Reviewers Concluding Comment;

It is refreshing to see a paper that addresses what can be done when things go wrong. A reader should find sufficient detail to understand the sand production problem that was faced. And, be impressed that an unexpected and significant threat to, the short and medium term, Chestnut field oil production and recovery was successfully addressed in a short timeframe (2-3 months).
