Coordinated ESP and HPump waterflood system doubles water injection and saves $1.5 million USD in CAPEX Challenges • Increased production from 5,000 to 12,000 BWPD • Doubled production without adding additional wells Results • Increased waterflood injection rate 140%, from 5,000 to 12,000 BWPD • Saved $1.5 million USD in capital expenditures by eliminating the need for a second water source well • Saved $150,000 USD in annual maintenance costs for second water source well A new waterflood project in Jones County, Mississippi, used an electrical submersible pumping (ESP) system from Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE), to directly inject water from a source well into an injection well at a rate of 5,000 BWPD. In order to increase field production, the customer needed an
