Zusammenfassung:A technique for reducing erosion on the interior of a production component of a well system involves coating the interior of the production component with a series of ribs and grooves. The coating can be a non-metallic material in which the ribs and grooves are formed. The coating can also be applied as a series of ribs that are attached to the interior surface of the production component. The series of ribs can be made of alternating materials that have a different hardness causing the ribs to wear at different rates.
