A submersible pumping system for use downhole, wherein the system includes a pump, a pump motor, a seal section, a shaft coupling the pump motor to the pump, and bearing assemblies for radially retaining the shaft in place that are offset with respect to an axis of the shaft. The offset bearing assemblies produce side loads in the shaft that reduce shaft vibration during use. The bearing assemblies can be a combination of symmetric and asymmetric assemblies set in an alternating pattern along the length of the shaft. |
