Sand control operations are measures taken to prevent the migration of formation sand into the wellbore during petroleum production. Sand production occurs in unconsolidated sandstone reservoirs that experience mechanical failures and/or are exposed to frictional drag forces from produced or injected fluids. Each year the petroleum industry expends vital resources on issues related to sand production, costing operators worldwide time and money. The most common sand production issues are equipment repair/replacement, reduced or lost production, and the cost associated with sand removal and disposal.

Now more than ever operators are charged with mitigating risks, reducing costs, and improving well performance. Partner with a provider that has stood behind their quality service and products for more than 40 years.
