An electric submersible pumping system having a downhole gauge section. The electric submersible pumping system comprises a submersible motor powered by a submersible pump. The submersible pump may be located below the submersible motor when in operation, while the downhole gauge section is disposed above the submersible motor. A power cable is coupled to the submersible motor through the downhole gauge section.

Technique for sensing flow related parameters when using an electric submersible pumping system to produce a desired fluid

A system for splicing coiled tubing used in deploying downhole equipment and having an internal power cable. The system includes first and second segments of coiled tubing each having power cable disposed therein. Additionally, mounting fixtures are attached to the ends of the coiled tubing segments that are to be joined. The system further includes a movable canister that may be slid over the spliced segments of power cable and selectively engaged with the mounting fixtures. The canister provides structural integrity to the overall deployment tubing while protecting the internal power cable splice.

Splice system for use in splicing coiled tubing having internal power cable

A packer is disposed within a wellbore casing. The packer defines a first and a second zone of the wellbore. A submersible pumping system is used to displace liquid from the first zone of the wellbore via a first fluid flow path. A cable is used for supplying power to the submersible pumping system. The cable extends through tubing that extends from a surface location. A second fluid flow path extends from the first zone of the wellbore to a surface location. A portion of the second fluid flow path extends through the tubing.

Well completion method and apparatus with cable inside a tubing and gas venting through the tubing

A connector for use in a deployment system able to deploy and power a device, such as an electric submergible pumping system, in a well. The connector includes pluggable ends that permit connection adjacent segments, each having an outer section of tubing and an internal power cable. Each connector includes a tubing connector portion and a power cable connector portion that permit pluggable connection of sequential tubing segments when deploying a device or system downhole.
