Slotted Liner: The Perfect Solution for Oil and Gas Production
Published on:
2023-05-22
Simply put, a slotted liner is a well casing with narrow slots cut into it that allow oil and gas to filter through the sides while preventing debris and sand from entering.
As an API (American Petroleum Institute) casing, slotted liner plays a critical role in the oil and gas industry, facilitating a successful production process. Simply put, a slotted liner is a well casing with narrow slots cut into it that allow oil and gas to filter through the sides while preventing debris and sand from entering.
But why use slotted liner? The answer is simple. The narrow slots provide a controlled route for influx of fluids, making it possible for optimal oil production with fewer complications. The slots are accurately shaped to prevent any deformations, ensuring the liners maintain their shape during installation within the oil well.
Compared to other conventional well screens, slotted liners offer superior performance, better filtration, and fewer clogs, which can lead to significant cost savings. Slotted liners can attain great lengths, ease installation and saves resources and time.
In summary, slotted liners are an essential element to a successful oil and gas production. By adopting slotted liners in well designs, the operators can reduce the risk of production complications, improve production assets, and reduce costs.
