Specific Challenge

Unwanted solids in a gas-producing wellbore

REGION - USA REGION - USA

Permian Basin, US Land

REGION - USA

Challenge

  • Gas producing wellbore completed with OH, uncemented perforated liner 
  • Wellbore was fracture-stimulated 
  • Gross interval = 316 ft; net payzone = 82 ft 
  • Continuous proppant and formation solids production caused operational problems with artificial lift equipment

Solution

  • PropStop® Service was bullheaded into the wellbore (80% foam quality) and displaced with nitrogen 
  • Well was shut-in for 3 days to allow chemical to cure

Result

  • No proppant or formation material was produced and well maintained productivity
