Plugging due to fines migration in sandpacks

This paper intends to show the plugging problem due to fines migration when sandpacks are used. Plugging causes pore throat blocking which causes permeability to decline. Sandpacks and glass bead packs were used in the experiments. The porosity and absolute permeability were determined prior to fur...
