Sand production simulation under true-triaxial stress conditions

Sand production in weakly consolidated sandstone reservoirs could result in damaging the production and surface facilities. Sanding includes two stages: the failure of sandstone around the borehole and sand grains being transported into the borehole. The first stage is related to stresses around the...
