摘要:
According to various embodiments, methods of increasing a shelf life of a gas-generating material comprise: including a C8-C18 hydrocarbon in a mixture used to coat the gas-generating material. This gas-generating material may be used in a cement composition to generate gas therein after the composition has been placed in a wellbore. The coating surrounding the gas-generating material serves to delay the reaction for producing the gas until desired. The gas may serve to inhibit gas migration from an adjacent subterranean formation into and through the cement composition before it sets into a hard mass. Coating the gas-generating material with the mixture may ensure that it can be stored for a relatively long period of time (e.g., up to 1 year or longer) without being concerned that it might experience sintering and thus react prematurely.

According to various embodiments, gas-generating additives for use in a cement composition comprise: a gas-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture comprising a fatty acid ester of sorbitan, glycerol, or pentaerythritol and having a shelf life of about 12 months or greater. The gas-generating additives may also include a C8-C18 hydrocarbon. In more embodiments, cement compositions comprise: a gas-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture comprising a fatty acid ester of sorbitan, glycerol, or pentaerythritol and a C8-C18 hydrocarbon for increasing a shelf life of the gas-generating material. In yet more embodiments, cement compositions comprise: a cement; a fluid for making the cement composition pumpable; a hydrogen-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture for delaying a hydrogen-generating reaction, the mixture comprising sorbitan monooleate and an isoparaffin.

摘要:
Methods of cementing subterranean zones penetrated by a well bores are provided. In accordance with the methods, a cement composition is prepared comprised of a hydraulic cement, sufficient water to form a slurry and an effective amount of a liquid fluid loss control additive comprised of an emulsion having a copolymer of N,N-dimethylacrylamide and 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid or a salt thereof contained therein. The cement composition is placed in a subterranean zone and then allowed to set into a hard impermeable mass therein.
