The durability and service life of a Weatherford ESP system relies heavily on the quality of each system component. From robust, dependable downhole motors to an extensive range of intakes, gas separators and multistage centrifugal pumps and surface components, our ESP systems can be customized and assembled for a variety of applications for long-term efficiency and extended service life.There are many applications where an ESP will provide the most efficient cost-per-barrel lifting method. The following applications are typical areas where Weatherford ESP technology would provide best-in-class service:

• High volume lift requirements (100 – 30,000 BPD)
• Deep, hot and/or deviated wells
• Waterfloods or high water-cut wells
• Limited offshore surface footprint

VSD/Monitoring Applications

• Depleting reservoir
• Uncertain reservoir characteristics
• Well testing operations
• Well management

While ESPs are often considered unsuitable for sandy, gassy or abrasive applications, Weatherford can supply suitable coatings, stage geometry and gas handling equipment to ensure a long run life in these potentially hazardous conditions.

In addition, Weatherford’s sand control technologies can provide a lower completion that will provide the best sand protection available in today’s market.

Alternative Applications

• Coalbed Methane dewatering
• Horizontal Pumping Systems

Our comprehensive portfolio also includes enhanced technologies such as our Surface Horizontal Pumping Units featuring a direct-drive, multistage centrifugal design ideally suited for most high-pressure, high-volume and environmentally sensitive applications and our proprietary ESP-CBM Pump ^® with unique design features for enhanced coalbed methane efficiencies and performance. Additionally, our sensors and monitoring systems allow for well production control with complete monitoring capabilities in conjunction with any existing communication system.

So, whether the situation calls for a specific product or a complete well analysis and system design, Weatherford has the right solution for all your needs.
