well in this manner well fluids may be lifted from the well from depths greater than the maximum pumping lift of the progressive cavity pump pcp located in the production zone at the bottom of the well a person skilled in the art may understand that the present invention may be modified to utilize alternative pump types in the positions of espcp 13 and rdpcp 33 the disclosed embodiments contemplate and include such modifications accordingly the disclosed embodiments provide numerous advantages for example the disclosed embodiments provide a pumping system that allows for use of pcp pumps at depths greater than the maximum pumping head of modern pcp pumps this is advantageous because the pcp pumps are more forgiving and can produce fluids with suspended solid matter with less wear and tear to the pump in turn this allows for longer life of the pcp and consequently longer and lower cost production periods from the well it is understood that the present invention may take many forms and embodiments accordingly several variations may be made in the foregoing without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention having thus described the present invention by reference to certain of its preferred embodiments it is noted that the embodiments disclosed are illustrative rather than limiting in nature and that a wide range of variations.
