The total in-situ fluid volume the ESP pump must handle is the sum of the
liquid and gas rates, so we can calculate the total Qliquid
Qliq=Ql+ Qing(new)
Qliq=2,088+182
Qliq=2,270 bpd
The Turpin parameter Φ can be calculated by the following calculation
2000 x 182

Qing= ( 12,000
5.61 )
x ( 1−0.36 ) x (1−0.60)
Qing=547 bpd
The total in-situ fluid volume the ESP pump must handle is the sum of the
liquid and gas rates, so we can calculate the total Qliquid
Qliq=Ql+ Qing(new)
Qliq=2,561+547
Qliq=3,108 bpd
The Turpin parameter Φ can be determined by the following calculation
2,000 x 547
Φ=
3 x 330 x 3,108
Φ=0.36<1

In order to find the pump’s required discharge pressure, Pd, vertical multi-
from the wellhead to the pump setting depth. The gas/liquid ratio to be used
( 5.61 x 182 ) Rs x Qg
GLR= {[ Bg ][ +
Ql minimum desired ]}
( 5.61 x 182 ) 116 x 1,000
GLR= {[ 0.023 ][ +
2,000 ]}
GLR=80 scf /STB
The required pump discharge can be determined by the following calculation
Pd=2,400 psi
The required TDH is now found from the pressure increase required and the
liquid’s density, so here is the calculation
Pd−PIP
TDH =144 x
⍴1
2,400−660
TDH =144 x
58.5
TDH =4,283 ft
In order to find the pump’s required discharge pressure, Pd, vertical multi-
phase pressure drop calculations must be performed in the tubing string from
the wellhead to the pump setting depth. The gas/liquid ratio to be used can be
( 5.61 x 182 ) Rs x Qg
GLR= {[ Bg ][ +
Ql minimum desired ]}

GLR=46 scf /STB
Pd=2600 psi
The required TDH is now found from the pressure increase required and the
liquid’s density, so here is the calculation

*From GN3200 Catalog this pump willl require 2 EA stages. 1 EA 40
stages – 6.3 ft long and 1 EA 100 stages 14.7 ft long. This pump will be
made up in tandem.
Selecting Protector
With the well conditions, the best protector is BPBSL 540 Series-2550
NTB-1HP.
Selecting VGSA
It requires 540 Series, VGSA S20-90, 6HP
Selecting AGH
It requires 540 Series, AGH G20-40, 37.5HP
Motor Selection
Before choose the motor we need to calculate total HP that will needed for the
motor. Total HP is the sum from Pump HP, VGSA HP, AGH HP, and Protector HP
Total HP=242.5 HP
To avoid the worst condition, there is a safety factor for the motor, as rule of
thumb it is devided by 80%.
Total HP
Required motor HP=
80 %
242.5
Required motor HP=
80 %
From Required Motor HP Calculation we can choose the motor. So, from
the catalog we choose 540 Series, 1 EA 63 HP-855 V-46A, 1 EA 250 HP-
1237V-127.1A
