Application, Control, And Set-Up Of Variable Frequency Drives For Electric Submersible Pumping Applications In The Salt Creek Field Unit

This paper will describe the sizing techniques for field applications using variable frequency (speed) drives (VFDs or VSDs) with electric submersible pumps (ESPs). The field installations will be described along with reservoir and production information. Then the controls available with the VSD's and their uses will be discussed. Finally the various control and transformer settings for different applications will be presented.
