A multi-pump horizontal pumping system has a support structure with a plurality of pumps horizontally connected thereto in parallel and side-by-side relationship. A gear box operatively interconnects an electric motor to each of the pumps with a thrust bearing operatively connected to each pump shaft of each pump between the gear box and each pump. Piping conveys fluids to and from the pumps in parallel or series flow. The multi-pump arrangement provides redundant pumping ability in remote locations where pumps fail more often than the electric motors, and in remote locations where size and weight considerations prevent the use of multiple single-pump horizontal pumping systems.

Cette invention concerne un système de pompage horizontal à pompes multiples qui se compose d'une structure support et d'une série de pompes montées horizontalement sur cette structure, en rangée parallèle. Une boîte d'engrenages est interposée entre un moteur électrique et chacune des pompes qui portent sur leur arbre couplé à ladite boîte d'engrenage un palier de butée. Des tuyauteries établies en parallèle ou en série acheminent des fluides vers les pompes et à partir d'elles. Cette configuration multi-pompes constitue une sécurité par redondance dans les zones éloignées où les pompes se brisent plus souvent que les moteurs électriques et dans les zones éloignées où des considérations d'encombrement et de poids interdisent l'emploi de systèmes multiples de pompage horizontal à une seule pompe.
