Read More2015-6-29 Horizontal well completions have been used in a variety of situations to increase well productivity, improve reservoir management, and access incremental reserves that could not be developed economically with vertical wells. While the first horizontal wells were drilled in competent formations, eventually soft formations were completed horizontally, leading to sand control needs.

Unfortunately, likely candidates of horizontal wells are mostly "quicksand" type formations and the critical velocities of sand in a wellbore is extremely low.

Read MoreSand control in horizontal wells The evolution of sand control from historical water wells to recommendations for 15,000 ft+ horizontal oil/gas wells. This summary article backgrounds the need for formation sand entry prevention in downhole producing wells from man's first dumping of rocks into water wells drilled with rock or iron tools.

Read More2021-5-4 Multizone sand control systems. Multizone sand control completion systems are proven to save valuable rig time. Halliburton has a long, successful history with single-trip multizone sand control systems that save days of rig time over stacked sand control systems, capture short, low reserve intervals that would normally be bypassed, and reduce risk by helping eliminate the need to run and ...
Read MoreThe cost of installing sand control facilities which may not really be needed could also be substantial. Therefore, determining the critical flow rate for the onset of sand production is very important. There are several published studies on sanding in vertical wells, but few on horizontal wells, which have now become very prominent in the ...
Read MoreIf all the sand can be carried out of the wellbore, no sand-up will occur and no sand control is required, provided that the surface facilities can handle and process the sand production.In S field, several wells, completed without sand control (gravel pack) have been continuously producing sand (0-1%) for several years without sand-up.

Read More2021-5-2 2. Kick control in horizontal wells. In principle, well control calculations for deviated wells also apply for horizontal wells. However, a bottom hole angle of 90 degrees for the horizontal section cannot be used in the calculations, because of practical arithmetical reasons. An assumed bottom hole angle of 89 degrees should be used instead.

Wire wrap sand control screen. Direct wrap screens. A wire wrap type filter directly wound on to the base pipe. The resistance welding between the radial wire profile and the ...
Read More2020-9-19 Sand control refers to managing/minimizing sand and fine production during petroleum production.Sand and fine produced with oil and gas can cause erosion and wear of production facilities/equipments, resulting in production downtime, expensive repairs, and potentially loss of containment (serious safety risk).
Read More2015-6-29 Gravel packing is currently the most widely used sand-control technique for completing wells. More than 90% of all sand-control completions are gravel packs. Because of its flexibility, almost any well at any deviation can be gravel packed. The exception is tubingless completions where clearances do not permit the use of conventional tools.
Read MoreThis course develops strategies for completing horizontal wells. It covers both cased-hole and open-hole configurations, either with or without sand control. Participants will learn the applications and dynamics of horizontal wells, including drill-in fluids, hole displacement, cementing, perforating, and stimulation.
