A customer operating in the Gulf of
Thailand had drilled five wells in the
Bualuang field and was considering
different sand control completion
options. The wells, which were located in
water-sensitive shale, were susceptible
to swelling and destabilization, making
an alpha-beta wave gravel-pack job
using conventional water- or brinebased
carrier fluid especially challenging.
Other options, such as alternate path
screens and viscous brine packs, were
too complex and costly. GeoPACK-carrier-fluid-delivered-effective-gravel-packs-in-shale-cs.pdf
