A surface pumping system has a motor and a pump driven by the motor. The pump has a discharge on a first end of the pump, a suction end on a second end of the pump, and a plurality of stages between the suction end and the discharge. Each of the plurality of stages includes an impeller and a diffuser that encases the impeller. Each diffuser is an independent pressure vessel. In some embodiments, the diffuser and impeller in each stage are large and configured for use in low net positive suction head (NPSH) applications.

A gas mitigation system for use in connection with a subsurface pump includes a shroud hanger that has one or more orifices that permit the passage of fluids through the shroud hanger. A canister connected to the shroud hanger has an open upper end. An intake tube connected to the tubing string extends into the canister. The canister is sized and configured to cause fluids passing around the outside of the canister to accelerate, thereby encouraging the separation of gas and liquid components. The open shroud hanger and open upper end of the canister allow heavier liquid components to fall into the canister, where the liquid-enriched fluid can be drawn into the subsurface pump.

A well pump assembly has a motor operatively connected to a welt pump that has an intake. The welt pump assembly has a capillary tube that extends alongside the tubing and has an outlet at the well pump assembly. A chemical injection pump is connected lo an upper end of the capillary tube adjacent a wellhead of the well. A logic system detects well fluid falling back downward in the tubing and out the intake into the well, and in response turns on the chemical injection pump, which pumps a chemical down the capillary tube into the well adjacent or within the well pump assembly. Once upward flow of well fluid in the tubing has been established, the chemical injection pump may be turned off.

A lower separator located below a submersible well pump intake has a labyrinth flow path, causing a first well fluid separation of lighter components from heavier components as well fluid flowing into the lower separator turns downward to flow toward a lower separator heavier component port. A bypass riser has a bypass riser inlet below the pump intake and a bypass riser outlet above the pump intake. A lighter component conduit communicates the bypass riser inlet with lighter components of the first well fluid separation, causing a second well fluid separation at the riser outlet as a heavier portion of the lighter components flowing up the riser turn to flow downward to the pump intake. A heavier component conduit bypasses the bypass riser inlet and delivers the heavier components of the first well fluid separation to the pump intake.
