In this work, evaluating the impact of sand control techniques on the production performance in horizontal wells is evaluated. Some performance indicator tools such as the well inflow quality ...
The sand control method selected depends on site-specific conditions, operating practices and economic considerations. This page introduces the available …
sand control requirements and provide a means to estimate the particle size for stable arching of sand around a slot during production. The slot must be designed to allow free flow of fines and clays through the slot and near well pore space without plugging. Based on the findings of research documented in this thesis, the minimum slot width ...
The gravel is more erosion-resistant than the screen material. Gravel pack techniques are well studied and the primary choice for sand control (King 2003; Price-Smith 2003; Williams 2006). Chemical …
Sand control has been a challenge to the petroleum industry since oil and gas was produced from weakly cemented sandstone formations. Several techniques have been applied; 1) restricted (critical) production rate, 2) screen and/or gravel packing, 3) sand consolidation, 4) FracPacking, 5) oriented and/or selective perforation, and 6) …
Swellables are easier to implement than other isolation options and can be a cost-effective solution. Swellable packers are one-trip, self-setting products without any mechanical parts and do not require a …
Sand control is used in deep offshore wells, shallow conventional wells, thermal heavy oil production operations, shale projects to prevent hydraulic fracturing sand backflow, water wells, etc. Sand …
Sand control Conventional well completions in soft formations (the compressive strength is less than 1,000 psi) [1] commonly produce formation sand or fines with fluids. These formations are usually geologically young (Tertiary age) and shallow, and they have little or no natural cementation.
Thanks to EquiFlow AICD technology, the well improved significantly starting with only 15.9 percent initial water cut and reaching 23 percent over the same period, dramatically reducing water production by over 65 percent. The well is stable, producing more oil and significantly less water, resulting in higher expected ultimate recovery (EUR).
Sand Control Methods. Sand control can be active and passive. Active sand control is the most common and implies the use of mechanical devices, typically a pipe with different types of slots or a …

Nanoparticle Technology. At the forefront of sand control technology is the use of nanoparticles, ultrafine particulates of between 100 and 1 nanometres in size. Nanocrystals are added to the proppant that keeps hydraulic fractures open during the drilling process. These nanocrystals are able to fixate formation fines - loose or …
Sand Control The Future of Energy Sustainability Dedicated downhole equipment and services Migration of sand within the reservoir can present major obstacles to well production through reduced production rates, …
Therefore, the major challenge is to regain sand control in existing completions and prevent sand from filling the wellbore, without the requirement to perform a workover or complex thru-tubing gravel packs. Proper diagnosis is the critical first step to any kind of well remediation planning and execution. But determining the precise location ...
The gravel is more erosion-resistant than the screen material. Gravel pack techniques are well studied and the primary choice for sand control (King 2003; Price-Smith 2003; Williams 2006). Chemical sand control techniques are available to cement the formation sand grains together for a radius of several feet from the wellbore.
This review aims to bring together the studies on petroleum reservoirs' sand production control in a comprehensive guide for the researcher to compare various methods for the chemical consolidation of sand. Sand production can be considered one of the major challenges in the petroleum production industry, causing severe operational …
A variety of elastomers are available that will expand in water-based fluids or oil-based fluids. FREECAP are highly reliable, have no moving parts, and require no inflation or manipulation to seal, removing the inherent risks of mechanical tools.

Successful sand control in high rate oil and water wells can be achieved by following this procedure: define the sand, design the gravel, control the placement, and stabilize the pack once it is in place.Introduction. A key factor affecting the profitability of waterflooding heavy-oil, unconsolidated-sand reservoirs is the ability to achieve effective sand control …

Excessive sand production rates can plug the wellhead, flow lines, and separators which can result in detrimental well control situations. This paper will provide a comparative study on various sand control mechanisms by reviewing the latest advancements in sand management techniques.
Several sand control techniques have been used in SAGD wells in Western Canada. For most projects, slotted liner has been the sand control of choice for its economics, ease of use, and acceptable ...
ways to control or eliminate it. Sand production in most cases will continue except some sand control method is adopted. Such techniques include: 1. Gravel packing (internal/external) 2. Expandable sand screens (ESS) 3. Stand-alone screens (SAS) 4. Frac packs 5. SCON These sand control mechanisms have been used at various times to …
