OPERATION CONDITIONS IMPACT OF SUBMERSIBLE PUMP EQUIPMENT UPON ITS WORKING CAPACITY

The matters of life of submersible pump equipment used in petroleum industry to support seam pressure are under consideration. On the basis of the investigations carried out the purpose of which was equipment quality increase including the fulfillment of essential industrial modification of certain pump designs there are revealed reasons which result in working capacity loss of this equipment and there are also offered ways for the solution of the problems accrued. For the first time there is created a comparative classification of ECPK pump equipment of different manufacturers including that of PC ”GMS Livhydromach”, and also on the basis of the statistics of submersible pump equipment operation for oil production from the places of its operation their critical analysis is fulfilled. According to the investigation results there is made a conclusion of that to achieve a guaranteed resource life of 365 days and more for the pumps of the 2ECPK type in consumer holes it is necessary to perform a complex of measures directed to the correct choice of operation conditions and correct constituent operation of units; to the optimization of pump equipment operation including a general hydraulic system and also technical maintenance and repair; to the development of design solutions able to reduce to minimum the impact of negative operation factors.
