ABSTRACT
Scale is a common well problem, one which tends
to occur in the presence of differential pressure,
temperature changes, and mixing of two
incompatible types of water. In our study, the area
focused on for combatting scale is at ESP. Upon
ESP application, a differential pressure mechanism
is principally needed to drive the fluid from
reservoir to surface, and due to this mechanism,
scale is often formed and deposited on ESP,
especially at intake and pump sections; these are
preventing the fluid flow inside ESP and making the
motor work harder on heavier loads, thus shortening
the ESP run life. This paper will share the
utilization and results from the recycle system
installed at Mustika A-02. Through a recycle
system, scale combat can be conducted during ESP
running. With this system, some of the fluid
produced is injected back into the well after being
combined with scale inhibitor through a flexible
hose connected from the tubing hanger to the
production packer. This injected fluid will protect
the water from the tendency to form scale at ESP.
Observation will focus on ESP amp-chart and
phosphonates residual content record, which
indicate the effectiveness of this recycle system.
After the recycle system was applied on Mustika A02 well, the ESP run life increased from 70 days to
620 days and the amp chart showed a relatively
smooth trend compared to the pre-recycle system
which had been utilized. Based on the amp-chart
trend and Phosphonate Residual Content record, it
may be concluded that the recycle system makes a
contribution in minimizing scale deposition and
plugging inside ESP, thus prolong the ESP run life.

CONCLUSIONS
1. The typical amp-chart revealed smooth ESP
operation after the recycle system was applied,
compared to the amp-chart before the recycle
system was applied.
