A downhole pumping system for recovering liquids and gas, comprising a first centrifugal pump having internal features for mixing introduced gas into introduced liquids, and a second centrifugal pump having an intake in fluid communication with a discharge of the first centrifugal pump. In one prattled embodiment the internal features for mixing comprise improved impellers having a balance hole that extends through an upper surface of the impeller body into each of a plurality of internal flow chambers, and an additional passage in at least a plurality of the flow chambers. The additional passages cause some fluid to be recirculated in a manner that causes introduced gas to be mixed into the liquids, thereby increasing the pump's gas volume recovery ability.
