Systems and methods for pipe conveyed gravel pack

A system for implementing a gravel pack operation, the system comprising:

• a wellbore control system that is configured to control a release agent within a wellbore;
• and
• a production string disposed in the wellbore, wherein the production string comprises a gravel pack production string component, wherein the gravel pack production string component comprises:
• a body comprising a wall that forms a cavity;
• a gravel load disposed around an outer surface of the wall of the body;
• a gravel containment apparatus that is configured to secure the gravel load against the outer surface of the wall of the body as the gravel pack production string component is inserted into a wellbore, wherein the gravel containment apparatus has a maximum diameter that is configured to be less than an inner diameter of a casing string within the wellbore to provide for an annulus therebetween;
• and
• a release mechanism that is configured to release the gravel load from the gravel containment apparatus after the gravel pack production string component is positioned within the wellbore for the gravel pack operation and when the release mechanism interacts with the release agent.

A method for implementing a gravel pack operation, the method comprising:

• directing a production string to be inserted into a wellbore, wherein the production string comprises a gravel pack production string component, and wherein the gravel pack production string component comprises:
• a body comprising a wall that forms a cavity;
• a gravel load disposed around an outer surface of the wall of the body;
• a gravel containment apparatus that is configured to secure the gravel load against the outer surface of the wall of the body as the gravel pack production string component is inserted into a wellbore, wherein the gravel containment apparatus has a maximum diameter that is configured to be less than an inner diameter of a casing string within the wellbore to provide for an annulus therebetween;
• and
• a release mechanism that is configured to release the gravel load from the gravel containment apparatus after the gravel pack production string component is positioned within the wellbore for the gravel pack operation and when the release mechanism interacts with a release agent;
• and
• directing a first stage of the gravel pack operation to be implemented, wherein the first stage comprises exposing the release agent to the release mechanism of the gravel pack production string component.
