Abstract:
1. A system to convey and support an electric submersible pumping system downhole in a wellbore, comprising: an internal conductor; a conductor layer surrounding the internal conductor; a first layer of polymer positioned around the conductor layer; a first layer of armor wire strength members cabled over the first layer of polymer at a first lay angle; a second layer of polymer positioned over the first layer of armor wire strength members; a second layer of armor wire strength members cabled over the second layer of polymer at a second lay angle; and a third layer of polymer surrounding the second layer of armor wire strength members to create a cable with sufficient strength to support the electric submersible pumping system during conveyance downhole to a desired operational location in the wellbore wherein the first layer of polymer is chemically bonded to the second layer of polymer through interstices in the first layer of armor and the second layer of polymer is chemically bonded to the third layer of polymer through interstices in the second layer of armor.
