Abstract

An electric submersible pumping system includes a motor comprising an inner hollow core rotor and an outer stator, a gearbox comprising a hollow core input shaft connected to the motor rotor, and a hollow core output shaft, and a pump driven by the gearbox output shaft, the pump having an intake, and wherein the pump output is directed through the hollow core output shaft and into the hollow core motor rotor. The motor section is disposed above the gearbox and pump.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 991,497 filed on Nov. 30, 2007 entitled “Bottom Hole Hollow Core Electric Submersible Pumping System”, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to the bottom hole components of an electric submersible pumping (ESP) system, and in particular, an ESP system having a hollow core motor disposed above the pump.BACKGROUND[0003]Many systems are known for producing fluids by artificial lift from oil and gas wells, including many forms of downhole pumps which are rotated by a surface motor and a rod string. Pumps driven by downhole electric motors are known as electric submersible pumps. The pumps themselves may be centrifugal pumps or positive displacement pump, such as a progressive cavity pump.[0004]In a conventional electric submersible pump system, shown in prior art FIG. 1, a motor is...
