Top performing sand control meets groundbreaking inflow control technology. FluxRiteTM is a unique pressure profile control screen designed to provide sand control and equalize the influx of fluid into the well from the toe to the heel. By strategically placing inflow control devices (ICDs) along the production zone, one can: a) sweep the well uniformly, b) prevent or delay gas/water coning, c) choke off unwanted hi-perm water streaks, and d) remove filter cake damage via higher drawdowns.
FluxRiteTM uniquely employs the popular and powerful FluxRiteTM sand control media. FluxRiteTM inflow control ports can be placed on each joint or can be spaced out over several joints.
FluxRiteTM can be combined with packers to isolate problematic zones and minimize annular flow that could significantly reduce oil production and erode screens .
advanced wellbore/reservoir computer simulation models are available to quickly and accurately design the optimum FluxRiteTM ICD strength for a specific application.
FluxRite
Inflow Control Screens
Applications
- Horizontal producers requiring both pressure profile control and sand control
- Vertical/slanted wells with commingled zones of different pressure and/or permeabilities
- Any stand alone completion that requires sand control and flow control
- Gravel pack screen with flow control
- Thermal wells that require uniform toe-to-heel steam injection
- In combination with external/swell packers to isolate harmful zones and minimize annular flow
Benefits
- Provides uniform toe-to-heel productivity sweep of reservoir
- Delays onset of water/gas/steam coning
- Cleans up formation damage, especially at toe which requires extra drawdown or won’t produce
- Allows harmful zones to be easily choked off (water) or isolated (shale)
- Increased reserve recovery for higher NPV
- Advanced Premium media that enhances permeability and is independent of the particle size distribution
- Designed for severe installation and operational conditions
- Unlike channel-based or tube-based ICDs, pressure drop is independent of viscosity
- ICD strength adjustable at the wellsite
Features
- Patented FluxRiteTM Advanced Premium media with high flow perforated shroud protection
- Nozzle-based ICDs for optimum flow control and viscosity independence
- High open flow area media with large flow area between media and base pipe to prevent erosion and unwanted flow restrictions
