Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to the field of submersible pumping systems, and more particularly, but not by way of limitation, to a system in which the thrust chamber is isolated from other chambers in the seal section and also to a system in which different lubricants are used in the motor and seal section portions of the pumping system.
  • Submersible pumping systems are often deployed into wells to recover petroleum fluids from subterranean reservoirs.
  • the submersible pumping system includes a number of components, including one or more fluid filled electric motors coupled to one or more high performance pumps located above the motor. When energized, the motor provides torque to the pump, which pushes wellbore fluids to the surface through production tubing.
  • Each of the components in a submersible pumping system must be engineered to withstand the inhospitable downhole environment.
  • seal sections protect the electric motors and are typically positioned between the motor and the pump. In this position, the seal section provides several functions, including transmitting torque between the motor and pump, restricting the flow of wellbore fluids into the motor, protecting the motor from axial thrust imparted by the pump, and accommodating the expansion and contraction of motor lubricant as the motor moves through thermal cycles during operation.
  • Prior art seal sections typically include a "clean side” in fluid communication with the electric motor and a "contaminated side” in fluid communication with the wellbore. Bellows or bags have been used to separate the clean side of the seal section from the contaminated side. Although generally effective, prior art designs allow fluid communication between the motor and the seal section through the thrust chamber and rely on the communication of fluid between the motor and the seal section. Because the lubricant is common to both the motor and the seal section, the same fluid must be used. It is to this and other restrictions in the prior art that the preferred embodiments are directed.
  • the present invention includes an electric submersible pumping system that is configured to pump fluids from a wellbore.
  • the electric submersible pumping system includes a motor that is filled with a motor lubricant, a pump driven by the motor, a thrust chamber connected between the motor and the pump and a seal section.
  • the thrust chamber is filled with a thrust chamber lubricant and the seal section and motor are in fluid isolation from the thrust chamber.
  • the preferred embodiments include an electric submersible pumping system that includes a motor that is filled with a first lubricant, a pump driven by the motor, an upper seal section connected to the pump and a thrust chamber connected between the motor and the upper seal section.
  • the thrust chamber is filled with a second lubricant that is different than the first lubricant.
  • the electric submersible pumping system preferably includes a motor that is filled with motor lubricant.
  • the electric submersible pumping system further includes a pump driven by the motor and a lower seal section connected to a lower side of the motor. The lower seal section is in fluid communication with the motor.
  • the electric submersible pumping system also includes a thrust chamber connected between the motor and the pump. The thrust chamber is filled with thrust chamber lubricant and the thrust chamber is in fluid isolation from the motor. The isolation of the thrust chamber from the motor prevents mixing of the thrust chamber lubricant and motor lubricant.
  • FIG. 1 depicts a submersible pumping system constructed in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 provides a cross-sectional view of the motor, thrust chamber, and upper seal section constructed in accordance with a presently preferred embodiment.
  • FIG. 3 depicts a submersible pumping system constructed in accordance with an alternate preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 4 provides a cross-sectional view of the thrust chamber, motor and lower seal section constructed in accordance with a presently preferred embodiment.
