Abstract
A device to be connected to the lower end of a tubing string for removing sand or other debris from oil producing formations below a surface, the device comprising a combination of a thrust and rotational bearing assembly, a rotationally driven downhole pump comprising a rotor and a stator to provide hydraulic energy to lift fluid to the surface, a transfer chamber secured to the pump providing fluid communication between the pump and the tubing string to direct fluid from the pump to enter the string, a nose section secured to the pump rotor and constructed so that sand is mixed with wellbore fluid, a guide to take the mixture to the pump and an anti-rotation device secured to the pump constructed so as to prevent rotation of the pump stator while allowing axial movement of the pump.
