Producing significant volumes of abrasive sand, iron sulfate and other solids with electric submersible pumps (ESP) presents challenges, which can compromise system run life. In standard constructions, excessive abrasives can wear pumps quickly, reduce performance, and cause premature failures. To provide advanced wear protection without sacrificing pump efficiency, Valiant Artificial Lift Solutions offers abrasion-resistant modular…
Just as one Oklahoma operator was at their wit’s end due to repeated equipment failures, Valiant helped them achieve reliable ESP run life on a well previously believed to be too problematic to produce. LOCATION: Wilcox Formation, Pawnee, Oklahoma APPLICATION: High Sand Production, Abrasive Well Conditions Causing Broken Shaft Failures In the span of one…
In the Permian Basin, one operator was experiencing frequent alarms and daily shutdowns on ESP wells due to elevated motor temperatures and undercurrent. By combining “graybeard” field experience with proprietary gas lock programming and Variable Speed Drive (VSD) controls, Valiant was able to help the operator stop the interruptions and increase system uptime. An operator…
After experiencing sub-optimal production from a gas-lift well, a Mid-Con operator contacted Valiant to help boost production. By replacing the gas-lift system with an abrasion-resistant ESP, Valiant was able to provide immediate results and significantly increase oil recovery from the well. Excessive sand and solids in the production fluid required installation of ultra-durable 1,250 barrel-per-day…
