Produced material refers to any solid material taken from a wellbore or production line. These solids can be well contaminants, scales, failed mechanisms such as proppants or pack sands, or formation material. Solids produced from an existing well can indicate an immediate or potential problem that may affect the life of the well. Identification and sizing of the solids collected during well production can show areas of concern before well production is interrupted.
