After many years of producing a lower zone in the Conger FMT Chevron recompleted existing wells in an upper zone. The lower zone was closed off with a cast iron bridge plug. Severe problems with sand production were encountered and various methods were used to produce the well and deal with the sand. This paper will review the problems and solutions encountered when these changes were made. It will also review the different pump designs that were used and which were successful.
