Abstract (en)

The present invention provides an expandable sand screen, including an inner pipe, an intermediate pipe fixedly sleeved on the inner pipe, and an outer pipe fixedly sleeved on the intermediate pipe, where a plurality of slots is distributed on a wall of the inner pipe, the intermediate pipe is formed by a wire-like object that is wound spirally, and a plurality of holes is distributed on a wall of the outer pipe. The present invention has the following beneficial effects: The size of sand particles to be filtered can be precisely controlled; the expanded diameter increases the drainage area and reduces the oil flow resistance, increasing the daily crude oil production per well by 30-50%.
