Abstract
A method for deploying a pump in a wellbore includes coupling the pump to an end of a coiled tubing having upper and lower coiled tubing portions interconnected by a releasable tubing connector, and inserting the pump into the wellbore by extending the coiled tubing therein until the releasable tubing connector is disposed in a suspending arrangement proximate a surface of the wellbore. The method includes uncoupling the upper coiled tubing portion from the releasable connector, wherein the releasable connector, lower coiled tubing portion and pump are retained suspended in the wellbore from the suspending arrangement.
