Abstract

A system for developing or cleaning a screened well using dual concentric drill pipe. A blind annulus injection sub and a development head are interconnected with the drill pipe and so constructed that compressed air passing down the inner pipe is directed through nozzles in the head to agitate formation water and clear the screen. When air is passed down the pipe annulus it is injected into the inner pipe and causes formation water and sand to be drawn into the head and airlifted to the surface through the inner pipe.
