    摘要: The present invention provides methods and ultra-low density sealing compositions for sealing pipe in well bores penetrating formations which readily fracture at low hydrostatic pressures. A method of the invention basically comprises the steps of providing a hardenable ultra-low density sealing composition comprised of an epoxide containing liquid, a hardening agent, a hardening accelerating agent, a light weight filler and hollow glass michrospheres having a density in the range of from about 5 to 8.5 pounds per gallon, placing the sealing composition in the annulus between the pipe to be sealed and the walls of the well bore and allowing the sealing composition to harden therein.

    摘要: Improved methods of drilling well bores utilizing foamed aqueous drilling fluids are provided. The methods basically comprise circulating an aqueous drilling fluid containing a single foaming and defoaming surfactant and a gas downwardly through a rotary drill pipe and drill bit connected thereto. Well bore cuttings generated by the drill bit are lifted to the surface by foam produced from the aqueous drilling fluid and gas. Upon reaching the surface, the foamed aqueous drilling fluid is defoamed whereby the cuttings and gas are removed therefrom and the aqueous drilling fluid is combined with additional foaming surfactant when needed and additional gas. The foaming and defoaming of the aqueous drilling fluid are accomplished by changing the pH of the aqueous drilling fluid from basic to acidic which causes the single foaming and defoaming surfactant to foam and defoam the aqueous drilling fluid.
