Abstract
A downhole magnetic pump system includes a tube positioned within a wellbore at least partially filled with a fluid. A conductive wire coil is helically wrapped around the tube and is configured to generate a magnetic field in response to an electrical current passing through the coil. A standing valve assembly including a one-way valve and a travelling valve assembly also including a one-way valve are both positioned in the tube, with the travelling valve assembly positioned uphole of the standing valve assembly. The traveling valve is configured to repetitively cycle between a first position uphole of the standing valve assembly and a second position uphole of the first position in response to the electrical current repetitively switching between a first state to a second state. In this way, a portion of the fluid is displaced in an uphole direction.
