Abstract
Summary
This paper starts by recognizing geomechanical and reservoir parameters in predicting sand production rate using the Van den Hoek and Geilikman’s method and predicts sand production rate and the evolution of the intact zone to plastic zone that cause decreasing of formation strength. The plastic zone growth will cause mobilization of the fine grains of sand from reservoir to wellbore. At certain time, the plastic zone growth will decrease and it causes low sand production to the wellbore.
