Zusammenfassung:A wellbore completion assembly for anchoring a progressive cavity pump in a wellbore having a production tubing. The wellbore completion assembly includes a progressive cavity pump, an anchor, and an electrical submersible pump motor. The progressive cavity pump is configured to be disposed in a wellbore. The anchor is coupled to a downhole end of the progressive cavity pump to couple the progressive cavity pump to a production tubing positioned in the wellbore. The anchor has a body, a mechanical lock receiving assembly, and a seal. The body is coupled to the progressive cavity pump. The mechanical lock receiving assembly is positioned on a first external surface of the body to couple the body to the production tubing. The seal is positioned about the body to engage the production tubing. The electrical submersible pump motor is mechanically coupled to the progressive cavity pump by a drive shaft.
