2 Enabling flexi-bility of system configuration Improved modular protectorwith factory-shimmed design Self-lubricating polymer-linedradial bearing for high-reliability operation, even inpoor-lubrication conditions Motors with gauge-readybases (GRB) for real-timemonitoring of up to 16 ESP operating parameters Compatibility with allstandard REDA* pumps,gas separators, and gashandlers and Phoenix*downhole gaugesThe innovative REDA Maximus ESP systemdesign enables operators to maximize pumpreliability and performance through theuse of integrated components with fewer,simpler mechanical connections. Theadvanced Maximus system offerings include bolt-on motor designs bolt-on modular protectors ProMotor integral motor, protector,and sensor plug-and-play design of REDAM aximus motors and protectors eliminatesthe need for sensitive and weather-depend-ent critical assembly operations requiredduring conventional ESP operations such as oil servicingof motors and protectors and protectorshimming are now performed in thecontrolled environment of Schlumbergermanufacturing plants and service connection of the tape-in potheadhas been components arrive at thewellsite ready for easy installation.

3 TheMaximus ProMotor systems also featureoptional Phoenix downhole gauges for real-time monitoring of ESP and reservoirperformance. Maximus motors offer flexibility, because they are availablewith a gauge-ready base (GRB) that allowsdirect connection of any downhole Phoenixgauge for real-time monitoring of ESP and reservoir manufacturing and service personnel prepare the Maximus * motor in a controlled run lifeREDA Maximus ESP systems have beenengineered to reduce expensive early fail-ures and to extend overall system run the wellsite, the installation processhas been simplified through technologyadvances, significantly reducing the timetaken to install a conventional ESP sys-tem and virtually eliminating short-runfailures caused byhuman error duringequipment new MaxLok pothead design elimi-nates the taping of electrical connectionsto reduce the time taken to make the con-nection and maintain high performanceand protectors and motors incor-porate the new MaxJoint ESP componentconnection technology.

4 Oil-filled compo-nents that must be connected together atthe wellsite use MaxJoint technology topreserve the factory filling and avoid trap-ping air while making up the field connec-tions. This eliminates the risk of improperfilling under difficult field conditions andcontributes to equipment longevity,because there is minimum or no exposureof the dielectric oil to sources of contami-nation at the of the life-limiting factors in ESPmotors and protectors is wear of radialbearings due to degradation of the motoroil over time. All radial bearings inMaximus systems feature hardened shaftsleeves running in self-lubricating, poly-mer-lined bushings with high load andtemperature capacity under diminishedoil lubricity.

5 The protector head bearing ismost vulnerable because of vibration fromthe pump intake and abrasives in the wellfluid. Wear and vibration of this bearing isa common cause of well fluid leaking pastthe shaft seal. The Maximus protectorhead features the same abrasion-resistant-zirconia bearing system that has beensuccessfully used in REDA pumps forabrasive applications for more than15 efficiencyOperational and equipment problems,such as short runs ( , failures withinthe first 90 days of operation) due toinstallation problems require substantialremedial effort and nonproductive timewith a severe impact on field equipment drastically reducesthe exposure to potential environmentalproblems and human errors, allowing youto focus on other operational operations are also greatly sim-plified, resulting in a substantial reductionin rig time expense.

6 The installationtime can be reduced significantly whencompared to previous conventional ESPtechnology, because Maximus technologyeliminates the need for pothead tapingand because oil filling happens at thefactory, not on flexibilityThe unique flexibility of the Maximussystems enables oilfield operators toconfigure their ESP systems as components are compatiblewith other standard REDA ESP compo-nents, including pumps, gas handlingdevices, and gas motors combine the industry-leading reliability of REDA Dominator*motors with the innovative MaxJointconnection technology. Factory-filledsingle and tandem motors are availableto cover most ESP applications.

7 AllMaximus motors are built with the newMaxLok motors are available withGRB, which enables full compatibilitywith any type of Phoenix gauge. The baseallows connection of the downhole gaugein the shop or in the field without needfor refilling the protectors are built with thesame flexibility as the traditional REDA modular protectors, but incorporate newtechnology features to increase reliabilityeven further. Maximus protectors use theMaxJoint technology for tandem combina-tions for additional sealing capabilities. The ProMotor multifunctional com-ponent combines the motor, protector,and Phoenix gauge into one using the ProMotor system, operatorseliminate the motor-protector-gaugeassembly operations at the wellsite, fur-ther reducing installation time and ProMotor unit is factory-filled andfactory-shimmed.
