Selection of Optimized Sand Control Completion in Iranian Sandstone Reservoirs

sand production is one of the major concerns associated with oil/ gas production in most of the iranian sandstone reservoirs. Despite different sand control scenarios may exist but one of the key challenges is how to achieve the best and sand control technique for different wells in iranian reservoirs. choosing the best scenario requires an integrated approach to establish reliable practices for collecting , tracking and sharing reliability, success and failure information. in this paper all the cited information required for sand control are discussed in details . the paper also provides a review of past industry attempts to follow sand control completion system reliability . the final objectives of this work are to assist the petroleum industry in improving sand control completion service life improving the basis for selecting sand control system and equipments and better realizing the full potential of sand control completion technologies.
