Baker Hughes General Electric
Baker Hughes is a General Electric company that manufactures submersible pump systems for the oil and gas industry. While Nickerson Company does not supply Baker Hughes products to the oil and gas market, we do provide Baker Hughes GE pumps to all other markets where water needs to be pumped from deep well sources beyond the capabilities of conventional water well pumping equipment.
Baker Hughes pumps are usually a more highly-engineered product than a typical water well pump and have multiple available options and features that are applicable to deep setting depths and corrosive water. Baker Hughes GE also offers VFD drive systems, armored power cables, and transformers to complete these specialized equipment packages.
Baker Hughes Deep Well Pump Installation & Repair
Depending on the size and capacity of the required pump, most conventional water well pumps will not work efficiently beyond a 1,500-foot setting depth. Baker Hughes’ submersible pumps are routinely set at depths in excess of 1,000 feet and Nickerson has successfully supplied and set oil field-style submersible pumps in up to 3,000-foot setting depths at 1,500 HP and 110,000-pound installed string weights.
When these deep well pump systems are specified, it is vitally important that the proper drop pipe provided is suitable for the application, as conventional water well pipe generally cannot be used beyond about a 1,000-foot setting depth. Nickerson can provide API specification oil field drop pipe that is certified safe for the required setting depth.
The installation of these deep-set pumps is also much more technical than conventional water well equipment and requires detailed assembly and servicing in the field prior to installation. The installation of Baker Hughes pumps also requires specialized pipe handling equipment, including hydraulic power tongs and weight-rated pipe slips and elevators. Nickerson has the vital deep well pump field service expertise and equipment required to install, inspect, repair, and replace Baker Hughes’ oil field-style submersible pumps.
