Sand production in oil and gas wells can occur if fluid flow exceeds a certain threshold
governed by factors such as consistency of the reservoir rock, stress state and the type of …

Due to the current global oil price, the sand production is considered undesirable product
and the control of sand production is considered as one of the main concerns of production …

Oilfield chemicals are utilized in treating reservoir formations, wellbore completions,
wellbore drilling, and to enhance reservoir productivity, which exerts pressure on the …

Sand production while producing hydrocarbons from a well is a critical issue faced by the oil
and gas industry. It is a complex process controlled by several factors, including the …

Sand production is one of the major research subjects in petroleum industry. This is usually
studied either by experimental or numerical methods. Experimental tests are usually focused …

Sand production is a severe problem in oilfields and is majorly associated with weak and
unconsolidated formations. Therefore, identifying the expected amount and rate of sand has …

Abstract Changes in effective stress around a borehole due to pressure drop can cause
formation instabilities leading to issues such as sand/solid production and wellbore stability …

To maximize safety and cost-efficiency of CO 2 storage, it is necessary to understand how a
high permeability in the near-well region can be maintained. All the injected CO 2 needs to …

This paper presents the characterization of oil sands from the McMurray Formation. The
main objective of this paper is to investigate the possibility of replicating the oil sands by the …

This paper presents a coupled reservoir-geomechanics model with multi-phase fluid flow for
sand production prediction in a weakly consolidated formation. Sanding criteria are based …
