CAM-PCP™ Progressing Cavity Pumps Brochure

The two main components of downhole progressing cavity pumps are a rotor and stator. The rotor is machined typically from alloy steel in the form of a single helix, and is coated with chrome or another corrosion-resistant plating. The stator is a steel tube with an elastomer permanently bonded inside. The elastomer is formed in the shape of a double internal helix. When the rotor is placed inside the stator, a series of identical but separate sealed cavities are formed. When the rotor turns, these cavities progress from the intake to the discharge, bringing the fluid to the surface. Cameron’s pumps are designed to fit the specific well environment. From material selection to elastomer development, customers can rely on Cameron’s progressing cavity pumps to meet their production goals, even in some of the most challenging situations. Available pump models range from 4 m3/d (25 bpd) to 200 m3/d (1260 bpd).
