Prediction of critical total drawdown in sand production from gas wells: Machine learning approach by Alakbari, Fahd Saeed

“…The CTD is a strong function of the total vertical depth, cohesive strength, effective overburden vertical stress, and transit time with correlation coefficients (R) of 0.968, 0.963, 0.918, and −0.813. Different statistical methods, that is, analysis of variance (ANOVA), F-statistics test, fit statistics, and diagnostics plots, have shown that the RSM correlation has high accuracy and is more robust than correlations reported in the literature. …”
