  • Patent number: 9555509
    Abstract: A wellbore screen including: an apertured base pipe; an intermediate filtering layer including a plurality of metal fibers wrapped helically around the apertured base pipe and a fluid tracing filament wrapped helically about the apertured base pipe, the fluid tracing filament including a filament structure and a tracer carried by the filament structure, the tracer being entrainable produced fluids in a wellbore environment; and an outer apertured shell over the intermediate layer. A method for producing a wellbore screen, the method comprising: forming a filter tube by wrapping an intermediate layer, including a metal wool fiber strip and a fluid tracing filament, about an apertured base pipe in a helical arrangement under tension; positioning the filter tube within the long bore of an outer apertured sleeve; and securing the outer apertured sleeve and the filter tube together.

  • Patent number: 9212540
    Abstract: A cartridge-type wellbore screen includes a fluid tracing material carried by the wellbore tubular and mounted at a mounting site spaced from an opening through the screen wall to the screen's inner diameter and outwardly of the inner diameter, the mounting site being positioned such that a fluid flow path is restricted to be from the mounting site, along the outer surface of the screen and through the opening before entering the inner diameter. The screen can be used for treating wellbore fluids.

  • Publication number: 20130075090
    Abstract: A cartridge-type wellbore screen includes: a cylindrical wall including a first end, a second end opposite the first end, an inner surface defining an inner diameter of the wellbore screen, the inner diameter being open from the first end to the second end, and an outer surface; an opening to the inner diameter through the cylindrical wall the opening extending between the outer surface and the inner surface to provide fluid access from the outer surface to the inner diameter; a fluid filtering material positioned to filter oversize particles from passing through the opening; and a fluid tracing material carried by the wellbore tubular and mounted at a mounting site spaced from the opening to the inner diameter and outwardly of the inner diameter, the mounting site being positioned such that a fluid flow path is restricted to be from the mounting site, along the outer surface and through the opening before entering the inner diameter. The screen can be used for treating wellbore fluids.
