ABSTRACT:
A method of pumping upper production fluid from an upper level of an underground pool of production fluid and pumping lower production fluid having a higher concentration of sand from a lower level during a single pump cycle comprises providing a dual action reciprocating piston pump comprising a pump barrel and a reciprocating piston dividing the pump barrel into a lower and upper chambers. On a downstroke upper production fluid is drawn from the upper level into the upper chamber through an upper intake, and lower production fluid present in the lower chamber is forced up a tube toward ground surface. On an upstroke lower production fluid is drawn from the lower level into the lower chamber through a lower intake, and upper production fluid in the upper chamber is forced up the tube toward ground surface.
