SandTrap XL - Halliburton's Advanced Solution For Oil Recovery And Sand Control

Halliburton Company today announced the addition of SandTrap XL to its sand consolidation portfolio. This latest innovation addresses the industry's challenge of excessive sand production with a low-viscosity resin system. Activated externally, it enables solids control over large intervals.

SandTrap XL delivers consolidation strength to formation grains and preserves the original permeability of the rock. This new generation of sand control systems surpasses the limitations of legacy versions. Its external activation allows the treatment of longer intervals without a restriction on pump or cure time.

The SandTrap XL system excels in the treatment of high-clay content mineralogy up to 25% and adapts to various formation mineralogies. It provides thermal stability above 550°F (287°C). This allows it to control sand in heavy oil reservoirs under enhanced oil recovery methods, such as steam flooding.

As part of Halliburton’s portfolio of remedial solutions, SandTrap XL mitigates solids production, including formation sand and fines migration. This approach helps ensure the long-term stability and productivity of oil wells to address the needs of operators in diverse geological environments.
