SIGNAL BYPASS ROUTED THROUGH A MOTOR OF AN ELECTRICAL SUBMERSIBLE PUMP

摘要

An ESP system includes a motor and which is disposed in a wellbore on an end of an umbilical, where the umbilical includes a power cable and control lines. The control lines carry signals for the control and operation of downhole elements that are below the ESP system. The control lines exit the umbilical at its connection to the ESP system and are routed through the motor. Example paths through the motor for the signal lines include winding slots and outer slots that extend through a stator stack of the motor. Examples of the control lines include electrically conducting members, fiber optic lines, and hydraulic lines. The downhole elements include completion equipment, such as subsurface safety valves, hydraulic set packers, gage packers, and the like.
