Sand production from (relatively) unconsolidated reservoirs is a frequently encountered, costly operational problem which has a significant impact on the case of well operation and the economics of oil or gas production. It is usually associated with shallow, young formations, but has also been encountered at depths greater than 4000m. Other types of unstable formations also show similar production problems -i.e. they allow “pieces” of the formation to break away and enter the perforation or wellbore. Soft chalks, shales, siltstones and rubble zones can all flow particles, undergo plastic failure or slough particles due to mechanical formation failure the stresses imposed by well production.
