Title:
MULTIPLE ELECTRIC SUBMERSIBLE PUMP SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/031682
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An electric submersible pump ("ESP") module is disclosed for producing fluids from subsea wells. The ESP module includes at least two ESPs positioned side by side and connected in parallel to discharge into a common manifold. The ESPs and manifold can be enclosed in a housing and deployed to a subsea location. At the subsea location, the ESP module can be operationally connected to an electric source, the production fluid, and to an export conduit. The production fluid from the well(s) is drawn from within the housing into one or more of the at least two ESPs which energize and discharge the production fluid into the manifold and through the export conduit to a collection point. Each of the ESPs may be selectively operated to provide the desired flow rate and/or lifting head.
