In order to prevent sand cuts on wellhead chokes and production tubing erosion, sand detection and monitoring systems identify wells or sources of sand production in production systems and prescribe safe production rates.
The oil and gas business requires a lot of work that includes sand detection. It can be done in a variety of ways, from the extreme of shutting down a production separator unexpectedly due to high amounts of deposited sand (operability issues) to less extreme techniques like measuring well-stream fluids.
The application of sensors and monitors that use sand to detect sand generation and give early warning. Additionally discussed are sand sampling and measuring sand buildup in containers.
The three primary techniques for detecting/monitoring sand. They are flowlines, pipelines, and process vessels sand sampling, online intrusive material loss from a probe or element, and online non-intrusive ultrasonic, acoustic sensors.
Sanding in a well or reservoir is seen to be a life-cycle issue that evolves over time as a result of limitations imposed by operational factors such as exploration, drilling, production, and stimulation.
Therefore, it cannot be argued that predictions made before a well is drilled are accurate during or after drilling and during production activities. Setting up a sand management plan makes sense after predicting the production rate of sand.
The ability for reservoir management teams to estimate sanding potential in real time has great promise for the industry, particularly in regards to making economically sensible decisions about the sort of sand control to be used.
The Global Sand Detection and Monitoring system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The Sand Detection and Monitoring system Roxar CorrLog and SandLog Wireless transmitters from Emerson Process Management were just released.
The new system offers a comprehensive wireless integrity management solution for guarding operators’ downstream and upstream assets by integrating Roxar corrosion and sand monitoring instruments with Emerson’s Smart Wireless technology.
The new transmitters will offer flexible, cost-effective, and accurate online monitoring of sand and corrosion, extending equipment life and boosting production from reservoirs at a time when operators continue to face production challenges from sand and corrosion and all too often a lack of integration across their asset integrity management systems.
