Migration of sand particles from oil layer with fluid in crude exploration is called the sand production. It can also bring up heavy injuries by unconsolidated sand formation. The company want to invest lot of money on sand control techniques. For maximum profit we have to identify the problem affects the productivity of well, sand production is such a problem that need to be prevented. Evaluating the well inflow and productivity is necessary in determine in the methodology of sand control. The paper introduces several control methods and also performance evaluation. Finding out the maximum safe production rate for wells. Detailed review on different design approaches that put forwarded by different industry. Discussing about different parameter’s, such as productivity, damage rate, injectivity index per horizontal length, etc. Some sand control method used in horizontal wells are Stand-Alone Screens (SAS), Open Hole Gravel System (OHGP), Expandable Sand Screens. This paper also presents new advancements in minimizing the wellbore sand production.
