Abstract
A deployment system as a rig less docking station with an inline male wet mate-able connectors and power cable and a motor connector with inline female wet mate-able connectors coupled to an electric submersible pump (ESP), the docking station is at the bottom of a string of production tubing and remains in the well for the life of the system while the motor connector is mated to an ESP and lowered into the well by wireline or other suitable deployment method. The rig less deployment system has a lower initial cost, larger through-bore, improved debris tolerance, and the ability for pump-assisted installation and retrieval techniques. Both the moveable female and the static male connector are pressure balanced for temperature and volume variation and the male connector utilizes a heavy dielectric fluid in a reverse labyrinth design to isolate borehole fluid from the electrical connection.
