Abstract
A seal includes an outer housing and a seal bag internal to the outer housing. The outer housing can be positioned between a pump and an electric motor of an electric submersible pump. The seal bag can include an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer can be made from a first material to retain a structure of the outer layer in a swellable state in a wellbore. The inner layer can be made from a second material that is swellable in the wellbore in response to contact with a polar substance to seal a tear in the outer layer.
