CHALLENGE Improve North Sea field economics by increasing the mean time between failures (MTBF) for electric submersible pumps (ESPs). SOLUTION ¦ Monitor and optimize well and ESP performance using the Lift IQ* production life cycle management service. ¦ Design and deploy fit-for-purpose REDA* Maximus* ESP systems in most wells and MaxFORTE* high-reliability ESP systems in new, highly productive wells. RESULTS ¦ Improved MTBF by nearly 200%, from 794 to 2,335 days, significantly reducing total cost of ownership of the ESPs. ¦ Reduced frequency of critical events by 64%. Sand and temperature effects reduce ESP run life ESPs from various providers have been deployed in about 50 wells in a North Sea field since the early 1980s. As the field matured, water cut, scale depositio
