ABSTRACT:
The first step in a method for forming a high heat resistant, non-dissolvent sand control pack, as for resisting the high heat eroding and dissolving effects of steam flooding comprises (1) forming a slurry of gravel of silicon carbide alone, or with garnet or zircon mixed therewith. The high heat resistant unconsolidated, permeable, non-dissoluble, and long-life sand control pack consists of the granular material silicon carbide alone, or with garnet or zircon mixed therewith for resisting dissolving during steam flooding for minimizing migration of sand and other granular materials into the well bore from the production zone of hydrocarbon bearing formation.
