Improving the Energy Efficiency of An Electric Submersible Pump Installation Using an Integrated Logistics Support Approach

Abstract

Electricity consumption during oil production is a significant cost for industry enterprises. One of state policy’s most important tasks in extracting minerals is increasing energy efficiency and the intellectualization of control and management systems. The solution to these tasks can be achieved through competent planning of the technological process and the organization of information support at all stages. The paper presents the development of a method for power consumption, the optimization of an electric submersible pump installation. The technological restrictions are also identified. The developed methodology was tested; according to the results of the calculations, it was found that the reduction in specific power consumption can reach 12.68%. An assessment of the economic feasibility of the changing parameters of the electrical equipment has been carried out. Within the framework of the integrated logistic support approach, a program was developed for the selection of rational parameters of equipment in order to increase the energy efficiency of the installation of electric submersible pumps. The research results can be applied to oil-extracting industry enterprises in the framework of energy efficiency improvement programs.
