A pumping system is configured to be deployed in a well that has a vertical portion and a lateral portion. The pumping system includes a pump positioned in the vertical portion, a velocity tube assembly that extends from the vertical portion into the lateral portion and a cyclonic solids separator connected between the pump and the velocity tube assembly. The cyclonic solids separator includes a housing, a discharge manifold extending through the housing, and a plurality of ejection ports that extend through the discharge manifold along arcuate, tangential paths.

Downhole pumping system with cyclonic solids separator

A pumping system is configured to be deployed in a well that has a vertical portion and a lateral portion. The pumping system includes a pump positioned in the vertical portion, a velocity tube assembly that extends from the vertical portion into the lateral portion and a multiphase diverter connected between the pump and the velocity tube assembly. The multiphase diverter includes a housing and a plurality of ejection ports that extend through the housing at a downward angle.
