摘要:
A cementitious slurry is produced by combining an aqueous drilling fluid with a slurry of Portland cement in oil. Generally the drilling fluid is an aqueous drilling fluid containing clay such as prehydrated bentonite. The resulting composition has a particular utility in primary cementing operations for oil wells.
摘要:
A drilling and cementing operation is carried out utilizing a universal fluid comprising blast furnace slag, water, a silicate and a retarder, the components of the drilling fluid being chosen so as to have a dual functionality in promoting the drilling fluid and thereafter in being functional constituents of a cementitious slurry.
摘要:
During directional drilling operation, in order to achieve the correct angle and direction when drilling through a soft formation, a plug of a non-conventional cement is set across the zone in order to achieve the desired course and target. The non-conventional cement is preferably blast furnace slag and a water base drilling fluid.
摘要:
The present invention is a method to cement a wellbore in the presence of carbon dioxide, or when the wellbore will subsequently be exposed to carbon dioxide. The wellbore is cemented using a blast furnace slag cement slurry, and the resulting set cement is considerably less susceptible to degradation by carbon dioxide.
摘要:
A method for strengthening the soil and rock formations forming the structural base of a structure wherein a cement slurry is injected into the soil and rock formations. The method is particularly useful in strengthening the foundations of offshore structures.
摘要:
Drilling fluid properties are enhanced by incorporation thereinto of an alcohol such as glycerol, partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and, optionally, salt.
摘要:
An invert oil emulsion drilling fluid containing oil, an emulsifier such as a fatty acid soap, clay or polymer, and an alcohol such as glycerol or cyclicetherpolyol as the internal phase of the emulsion. A method using substantially water-free drilling fluid and monitoring the influx of formation water into the drilling fluid.
摘要:
A novel process and apparatus have been contrived for the study of the bit/stabilizer balling phenomenon in the laboratory. The device permits a standard testing procedure using a specially designed bob simulating the drill bit for comparing degrees of balling for different rock formations under different drilling conditions involving variable and controlled parameters like weight-on-bit, revolutions-per-minute (rpm), drilling fluids, etc.
