditions and production
that occurs over days or weeks can be modeled in minutes. For
instance, productivity or water cut changes can be modeled to pre-
dict future pump performance. As a troubleshooting tool, it can be
used to match current operating conditions and identify problems
like tubing leaks, pump wear, high motor temperature and gas-
lock, among others.
This screen shows the simulation of a tubing leak.
The event menu displays numerous ESP and reservoir events.
This display simulates changes in ESP drive frequency.
Pumps
Centrilift leads the industry in centrifugal pump research and Up-to-date research assures accurate correlations in AutographPC®,
application design for harsh well environments, including: High the Centrilift system sizing, selection and simulation software
GOR and high viscosity fluids, abrasives, corrosives and high program. Accurate data is vital when selecting the most cost

flow stages and multiple severe service configurations to meet
the demands of any well conditions. Centrilift patented abrasion
resistant pump designs provide cost-effective solutions for a wide
range of abrasive fluid production.
Stage design is the heart of a submersible pump. Centrilift
combines a wealth of engineering experience with cutting-edge
computer design and extensive testing to provide a constantly
evolving line of ESPs. This commitment results in tougher pumps
for longer run life as well as more efficient designs that lower
lifting costs.
For wells where high levels of gas present a problem, the MVP™
pump is the answer. Its unique patented vane design effectively
handles fluids with higher contents of free gas, prevents gas
locking and maximizes lift compared to conventional ESP systems.
MVP pumps can be installed independently; as charge pumps
for a standard ESP pump; or in conjunction with a gas separator
to produce wells with over 90% free gas.
The Best-in-Class Centurion™ pump line features an efficient
pump stage design that produces more head than any other stage
in the industry. In equal conditions, Centurion pumps produce MVP™ Centurion™ Centurion™

Gas Separators
In 1978 Centrilift designed the first centrifugal gas separator for
oilfield applications. Centrilift’s latest release, the GasMaster™
gas separator, redefines the gas handling limits of ESP systems.
Historically, multi-phase fluid wells have been challenging for
ESPs; however, Centrilift’s new design maximizes production
from wells with high free gas content.
GasMaster is an extensively researched and tested gas separator
design that raises the total flow rate through the separator into the
pump while providing improved separation efficiency. The new
high angle vane auger design, along with the re-designed intake
and discharge head assemblies for improved efficiency and reliabili-
ty, are the keys for enhanced gas handling – providing higher two
phase fluid flow and pressure increase. Higher pressure in the gas
separator chamber provides more energy to push higher volumes
of gas out into the well annulus, eliminating gas locking and
extending the application range of ESP systems in multi-phase
fluid wells.

Monitoring, Automation and Data Analysis
Down-hole Sensors
Centrilift offers down-hole sensors for use with ESP equipment
in oilfield, water, mining and other applications. Down-hole
monitoring is an effective method of accurately measuring fluid
temperatures and maintaining established well pressure while
optimizing injection rates and reserve recovery. Without this
critical information, system failures and associated workover costs
can have a substantial impact on a field’s economic performance.
Down-hole sensors allow operators to reduce resources allocated
to well monitoring while increasing reliability within a field.
“Pump off” protection increases run life and decreases well
management costs by preventing system operation in unfavorable
conditions.
Centinel™ down-hole sensors measure
pump intake pressure, intake fluid temper-
ature and motor temperature. This sensor
provides cost-effective options for improving well surveillance,
reducing maintenance costs and facilitating data collection
and analysis.
WellLIFT™, Centrilift’s newest down-hole
sensor is designed to offer a new genera-
tion of user benefits. The WellLIFT system
measures seven down-hole parameters: Intake pressure, fluid tem-
perature, motor winding temperature, gauge electronics tempera-
ture and vibration on both the X and Y axis, discharge pressure
and discharge temperature. In addition to the down-hole parame-
ters, 17 surface and diagnostic parameters are reported, allowing
operators a higher level of well management than is currently avail-
able with any other comms-on power system. A key advantage of
the WellLIFT sensor is a constant four second intake pressure
recording while additional parameters are continually measured at
24 second cycles.
Interfacing WellLIFT data is relatively simple. WellLIFT data
interfaces with a Modbus unit, which collects the data from the
high voltage choke panel and publishes it to set addresses. A
remote data communications module (RDCM) then polls the
Modbus interface unit and passes it on to the CITIBus™ for
viewing on a Graphic Control System (GSC) display.
Well management costs can be further reduced by remote well
monitoring and control through SCADA systems and via the
Internet. Centrilift down-hole sensors are available as stand-alone
GCS compatible units or as an optional expansion model
for GCS Electrospeed variable speed drives
WellLinkSM is a comprehensive well data distribution, retrieval
and analysis service, offering complete data acquisition, display,
control and analysis of ESP surface and down-hole systems. Well
data can be accessed online with a standard web browser using
the WellLink Service.
espGlobal™ is a low earth orbit communi-
cation device for remote data acquisition.
espGlobal will work over any distance or
terrain anywhere in the world, providing two way communication
via one or multiple devices. This tool offers remote management
of ESP systems.
espVision™ is Centrilift’s web-based mon-
itoring system and can be used with or
without a SCADA system. When no
SCADA system is available, espVision provides an end to end,
remotely hosted SCADA system accessible through a secure web
log-in, offering clients the advantage of SCADA without the sup-
port and maintenance. For wells with an existing SCADA system,
espVision provides real-time data collection and characterization
from the client’s data server via the Internet or private network
connection.
espExpert™, Centrilift’s new real-time data
analysis software, provides a mechanism to
merge well data with AutographPC® to
enhance system analysis and help optimization engineers under-
stand down-hole conditions and compare those conditions to the
original system sizing. The system allows Centrilift experts to
change the well parameters or ESP performance to match the well
data via a user friendly graphical interface.
Centrilift down-hole sensors allow operators
to dramatically improve reliability and system
applications while increasing run life and
reducing pump failure.

WellLIFT™, Centrilift’s newest down-hole
sensor is designed to offer a new genera-
tion of user benefits. The WellLIFT system
measures seven down-hole parameters: Intake pressure, fluid tem-
perature, motor winding temperature, gauge electronics tempera-
ture and vibration on both the X and Y axis, discharge pressure
and discharge temperature. In addition to the down-hole parame-
ters, 17 surface and diagnostic parameters are reported, allowing
operators a higher level of well management than is currently avail-
able with any other comms-on power system. A key advantage of
the WellLIFT sensor is a constant four second intake pressure
recording while additional parameters are continually measured at
24 second cycles.
Interfacing WellLIFT data is relatively simple. WellLIFT data
interfaces with a Modbus unit, which collects the data from the
high voltage choke panel and publishes it to set addresses. A
remote data communications module (RDCM) then polls the
Modbus interface unit and passes it on to the CITIBus™ for
viewing on a Graphic Control System (GSC) display.
Well management costs can be further reduced by remote well
monitoring and control through SCADA systems and via the
Internet. Centrilift down-hole sensors are available as stand-alone
GCS compatible units or as an optional expansion model
for GCS Electrospeed variable speed drives
WellLinkSM is a comprehensive well data distribution, retrieval
and analysis service, offering complete data acquisition, display,
control and analysis of ESP surface and down-hole systems. Well
data can be accessed online with a standard web browser using
the WellLink Service.
espGlobal™ is a low earth orbit communi-
cation device for remote data acquisition.
espGlobal will work over any distance or
terrain anywhere in the world, providing two way communication
via one or multiple devices. This tool offers remote management
of ESP systems.
espVision™ is Centrilift’s web-based mon-
itoring system and can be used with or
without a SCADA system. When no
SCADA system is available, espVision provides an end to end,
remotely hosted SCADA system accessible through a secure web
log-in, offering clients the advantage of SCADA without the sup-
port and maintenance. For wells with an existing SCADA system,
espVision provides real-time data collection and characterization
from the client’s data server via the Internet or private network
connection.
espExpert™, Centrilift’s new real-time data
analysis software, provides a mechanism to
merge well data with AutographPC® to
enhance system analysis and help optimization engineers under-
stand down-hole conditions and compare those conditions to the
original system sizing. The system allows Centrilift experts to
change the well parameters or ESP performance to match the well
data via a user friendly graphical interface.
Centrilift down-hole sensors allow operators
to dramatically improve reliability and system
applications while increasing run life and
reducing pump failure.
System Design and Management Software
AutographPC® with the Simulator is the only ESP design software
that demonstrates how changing conditions impact an ESP
in real and accelerated time. The Simulator adds the time variable
to sizing, illustrating the dynamics of the well in conjunction with
the pump operating point. Critical, dynamic conditions during
start-up and well drawdown are revealed—a unique advantage
of AutographPC.
AutographPC screen with the simulator
The Simulator can model dozens of events to analyze and trou-
bleshoot ESP performance and well conditions. Time can be com-
pressed using the Simulator so well conditions and production
that occurs over days or weeks can be modeled in minutes. For
instance, productivity or water cut changes can be modeled to pre-
dict future pump performance. As a troubleshooting tool, it can be
used to match current operating conditions and identify problems
like tubing leaks, pump wear, high motor temperature and gas-
lock, among others.

The event menu displays numerous ESP and reservoir events.

flow stages and multiple severe service configurations to meet
the demands of any well conditions. Centrilift patented abrasion
resistant pump designs provide cost-effective solutions for a wide
range of abrasive fluid production.
Stage design is the heart of a submersible pump. Centrilift
combines a wealth of engineering experience with cutting-edge
computer design and extensive testing to provide a constantly
evolving line of ESPs. This commitment results in tougher pumps
for longer run life as well as more efficient designs that lower
lifting costs.
For wells where high levels of gas present a problem, the MVP™
pump is the answer. Its unique patented vane design effectively
handles fluids with higher contents of free gas, prevents gas
locking and maximizes lift compared to conventional ESP systems.
MVP pumps can be installed independently; as charge pumps
for a standard ESP pump; or in conjunction with a gas separator
to produce wells with over 90% free gas.
The Best-in-Class Centurion™ pump line features an efficient
