Why use a Stainless Steel Wedge wire Screen?

Advantages

of profile wire construction

• No Plugging
• Close slot tolerance

• Effective sand control
• More open area
• Lower entrance velocity
• Less pressure drop
• Better well development

Why would I want Stainless steel casing and Screen?
1: Far more chemical resistant than any other type of casing.
2: Much higher temperature rating.
3: Goes to greater depth.
4: Sunlight cannot break it down.
5: Much longer life than any other pipe.
6: Stronger integral strength.
7:Can use standard BSP threads as a strong jointing method.

This product has been used in many chemical sites to ensure integrity and life when used as a monitoring bore in a toxic area. The other condition where stainless has been used is in some methane gas fields in a monitoring situation at large depths where there was a high heat temperature and PVC would have melted, so DEPS manufactured stainless casing to be used in this situation satisfactory. The screens can be slotted vertical in the stainless tube to avoid the high cost of wedge wire screens.
The casing and screen can be joined by a std BSP thread or if needed flush inside or out a special M/F joined can be manufactured.

My PVC casing is disappearing, where has it gone?
HDPE is used as an alternative material for PVC bore casing in monitoring wells, it is not usually used as bore casing due to its molecular weight, as it is lighter than water it will float and has been found to pop out of the bore into the air on deeper bores. Its chemical resistance is what makes it interesting and capable of being used in monitoring wells, especially where Hydrocarbons are in the water solution. Hydro carbons will eat PVC very quickly so the monitoring bore will collapse and a new bore drilled making this an expensive operation.

By using HDPE in this situation is the ideal solution being fairly inert to the hydro carbon solutions, the HDPE casing must be grouted or cemented in place so the pipe will not float out of the hole.

Benefits
1: No extra costs.
2: Longer life less replacement holes.
3: Tougher material cannot break easily.
4: Readily available material.
5: Sizes available to suit your exact requirements’.
6: Light weight yet still strong.
7: Highly Chemical resistant.
