Abstract
The applications which will be discussed in this paper are part of the renewal of oil and gas production in the Cook Inlet of Alaska. It is anticipated that at least 50 wells will be converted from gas lift to electric submersible pumps (ESP´s) over the next several years. The renewal has begun, with the first 14 drives having been installed and in operation.
