Darcy - A unique Sand Control System
Darcy’s Sand Control System offers enhanced options for Wellbore and Sandface support providing a positively compliant Screen, a Premium Filter and where necessary an integral ICD, a world’s first combination.
The Darcy system eliminates the most common failure modes associated with Conventional Sand Control methods. The Darcy system eliminates the Annular Gap by a unique activation system ensuring the system remains positively compliant with the Sandface to maintain wellbore support.
The system has significantly higher inflow area which minimises the flowing velocity through the screen, avoiding screen erosion.
The systems robust construction and collapse resistance provides a “life of well” solution even in the most challenging environments including Low Pressure, Shallow and Heavy Oil Reservoirs as well as Injection or Gas Storage Wells and Brownfield locations.
The systems installation simplicity eliminates the time, effort and cost associated with expandable screen and gravel pack completions.
The system lends itself to remote or environmentally sensitive locations as gravel pack fluids, pumping equipment, installation tooling, and excess personnel are eliminated from the process.
The systems modular design is easily integrated with commonly run completion equipment.
Why Critical Matrix Management?
Critical Matrix Management™ offers enhanced options for wellbore support by expanding the zone of influence beyond the likely deformation zone in compacting reservoirs.
Darcy's modular Tri-axial Activation Platform is the first to be able to exert and modulate calculated stresses beyond the wellbore, providing active matrix management.
