Evaluating the intake plugging effects on the electrical submersible pump (ESP) operating conditions using nodal analysis

Abstract The intake plugging of an electrical submersible pump (ESP) has presented a formidable challenge to conventional ESP wells. Attention to cumulative solid deposition is essential since it intensifies the intake plugging severity and impedes ESP performance. We present a new approach to evalu...
