Sand control issues in wells can result from improper completion or changes in reservoir properties. Covering all aspects of the topic, this volume shows how methods such as reducing drag forces and mechanical sand bridging can reduce the problems that arise.

This book explains the potential hazards of petroleum engineering activities, emphasizing risk assessments in drilling, completion, and production, and the gathering, transportation, and storage of hydrocarbons--
