... years resulting in a different fit for purpose fracturing strategy for each basin varying from conventional single-stage fracturing (urban, desert & remote forested regions) to high volume multi-stage fracturing, deepwater frac-packs and offshore ultra-HPHT fracturing. The objective of this paper...

... Extension Pack / Frac Pack job with fine movement control resin and a re-defined perforation strategy. Perforation strategy consists of limited number of 180 deg phasing non-oriented perforations done under dynamic underbalance conditions. The key requirement to have fracturing as a sand control method...

... encountered in a sandstone reservoir requiring acidization and presents a hydrofluoric (HF) acid/aminopolycarboxylic acid (APCA) fluid stimulation methodology and ensuing field validation. Frac-pack sand control is the preferred completion method in many wells located offshore West Africa. This method...

... require sand control, specifically frac pack technology, due to the high fines content. Long frac pack intervals (up to 60m) at inclination up to 75 degrees were designed using alternative path screen technology to maximize reservoir exposure as well as to obtain high injection rates and proppant...

... and economic drivers for the field or well; there are various options in the industry that range from highly sophisticated (Frac Packs, Expandable screens, etc.) to simpler systems (slotted liners, standalone screens, etc.). When sand production is predicted to become an issue during the life of the well...

The presented workflows and methodologies is to constitute a new sand control benchmark for well design and production optimization and serve as an engineering guide for optimizing the sand control cost in Malaysia. frac and pack Reservoir Characterization reservoir geomechanics sand control wellbore...

... at the sand face. This new technology can be installed over traditional sand screens in gravel pack or frac pack applications, with no negative impact on the sand control functionality of the screens, or the quality of the pack. The installed fiber optic provides the equivalent of a strain gauge positioned...

The collaborative effort also resulted in the first successful application of Frac-Pack completion in EMEPMI operations, yielding sustainable and prolific gas production. Key implications of this successful venture...

... gravel packs (IGP) and high-rate water packs (HRWP) with good success rates. However, there were concerns of inconsistent final completion skins that could result in wells not producing to full potential. In an effort to improve and optimize sand-control techniques, the frac-pack technique...

... by formation damage in the near wellbore area or sub-optimal tubing size. Major factor contributing to near wellbore damage was considered to be the use of oil -based mud during drilling in order to stabilize hole conditions. Frac pack completions helped in improving the initial deliverability in wells...
