Bottomhole Area Cleanout from Proppant and Sand Bridges

Bottomhole Area Cleanout from Proppant and Sand Bridges

Cleanout of the bottomhole area is a critical operation for restoring and maintaining well productivity - particularly after hydraulic fracturing (frac) operations or in wells experiencing severe sand ingress. We carry out integrated cleanout operations to remove proppant and sand deposits from both the bottomhole area and the wellbore itself, utilizing specialized equipment.

We Offer:

  • Post-Frac Proppant Removal:
    Residual proppant left after hydraulic fracturing can clog downhole screens, reduce formation permeability, and cause abrasive wear of the equipment.
  • Sand Bridge Cleanout:
    Sand bridges are a common cause of reduced production rates, elevated bottomhole pressure, and sticking.
  • Integrated Approach:
    Cleanout operations can be performed as a standalone service or as part of workover or well intervention operations. We provide:
    – Equipment selection tailored to specific downhole complications.
    – Hydraulic modeling and optimal operating parameter design,
    – Real-time monitoring of abrasive wear,
    – Cuttings and fluid sample analysis,
    – Full engineering support throughout the operations.

Our Advantages:

Use of high-tech, proprietary equipment engineered for aggressive environments and challenging well conditions

Team of experienced engineers with field-proven expertise across Russia and the neighboring countries

Rapid mobilization capability- crews ready to deploy on short notice

Results:

Restored well productivity

Prevention of downhole failures and sticking

Extended interval between workovers
