When screens are used as the sole means of sand control, they function as a downhole filter. The entry of sand or other particles into horizontal and vertical wells presents the problem of steel erosion and productivity lost. Downhole is the most desirable location to restrict its access into the well. The problem of material reliability testing is relevant today, that’s why several erosion tests were made and studied. Self-made test bench allow varying velocity flow and fractions conditions (composition, quantity, size, hardness). Slurry erosion experiments resulted in wear of downhole sand control screens. The wear criteria were checked by weight loss of screen samples material and its integrity degradation. The idea of slurry erosion tests was to reveal screens wear.
