Sand Production Test

Laboratory
 
  • We perform sand production testing for continuous measurement of the produced sand as a function of factors such as time, effective stress, and flow rate

  • Both hollow cylinder (scaled testing of the wellbore) and perforated samples (for full-scale testing of the perforation) can be used in the sand production testing

  • We also use this facility for the testing of SAGD liners using screen coupns which can include multiple slots.

  • Sample diameter can be up to 7-in. diameter and 11-in. height

  • The facility consists of a loading frame, sanding cell, sand measurement unit, fluid flow unit, and instrumentation among others

  • Flow geometry can be liners, radial or spherical

  • Maximum operating axial stress: 11,000 psi

  • Maximum operating confining pressure: 5000 psi

  • Flow rate: up to 5 lit/min
