Abstract (en)
There is provided apparatuses, and related systems, for effecting production of oil from a reservoir. A separator (108) is provided and configured to mitigate problems with solid debris accumulation within the wellbore. A system is also provided, including the separator (108), and is disposed within a wellbore. A pump (12) is also provided, and disposed in fluid communication with, and downstream from, the separator (108), for receiving reservoir fluids from which gaseous and solid material have been separated by the separator (108). A sump (206) for collection of solid particulate that is entrained within fluid being discharged from a first outlet port of the separator is provided within a space having a volume of at least 0.1 m3.
