Abstract: Systems and methods for increasing hydrocarbon production using an electrical submersible pump are described. The methods typically include, for example, configuring an electrical submersible pump comprising a gas separator to induce a gas lift effect in a well comprising a tubing within a casing. Hydrocarbon production from the well is therefore increased using the electrical submersible pump.

Abstract: A thrust box with improved cooling comprises a case having an interior, a first passageway and an opposing second passageway. A shaft passes through the case and the first and second passageway. A thrust runner is secured to the shaft and a pump ring is attached to the thrust runner. Advantageously, the pump ring facilitates oil rate circulation and cooling among other benefits.

Abstract: An electric submersible pump assembly with integral heat exchanger, high speed gas separator, high-speed self-aligning bearings, and dual bearing thrust chamber is described. The described gas separator may be used for operating an electric submersible pump at high speeds as well as over a wide range of speeds and flowrates without replacing downhole equipment.

Abstract: An electric submersible pump assembly with upthrust protection is described. The described pump assembly, modules, and components may be used for operating an electric submersible pump at high speeds as well as over a wide range of speeds and flowrates without replacing downhole equipment. The described pump assembly may be shorter than comparable pump assemblies and may be assembled offsite, thereby leading to faster and easier installation with less down time. By operating over a wide range of speeds, the disclosed pump assembly allows the operator to reduce overall inventory, reduce down time for the well, and avoid other complications associated with replacing a pump assembly or other downhole components.

Abstract: The present invention relates to electric submersible pumps that have two or more permanent magnet motors and more specifically to such systems wherein permanent magnet motors are aligned using phase and pole alignment marks.

Abstract: Systems and methods for authentication may include balancing an unbalanced power cable using a transformer that has one or more phases by selecting a voltage on a tap handle; disposing a first bushing on one or more phases at a different voltage than the selected voltage; and balancing the unbalanced power cable based on the disposition of the first bushing on the one or more phases at the different voltage.
