To provide a horizontal type electric compressor in which there is no fear of lubricant staying at the bottom of a casing even when a flow velocity of a refrigerant is reduced, whereby no shortage of lubricant is incurred in a compressor section. As seen from the suction chamber side, there are formed, as introduce passages, grooves extending from suction openings of the front side block of the compressor section to the peripheral surface in the lowermost portion of the front side block. Then, the introduce passages and the suction openings are covered with a partition wall for fixation of the front side block. An opening hole is provided in the lower portion of the partition wall to establish communication between the introduce passages and the suction chamber. Since the opening hole is situated at the bottom portion of the suction chamber, any lubricant threatening to gather at the bottom portion of the suction chamber due to a reduction in the flow velocity of the sucked refrigerant, etc. is sucked into the introduce passages together with the refrigerant and is guided to the suction openings.
