Abstract
An oil well pumping apparatus for pumping oil from a well to a wellhead provides a tool body that is sized and shaped to be lowered into the production tubing string of the oil well. A working fluid is provided that can be pumped into the production tubing. A flow channel into the well bore enables the working fluid to be circulated from the prime mover via the production tubing to the tool body at a location in the well and then back to the wellhead area. A pumping mechanism is provided on the tool body, the pumping mechanism includes upper and lower impeller devices. The upper impeller device is driven by the working fluid. The lower impeller device is rotated by the upper impeller device. Each upper and lower impeller devices are connected with a shaft. A specially configured flow diverter directs the working fluid to an impeller blade in between the top and bottom of an upper impeller device.
