«Who was I.M. Gubkin»

Known as the Father of Soviet Oil Geology, I.M. Gubkin was born in 1871 in the Village of Pozdnyakovo in what is now Nizhegorodsky region. After graduating from the St. Petersburg Mining Institute, Gubkin traveled in 1917 to the United States to study the country’s oil industry. He was later appointed as the head of the Soviet Oil Industry Council before becoming the Dean of the Moscow Mining Academy in 1922. Then, he became the Dean of the new Moscow Institute of Oil, which grew out of the Petroleum Engineering faculty when the Moscow Mining Academy was reorganized into six different higher education institutions in 1930. The new Moscow Institute of Oil was named in honor of its first director- a unique case in Russia, a country where universities are seldom dedicated to a person still living.

More than 50 percent of crude oil is produced with the utilization of electrical submersible pumping units. Their electric motors are filled with oil of high dielectric behavior, which not only lubricates the bearings, but also cools the motors, preventing their overheating.

The temperature range of this oil can be from minus 40 C to plus 250 C, and its volume changes respectively. Unless appropriate measures on compensation of oil volume change are taken, pressure created by oil heating will be able to destroy the electric motor or its components, for example, output shaft axial face seals.

To equalize pressure in the oil and external environment, the electric motor is equipped with a section having a special protector-module containing a certain amount of oil.

In practice, one or more elastic membranes are used for pressure equalization in most protectors, as so-called labyrinth systems which also find application have a number of serious limitations.

Elastic membranes have two important functions:

1. To equalize pressure in the motor oil and external medium of the well;

2. To prevent contamination of motor oil by liquids, gasses and their components contained in the formation.

At present, there are two concepts of elastic membranes: membranes made of elastomeric materials for moderate operating conditions (up to 215 C) and metal bellows for severe environment (over 215 C, high gas-oil ration).

Demerits of elastomeric membranes and elastomeric bellows of axial face seals include:

a) Low thermal conductivity;

b) Permeability to gasses and other harmful substances, for example hydrogen sulfide which contaminated oil;

c) Inevitable ageing, sensitivity to the environmental aggressively which result in deterioration of elastic properties and destruction of membranes caused by dynamic volume change.

Metal bellows of protectors are also characterized by inefficient heat transfer; their reduced elasticity increases the seal section size; external pressure pulsation results in increased load on the bellow of the axial face seal.

Typical demerit of elastic membranes or bellows of the seal section is that they are not washed by the external cooling medium; they create natural thermal barriers, which aggravates the problem of the motor calorific intensity reduction.

In this connection development of a non-membrane design of seal sections remains urgent. They can be used, for example, with piston-type compensators of volume change. Obvious advantages of this concept include:

- better cooling of the motor oil;

- reliable protection of the motor oil from gasses and other contaminating substances coming from the formation;

- possibility to increase the motor oil temperature to over 300 C;

- reduction of overall dimensions of the seal section protector, which makes it possible to put the submersible electric motor in the same case with the seal section (monoblock).

With the above indicated challenging prospects, attempts to apply seal section protectors with floating pistons (including gas-filled battery volumes) have been made until the present time. However, attractive simplicity of the concept and apparently proved design of the piston seals prevented the designers from paying proper attention to protection of the cavity, in which pistons are moving, from scale formation and mud contamination. At best, anti-corrosion measures were provided for.
