EVALUATION OF SAND EROSION IN OPEN-HOLE STANDALONE SAND SCREEN COMPLETION USING NUMERICAL SIMULATION

During oil and/or gas production from unconsolidated sandstone reservoirs, the flow may vary greatly, depending on the reservoir environment. Standalone Screen (SAS) in open-hole completion can provide a highly reliable sand control completion. SAS, however, may also be subject to erosion due to san...
