Patent ID: 8893809

Claim:
An apparatus for controlling a flow of a fluid between a production string and a formation, comprising: a base pipe associated with the production string, the production string having a flow bore aligned with a longitudinal axis of the production string; a particulate control device wrapped around and contacting an unperforated portion of the base pipe, the fluid flowing substantially axially through the particulate control device in a direction aligned with the flow bore of the production string, the particulate control device reducing an amount and size of particles in the fluid; and a flow control device axially adjacent to the particulate control device, the flow control device including a retrievable flow restriction element in fluid communication with the particulate control device, the retrievable flow restriction element being positioned in a pocket radially offset from the flow bore and configured to control a flow parameter of the fluid flowing between the particulate control device and the flow bore of the production string, wherein the flow restriction element is configured to be retrieved through the flow bore of the production string.
