ALTERNATIVE PATH GRAVEL PACK SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A well screen system comprises a wellbore tubular and a coiled shunt tube disposed along the wellbore tubular. The coiled shunt tube is configured to be unwound from a reel. A method of gravel packing comprises passing a slurry through a coiled shunt tube, passing the slurry from the coiled shunt tube to an annulus between an outside of a sand screen assembly and a wellbore wall, disposing the slurry about the sand screen assembly, and forming a gravel pack in response to disposing the slurry about the sand screen assembly. The coiled shunt tube is disposed along the sand screen assembly.
