Brief

PumpDesign is the ESP design tool.

PumpDesign provides the datasheet for the ESP, Motor, Cable and Drive required to achieve the target well flowing rate or bottomhole pressure.

Typical applications

• Sizing of the ESP to pump off the well
• Comparison of the different ESP performance curves (REDA, Centrilift, GE, Borets, Novomet)
• Calculation of the required breaking course power (BHP) number of stages and the frequency
• Calculation of the % of the free gas at the pump intake
• Sizing the Motor required
• Specifying the cable, drive and electrical transformers required

Main Features

• Turn key ESP design workflow
• Tornado chart
• Liquid and mixture IPR plot
• Interactive ESP catalog
• Autoselect option for stages and frequency
• Motors and cables catalog
• Autoselect option for cables and drive
