<p>A reciprocating pump includes an open-bottomed barrel adapted for attaching to the lower end of a production tubing string; a seating assembly having a cylindrical bore and adapted for mounting to a seating nipple at the upper end of the barrel; and a plunger assembly adapted for attaching to the lower end of a sucker rod string. The plunger assembly includes concentric upper and lower plunger sections interconnected by a double-valve, ported valve cage. The plungers are sized for sealing reciprocating engagement within, respectively, the bore of the seating assembly and the bore of the pump barrel. The lower plunger and the ported valve cage define a production chamber within the pump barrel. The upper plunger has ports allowing fluid flow from the tubing into the production chamber. Optionally, the upper plunger and the barrel may be provided with flush ports facilitating flushing of the pump to eliminate vapor lock.</p> |
