Paper presented at the 55th U.S. Rock Mechanics/Geomechanics Symposium, June 18–25, 2021
Paper Number: ARMA-2021-1848
... Abstract Sand production is a complex phenomenon in oil wells where sand grains or chunks are detached from the formation during loading processes and transported to the wellbore by the flowing fluids, either oil, water or gas. This article presents a complete set of different laboratory tests...

... with estimation of strength using these schemes are high and strength estimates need to be treated with caution. Undertaking point load index testing in the field is a useful tool that can provide data to augment field strength estimates and laboratory test data. Field point load index test data can be converted...
