Product Features & Technical Specifications
- Composite Layered Structure: Multiple layers of woven wire mesh (commonly 2-3 layers) provide enhanced filtration precision and mechanical strength, preventing sand production while maintaining high permeability.
- API 13C Compliance: Manufactured according to API 13C standards, ensuring consistent quality, reliable performance, and compatibility with industry requirements.
- High Sand Retention Capacity: The unique composite design effectively captures fine sand particles (down to 20-100 mesh, customizable) without clogging, extending screen life and reducing well maintenance.
- Excellent Flow Performance: Optimized open area design minimizes pressure drop, allowing efficient fluid flow and maximizing oil/gas recovery rates.
- Durable Materials: Made from high-quality stainless steel or carbon steel with anti-corrosion coating, resistant to abrasion, erosion, and downhole chemical attacks.
- Flexible Dimensions: Available in various outer diameters (3.5" to 7"), lengths (1m to 6m), and connection types (threaded or welded) to suit different wellbore configurations.
- Customizable Options: Mesh size, layer count, and end connections can be tailored per customer requirements, ensuring optimal sand control for specific sandstone formations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What does API 13C certification mean for this screen?
A: API 13C is a standard for wire mesh screens used in oil and gas well completions. Our screens are manufactured to meet this specification, ensuring consistent geometry, material quality, and filtration performance for reliable downhole sand control.
Q2: Can the screen be customized for specific sandstone formations?
A: Yes. We offer customizable mesh sizes (20-100 mesh), layer counts, outer diameters, lengths, and connection types. Our technical team can recommend the optimal configuration based on your formation’s sand particle size distribution.
Q3: What is the typical lifespan of this composite layered screen?
A: Lifespan depends on downhole conditions (temperature, pressure, fluid chemistry, erosion). With proper installation and compatible formation, the screen can endure several years of production. Our durable materials and construction help minimize premature failure.
Q4: How do I install the screen in a wellbore?
A: Installation methods vary by well design. Our screens can be run on a base pipe with threaded connections, welded, or attached via slip-on mechanisms. We provide installation guidelines and can support with technical drawings if needed.
Q5: What is the maximum flow rate this screen can handle?
A: Flow rate is influenced by screen area, mesh size, and formation permeability. The composite design offers high open area to minimize pressure drop. For specific flow rate calculations, please provide your well parameters, and we can assist.
Q6: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we can provide small sample pieces for performance evaluation. Please contact our sales team to discuss sample size and cost. Custom samples for specific applications are also available.
Q7: What are your shipping options and lead time?
A: We ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Foshan ports. Standard lead time is 15-30 days depending on order quantity and customization. For urgent orders, express shipping can be arranged upon request.
Q8: How do I ensure the screen matches my existing completion equipment?
A: Provide us with your connection type, thread specifications, and wellbore dimensions. We can manufacture screens with compatible threads (API or custom) and dimensions to ensure a perfect fit with your existing downhole tools.
