AbstractIn January 2006 El-Wastani Petroleum took a step outside the proverbial "box" and made a decision to use expandable technology as a solution for an existing problem. The well, Gelgel #2, located in the Nile Delta Field of South Manzala, was a prolific gas producer whose upper sand body had watered out. Along with the water came the inevitable sand production from this Miocene Age sandstone. The need to shut off the water and provide sand control within a limited work space was the challenge.included expandable screens and expandable packers, successfully isolated the desired zones. The water was reduced to an acceptable rate and gas rates returned to a respectable rate of 5MMSCFD, the highest gas producer in the South Manzala Field.
