Stand-alone screens (SAS) have been widely used in steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operations. Although many researchers investigated the flow performance of SAS through sand control tests, the formation damage (pore plugging) due to fines migration has not been characterized under...

Wire-wrapped screens (WWSs) are one of the most-commonly used devices by steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operators because of the capacity to control plugging and improve flow performance. WWSs offer high open-to-flow area (OFA) (6 to 18%) that allow a high release of fines, hence, less...
