LiteProp 140 prevented formation damage in gravel- pack operation, reduced footprint 50% Challenges • Reduce equipment footprint and costs • Minimize risk of formation damage in highly permeable formation with narrow fracture gradient Results • Completed the gravel-pack operation without excessive settling of the proppant and without exceeding the frac pressure of the formation • Reduced equipment footprint by 50% An operator working offshore Egypt needed a complete gravel pack of a newly- drilled well using best practices in sand control. The reservoir was depleted, and the operator was concerned that a high sea line pressure would cause most of the production to come from high in the reservoir—missing the potential of the lower zone. But in order to effectively trea
