摘要: A method of sealing propagating cracks in a sensor-laden cement sheath comprising the steps of monitoring an electrical resistivity of the sensor-laden cement sheath to produce a measured value, wherein the sensor-laden cement sheath comprises a conductive sensor, an on-demand expanding agent, and a cement, activating a heat source when the measured value of the electrical resistivity is greater than an activation threshold, increasing a temperature of the sensor-laden cement sheath with the heat source to an activation temperature, wherein the activation temperature is operable to initiate a reaction between the on-demand expanding agent and water, wherein the activation temperature is greater than a formation temperature, reacting the on-demand expanding agent with water to produce a swelled agent, wherein the swelled agent occupies a greater volume than the on-demand expanding agent, and sealing the propagating cracks in the sensor-laden cement sheath with the swelled agent.

摘要: The present disclosure relates to methods of suspending at least one weighting agent in drilling fluids. The embodiments include adding a quantity of precursor nanoparticles including carbon nanotubes supported by metal oxide catalyst nanoparticles to the drilling fluid. The metal oxide catalyst nanoparticles and the drilling fluid are selected such that the metal oxide catalyst nanoparticles are dissolvable in the drilling fluid. The metal oxide catalyst nanoparticles dissolve in the drilling fluid, resulting in an amount of carbon nanotubes dispersed within the drilling fluid. The carbon nanotube dispersion increases the value of at least one of a Newtonian viscosity, a yield point, a plastic viscosity, and a density of the drilling fluid with the dispersed carbon nanotubes versus a similar or equivalent hydraulic fracturing fluid without the carbon nanotube dispersion. The method may further include adding at least one weighting agent which will become suspended in the drilling fluid.

摘要: Methods and compositions for modified well fluids. One method including combining an amount of a synthetic functionalized additive with an intermediate well fluid composition to form a synthetic functionalized additive-containing well fluid composition; the synthetic functionalized additive comprising a synthetic layered magnesium silicate that is covalently bonded to a functional group, and the intermediate well fluid composition comprising a water-based continuous phase with solid particles, wherein the synthetic functionalized additive increases suspension stability of the solid particles versus a well fluid composition comprising the solid particles without the synthetic functionalized additive.

摘要: A lost circulation material is placed in a cavity. The cavity is defined by an inner bore of a cylindrical wall, intermediate of a piston and a screen. A distance between the piston and the screen is defined as the height of the cavity, which is adjustable. The piston is slid longitudinally, such that the piston comes in contact with the lost circulation material. The lost circulation material is heated to a specified test temperature mimicking a downhole temperature. A compression test is performed on the lost circulation material. The compression test includes flowing a test fluid into the cavity and applying force on the piston to pressurize the test fluid to a specified test pressure mimicking a downhole pressure. The force on the piston is released. The pressure of the test fluid and the height of the cavity are measured throughout the compression test.
