The SDT ICD technology includes sand control screens equipped with inflow control devices and different types of packers to isolate production intervals of a horizontal hole. Our ICDs equalize the inflow profile along the horizontal wellbore section in order to defer/delay water or gas breakthrough and restrict the inflow of adverse fluids/gases into the wellbore in case of a breakthrough happened. The devices mechanism of operation is to control and adjust the resistance to the flow of the produced fluid depending on its physical properties – density and viscosity. There are two generations of the most effective inflow control devices.
