The larger sand (referred to as gravel pack sand or simply, gravel) is sized to be about 5 to 6 times larger than the formation sand. Gravel packing creates a permeable downhole filter that will allow the production of the formation fluids but restrict the entry and production of formation sand.

Summary. Cased-hole gravel packing is commonly used to control sand production from oil and gas wells. The success of a cased-hole gravel-pack job depends on the ability to effectively pack perforation tunnels, which act as conduits between the reservoir and the wellbore for hydrocarbon production.This project presents a systematic …

A gravel pack drilling offshore is a technique used to prevent the formation of sand in the production of oil and gas. It works by planting a gravel mixture around the outside of the well casing, which acts as a barrier to the migration of sand particles.

Openhole gravel packs should be avoided in formations with several sand and shale laminations if the shales are prone to uncontrollable eroding and/or sloughing. During gravel placement, the shale can intermix with the gravel-pack sand, resulting in reduced gravel permeability and impaired well performance.

Throughout the gravel pack stage of long horizontal wells in deepwater, the friction resistance of the carrying fluid and gravel slurry along the path is high. Conversely, the sand-carrying fluid should have sufficient sand-carrying capacity to carry gravel to the end of the horizontal wellbore to avoid excessive gravel deposition.
