Abstract

A particulate screen suitable for use in a wellbore. The particulate screen is expandable and may be at least partially formed of a bistable tubular. Also, a filter media may be combined with the bistable tubular to limit influx of particulates.

Claims (8)

1. A system for improving the collapse resistance of an expandable device, comprising:

an expandable tubular system for use in a wellbore environment, the expandable tubular system having a first layer overlapping a second layer; and a locking mechanism, wherein upon expansion of the expandable tubular system, the locking mechanism facilitates maintaining the expandable tubular system in the expanded condition.
2. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein the expandable tubular system comprises a tubular member having a plurality of bistable cells.
3. The system as recited in claim 2, wherein the first layer and the second layer are formed of a filter material wrapped about the tubular member.
4. The system as recited in claim 3, wherein the locking mechanism is coupled to the first layer and to the second layer.
5. The system as recited in claim 4, wherein the locking mechanism comprises ratchet teeth.
6. The system as recited in claim 4, wherein the locking mechanism comprises detents.
7. The system as recited in claim 4, wherein the locking mechanism comprises angled bristles.
8. The system as recited in claim 4, wherein the locking mechanism comprises a plurality of vanes.
