Multiple reservoirs can be produced independently in the same well bore. In cases where the upper zone and the lower zone require an ESP, a dual zone completion can be used with a single production tubing string by comingling the discharge of each ESP.

Compared to the seal bore packer, this configuration has no means of zonal isolation during workover, and requires sufficient distance between zones for the ESP packer and ESP.

Pump Support For Y-Tool Applications

Advantages

  • Increased production by producing two zones independently with dissimilar productivity
  • Only need to drill one well to maximise production from both zones

Disadvantages

  • No zone isolation during workovers
  • ESP cable potentially needs protection past upper perforations
  • Requires enough distance between zones for ESP packer and ESP
