Improved Bonding And Control Of Annular Flow Achieved With Expansive Cement

Presenters

Dan Bour & Rick Tate, Halliburton Services

Poor bond logs and high water production have plagued a certain development field. Introduction of a unique expansive admix has brought a dramatic switch from failure to success in this trouble area. This has resulted in good bond logs, reduced water production, and is expected to decrease future problems with casing corrosion. All components necessary for chemical expansion are included in the admix to make it more versatile than standard chemical expansion additives. Field results will be used to document the positive results achieved in this development field. Case histories will be given for a number of these wells as well as a discussion of cementing techniques used.
