The prediction of sand production is now a popular research topic in both academia and industry Generally, the sand production happens when the formation stress exceeds the rock strength, which is dominated by the cementation of cements, adhesion of fluids, and friction between particles [ 6 The most sophisticated approach to predicting sand production is the use of geomechanical numerical models developed to analyze fluid flow through Predicting sand production PetroWiki To accurately predict sand production, it is necessary to determine the volume of the plastic zone and the discharge mechanism of the failed materials Geilikman et al (1994) developed a sand production model to predict sand production rate after wellstartup for Canadian heavy oil reservoirs The prediction model used the DruckerPrager failure criterion and assumed erosion of a viscoplastic A sand production prediction model for weak Sand prediction techniques based on field experience rely on establishing a correlation between sand production well data and field and operational parameters The technique most frequently used for prediction of sand production is analogy with other wells in the same horizon, field, or areaSand production prediction using ratio of shear Several sandproduction prediction methods have been proposed using geotechnical models Existing models can effectively predict the onset of sand production and analyze cavity stability and rock failure; however, there still is room for improvement in predicting the volumetric sand production over the lifetime of the wellbore as a function of the completion strategy, drawdown, depletion, and watercutSandProduction Prediction: A New Set of Criteria for
