Abstract: A system for raising a mast includes a primary cylinder and an actuator. The primary cylinder has a first end coupled to the mast and a second end coupled to a lifting base. The primary cylinder actuates from a retracted position to an extended position to at least partially raise the mast. The actuator actuates from a retracted position to an extended position to at least partially raise the mast, thereby moving the first end of the primary cylinder or the second end of the primary cylinder toward a pivot point between the mast and the lifting base.

Abstract: An electric submersible pump system can include a shaft; a power cable connector; an electric motor configured to receive power via the power cable connector for rotatably driving the shaft; a pump operatively coupled to the shaft; a power unit for generating power via rotation of the shaft; a remote unit that includes at least one sensor for sensing information, wireless transmission circuitry for wireless transmission of sensed information and a power interface to receive power generated by the power unit; and a base unit that includes wireless reception circuitry for receipt of wireless transmission of sensed information from the remote unit and wired transmission circuitry operatively coupled to the power cable connector. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method can include providing a motor that includes a housing, axially aligned stationary electromagnets disposed in the housing, an aperture defined by the axially aligned stationary electromagnets, movable axially aligned permanent magnets disposed in the aperture and a connector shaft connected at an end of the movable axially aligned permanent magnets; disposing the motor and a rod pump in a well; controlling operation of the motor to linearly reciprocate the axially aligned movable permanent magnets and the connector shaft; pumping fluid from the well via the rod pump responsive to the linear reciprocation of the axially aligned movable permanent magnets and the connector shaft; and substantially blocking the pumped fluid from flowing through the aperture defined by the axially aligned stationary electromagnets of the motor. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system and methodology facilitate connection between components of an electric submersible pumping system. The technique utilizes at least one connector designed to connect a first component to a second component of an electric submersible pumping system. The connector is designed as a flangeless connector which secures engagement of the two components without relative rotation between the first component and the second component. Additional flangeless connectors may be positioned between other pairs of components to provide the enhanced connection throughout the electric submersible pumping system.
