Zusammenfassung:A method of servicing an electric submersible pump 10 in a well with a positive wellhead pressure includes providing production tubing in the well casing, a coil tubing string 24 within the production tubing having an electric submersible pump10 at a downhole end of the coil tubing string 24, and a pump-receiving housing 30 above the injection port 18 of the wellhead 16. With the injection port 18 sealed and the pump-receiving housing 30 opened, the electric submersible pump 10 may be inserted or removed from the pump-receiving housing 30. With the pump-receiving housing closed 30 and the injection port 18 opened, the electric submersible pump 10 may be moved to or from the production tubing in the well. Also claimed is a combination coil tubing string and an inverted electric submersible pump having a motor section above a pump section.
