Cascade³
Extends the life of water injection wells and increases overall field production
Cascade³ is designed to significantly improve the long-term performance of water injection wells. It provides a unique solution to conventional sand control challenges that can result in a number of negative outcomes, limiting production, and ultimately reducing well life. Cascade³ technology eliminates failure mechanisms, such as water hammer, crossflow, and backflow. A high density of flow control valves mounted within conventional sand screens allows high water injection rates while increasing sand control reliability and maintaining injectivity over time.

Asset Life Extension
|
By preventing sand production, Cascade³ extends injection well life resulting in more oil production and greater recovery.
|
Capabilities
|
Allows high water injection rates while increasing sand control reliability and maintaining injectivity over time, without costly re-drills or frequent well clean-outs.
|
Areas of Application
|
Eliminates issues encountered in injection wells: water hammer effect, crossflow, backflow, impaired injectivity, erosion of completion equipment, sanding of production tubing.
|
Operating Conditions
|
Up to 10,000 BWPD injection per screen joint at low pressure drop and unit velocities.
|
Safety
|
Reducing health and safety concerns, when considered against gravel packing.
