Water Well Screens – Effective Water Extraction and Sand Prevention in Underground Aquifers

We offer high-quality large-diameter water well screens, constructed with smooth wedge wire and robust support rods welded together, using corrosion-resistant metal materials to ensure durability and longevity. Precise specifications ensure that our water well screens function effectively in underground aquifers, preventing clogging, minimizing extraction resistance and energy consumption, and efficiently lifting fluids from lower layers.

Our water well screens come with customizable screen sizes. Clients can adjust according to their specific needs to meet the requirements of various geological conditions and well depths.

Features

Water well screens help improve groundwater production efficiency while protecting pumps and extending well service life.

  • Continuous slot construction provides high open area for efficient water entry.
  • Lower entrance velocity helps reduce plugging and encrustation.
  • Inward opening slots (FOTI) help prevent sand from becoming lodged in the screen.
  • Helps protect pumps from sand damage and supports stable pumping performance.
  • Lower pressure drop helps reduce drawdown and pumping energy consumption.
  • Strong support rods provide excellent collapse resistance and structural strength.
  • More effective than perforated or slotted pipes in many water well applications.
Applications

Water well screens are widely used in water treatment, environmental protection, seawater conversion, the petroleum industry, and other scenarios.

  • Oil and gas upstream well screen
  • Deep vertical well
  • Supply well
  • Driven/jetted point wells
  • Drilled well
  • High flow municipal wells
  • Domestic water wells for residences and farms
