Abstract :
Pumping crude oil from wells on deep ocean waters is a challenge that the oil industry is facing. To achieve this goal, a better assessment of the electrical and mechanical parts involved in the process is needed. This paper analyses the behaviour of a special type of induction motor, the ESP (electrical submersible pump) motor, when supplied by an inverter 3 km away. This configuration is widely used for oil pumping processes. Digital simulation is carried out under EMTP. To validate the system model, the simulation results were compared against experimental ones
