The Production Screen Tester is designed to test flow-back of completion fluids on the rig site. It is no longer necessary to ship fluid samples back to the lab and delay the completion operation for days or weeks. Field fluids can be tested in real time with samples of the actual production screen being used down hole. The PST now makes it possible to determine if the fluid remaining in the annulus will flow back through the production screen.
