Sand Control Screens

Sand Control Challenges

Sand control is vital to reliable production in many sandstone reservoirs

where sand can present a major obstacle to well production. The
petroleum industry spends millions of dollars each year to prevent and
repair sand control problems including:
▌ Reduced production rates
▌ Sand bridging in tubing and casing
▌ Erosion of downhole and surface equipment
▌ Disposal and removal of sand
▌ Casing damage from compressive loading caused by subsidence
