Applications
Heavy Oil
Rising water content raises crude viscosity, and sand production is near universal.

Typical depth range: 400–1,400 m
Water behaviour
Rising water content raises crude viscosity progressively.
Sand behaviour
Sand production near universal in thermal production wells, varying by fault block.
Measurement implications.
Thermal wells produce sand continuously and vary block to block, so per-well solids measurement is the basis for any lift or separation decision.
All well conditions carry the potential for sand production and need continuous attention. Measuring solids as a phase rather than inferring them is what makes that possible.
