More Information
Summary:A packer assembly simplifies the location and relocation of a bottom intake electric submergible pumping system within a wellbore. The packer assembly includes a packer mandrel on which a packer is received and held in place. The packer mandrel includes a housing that forms an internal passage through which wellbore fluids are pumped. The housing also includes an outer surface that forms a recess in which a packer is received and held. The packer may be a conventional type hydraulically set or mechanically set packer. Thus, the packer may be set independently of actuation of the pump at any location within the wellbore casing. When the submergible pumping system must be moved or serviced, the packer assembly and the remainder of the submergible pumping system are moved as a single unit.
