Our premium sintered mesh screens have a single layer or multiple layers of woven wire mesh, sometimes sintered, forming a resilient filter and providing weld integrity and mechanical stability. Mesh screens maintain their strength during installation without altering the filter pore openings.

With a unique construction, drainage layers, and an optimized number of basepipe perforations, these screens evenly distribute flow across the full area of mesh and reduce the risk of plugging at the screen face. They can be used in openhole or cased hole completions with gravel packs or as stand-alone screens.

Tech Paper Characterizing, Designing, and Selecting Metal Mesh Screens for Standalone Screen Applications

Discrete element method (DEM) simulations have proved to be valuable for selecting screens with simple geometries (e.g., wire wrap screens) under prepack test conditions (Mondal et al., 2011). Metal mesh screens (MMSs)—commonly referred to as premium screens—can have multiple (sometimes sintered) layers with different weave patterns.

Tech Paper Multizone Horizontal Openhole Gravel Pack with External Zonal Isolation and Inflow Control Devices Allows for Production of Left-Behind Reserves in Sand-Prone Reservoirs

Oil production from the Llanos foreland basin in Colombia is seriously affected by sand production and high water cut. Sand production has been successfully controlled with horizontal openhole gravel packs; however, early water breakthrough causing water cuts as high as 90% remained a challenge.
