Sand Production Prediction SandPredictor is a user-friendly analytical volumetric sand production tool for field prediction. The user can check the influence of planned oil production strategies on the amount of expected sand, and thus tailor both draw-down and depletion scenarios so as to minimise sand production during the whole expected life ...

the production condition at which sand production occurs. Sanding onset prediction involves simulating the stress state on the surface of an oil/gas producing cavity (e.g. borehole, perforation tunnel) and applying appropriate sand production criterion to predict the fluid pressure or pressure gradient at which sand production occurs. In this
The classification of field measurements of sand production is considered an essential part of sand prediction as it defines the situation assessed. The term sand production envelops a wide range of phenomena. A classification is developed, based on field observations, to allow for a better comparison and interpretation of sand production events.
Sand production prediction Sand production is a serious problem in many petroleum basins worldwide. It costs the oil and gas industry tens of billions of dollars annually. CSIRO has developed capability and unique models to predict sand production and its severity a key step in tackling sand production problems.
The consequences of sand production are always detrimental to the short-long-term productivity of the well. Although some wells routinely experience manageable sand production, these are the exception rather than the rule. In most cases, attempting to manage sand production over the life of the well is not an attractive or prudent operating ...

Production from both SAGD and CSS continue to grow reaching 2.6 MMb/d by 2040 while primary and EOR production increases early in the projection to 0.30 MMb/d by 2025 before declining to 0.25 MMb/d by 2040. Mined production reaches 1.7 MMb/d in 2022 and remains relatively stable for the remainder of the projection period.

title = "Parametric study of sand-production prediction: Analytical approach", abstract = "An unconventional perforation-tunnel stability analysis is conducted in this work by separating the role of two independent factors on sand production: well pressure and local pressure gradient around a cavity.
Prediction of continuous or intermittent sand production requires a more sophisticated model, such as that described in Ref. 1. But for many situations, such as for the high-rate, high-pressure gas wells described in this paper, erosional and safety issues dictate that any sand production should be avoided.
The research projects on erosion/corrosion use experimental data and computer modeling. Testing in a three-phase flow miniloop (water, oil, and sand under CO2 pressure) is performed to provide the experimental base for developing production velocity guidelines and design guidelines for sweet production when sand is present.
Therefore, there is always a cost benefit if sand management and modeling is implemented early before well completions. Due to the importance of the sand production prediction in the oil industry, considerable efforts have been made in developing robust numerical methods for sand production prediction.

The migration of formation sand caused by the flow of reservoir fluids. The production of sand is generally undesirable since it can restrict productivity, erode completion components, impede wellbore access, interfere with the operation of downhole equipment, and present significant disposal difficulties.

Sand production may be inevitable in many fields that have a relatively lower formation strength. Sand erosion and settling predictions and sand monitoring are important elements of any effective ...
Sand Production Prediction W.R. Moore, SPE. BJ Services Co. Many investigators over the years have researched the causes of sand production and searched for a reliable means to predict it. Sand production prediction is important because of the safety, environmental, and operational concerns involved when produced

Aug 23, 2018 · Similar to reservoir simulation history matching, the sand production prediction model is validated with actual TSTs and sand production test results prior to prediction. On this matter a down-hole sand scanner tool along with production logging were run in our well to acquire actual sand production, FBHP and CDDP data for model validation.

Excessive sand production is, therefore, undesirable and will limit oil recovery rates. A typical measure of these limits on recovery rates is the so-called "sandfree rate." A sandfree rate might be based on direct damage caused by sand production or might be based on the cost of sand management systems that limit the damage of the sand.
Irrespective of the sand production mechanism, the first step in effective sand control is to forecast the sanding potential early in the well life so that an appropriate control strategy can be ...
To accurately predict sand production, it is necessary to determine the volume of the plastic zone and the discharge mechanism of the failed materials. Geilikman et al. (1994) developed a sand production model to predict sand production rate after well-startup for Canadian heavy oil reservoirs. The prediction model used the Drucker-Prager ...
