Prevent solids production in highly unconsolidated formations

SandTrap® XL sand control service employs an externally activated, low-viscosity resin system that provides consolidation strength to the formation grains without compromising rock permeability. Unlike internally activated resin systems, there are no restrictions on pumping or activation time to allow treatment of longer intervals.

Applications

  • Applicable to high drawdown wells
  • Remedial or primary treatment to stop formation sand production
  • Treatment can be bullheaded or pumped through CT or jointed pipe
  • Recommended for formations above 50 mD
  • Applicable up to 20% clay content
  • Highly suitable for different completion types such as a cased hole and perforated, slotted liners, OHGPs, and CHGPs

Features

  • Low viscosity, externally activated resin system
  • High flash point of 150°F (66°C)
  • Resistant to acid, H2S, and/or CO2 environments
  • Suitable for use in temperatures up to 550°F (288°C)

Benefits

  • Minimizes solid production, prevents harm to downhole and surface equipment and reduces costly workover interventions
  • Increases consolidation strength (i.e., UCS) to the formation with minimum impact on the permeability of the rock
  • External activation allows placement in long intervals
  • Minimize wellbore damage
  • Enhance production efficiency
  • Extend overall lifespan of the well
