Design Criteria and Performance Evaluation of Wire-Wrapped Screens for Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) Wellbores
DownloadFall 2019
This thesis presents the experimental results obtained using a large Pre-packed Sand Retention Testing (SRT) facility. Analysis of the results funds the elaboration of novel design criteria for wire-wrapped screens (WWS) in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) applications. The SRT data...

Yujia Guo, Alireza Nouri, Siavash Nejadi
Sand production from a poorly consolidated reservoir could give rise to some severe problems during production. Holding the load bearing solids in place is the main goal of any sand control technique. The only sand control techniques that have found applications in steam assisted gravity drainage...

Experimental Investigation of Gravel-Pack Sizing Performance in Open-Hole Gravel-Pack (OHGP) Applications
DownloadSpring 2021
Bitencourt Zimmermann, José Henrique
This thesis presents a setup for open-hole gravel-pack testing and introduces the experimental results to assess Saucier's (1974) gravel sizing design criteria for gravel-pack applications. A Sand Retention Testing (SRT) was modified to simulate the open-hole gravel-pack (OHGP) scenario....
