The brittleness and the poor resistance to external load of oil well cement impede the development of oil and gas wells. To overcome these deficiencies, latex powder or rubber and their hybrid combinations were used to modify the oil well cement. The conventional properties, mechanical properties, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the modified cement were analyzed. In comparison with latex powder-incorporated cement and rubber-incorporated cement, a significant improvement of fluid loss, flexural strength, impact strength, and elasticity of the cement slurry was observed when using the hybrid combinations of 3 wt.% latex powder and 2 wt.% rubber, although this synergistic effect was not remarkable on the compressive strength and the thickening time. These evidences arose from the synergism between latex powder and rubber leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network structure and a flexible structure which subsequently improved the elasticity and toughness of cement stone. The improved elastic matrix has a buffering effect on external impact when the cement stone is subjected to an external load.

Abstract High performance cement slurry polymer modifiers are increasingly in demand in the cementing process of oil and gas. A new polymer modifier with outstanding fluid loss control and high strength and toughness was synthesized by the main monomers butyl acrylate (BA), methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylamide (AM), the functional monomers vinyltriethoxysilane (VTS), glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and the initiator of ammonium persulfate (APS) through emulsion polymerization. By using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, a laser particle analyzer, a scanning electron microscope and a differential scanning calorimeter, we studied the mechanism of fluid loss control and microstructure of polymer latex cement slurries. The experimental results showed that the copolymer could be crosslinked at 160°C and have the lowest fluid loss control, 12 ml, when the polymer content reached 5%. Acrylate latex modified by the silane coupling agent VTS had excellent performance on fluid loss control, as well as mechanical properties for oil well cement. These results have a potential significant value for the development of a new polymer cement modifier with high thermal stability and durability.

The effect of graphite oxide (GO) on the mechanical properties of oil well cement was experimentally studied, in view of the zonal isolation failure due to the brittleness. The microstructure of cement stone was observed by SEM, and the mechanism of graphite oxide reinforced cement stone was also investigated. The result illustrates that the mechanical properties of cement was improved significantly due to the addition of GO. When the GO dosage was 0.05%, the compressive strength, flexural toughness, and splitting tensile strength of cement paste at 7 day age were increased by 61.32%, 15.46% and 145.34% respectively. GO had no bad effect on the application properties of cement slurry, and the stability of the slurry was favorable. Besides, GO could reduce the fluid loss of cement slurry. When GO reinforced cement stone undergoes damage under complex stress, if damage occurs within graphite oxide layer, chemical bonds of GO layers must have been broken, and the force between the layers of GO must be overcome when interlaminar peeling happens, which will lead large amounts of energy consumption as well. The mechanical properties of the cement stone were enhanced by the above two aspects. The research results can provide a theoretical reference for solving the brittle fracture of oil well cement stone.

AbstractIn this article, incorporation of nano-SiO2 (NS), nano-TiO2 (NT) and nano-Al2O3 (NA) particles and their binary and ternary blends on water filtration in oil-well cement slurry was examined. The nanoparticle contents were chosen at proportions corresponding to 1, 2, 3 and 4% based on the weight of cement. The experimental specimens were tested at three various temperatures of 70, 80 and 90 °C using a gas pressure of 1000 psi. The quantity of water filtrate collected was measured in milliliter (mL) at 30 min after the test begins. The results consistently indicate that an additional of NS, NT and NA particles independently, reduced the loss of liquid in cement, and its performance varies with temperature and the nanoparticle dosages. The 3% NS usage delivered strong evidence in lessening fluid loss compared to the other results by reducing the loss up to 72%. When collective impact of nanomaterials was determined, the fluid retainment was also improved. The replacement of 4% NST reduced fluid loss by the most compared to NSA and NTA binary groups. In-case of ternary combination, NSTA showed a highest reduction of the water loss by 58–60% likened to the plain samples at the concentration of 4%. The key investigation of this paper clearly suggested that the efficacy of Class G cement having nanoparticles to trap its water is dependent on the nanoparticle contents. The lessening of water filtration might be explicated by the filling capability of nano-scale particles. Nanoparticles can plug the openings within the oil-well cement slurry matrix, thus promoting the retainability of water. Besides, nanoparticles quickens the hydration products by creating dense interlocking C–S–H gels for bridging cement grains and forming enclosed structure which can stop the liquid from escaping the slurry.

In order to study the effect of brine environment on the performance of oil well cement fluid loss additive (FLA) sodium p-styrene sulfonate/N-methylol acrylamide/itaconic acid (SSS/HAM/IA), the water loss of three different cement slurry systems added with different FLA additions (fresh water cement slurry, semi-saturated brine cement slurry and saturated brine cement slurry) were tested at 90°C and 150°C. The results show that SSS/HAM/IA has good salt tolerance. The water loss of three cement slurry systems was controlled within 100mL with FLA addition adjusted in the range of 1%~3% below 150 °C. The salt tolerance mechanism of SSS/HAM/IA was analyzed based on the microstructure of the three system terpolymer solutions characterized under environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM).

The conventional oil-well cement dispersant has the characteristics of poor dispersion at high temperature, poor compatibility with other additives, and environmental pollution during the production process. In this article, with ultra-early strong polyether monomer, acrylic acid, 2-acrylamine-2-methylpropyl sulfonic acid, sodium methacrylate as copolymer monomers, an environmentally friendly polycarboxylic acid dispersant, DRPC-1L, was prepared by the aqueous solution free-radical polymerization. The chemical composition and thermal stability of the synthetic copolymer were characterized by FTIR and TGA techniques. The evaluation results show that DRPC-1L has a wide temperature range (30~210 °C), good salt-resistance and dispersing effect. It can significantly improve the rheological performance of cement slurry, and it is well matched with oil-well cement additives such as fluid loss agent, retarder and so on. Moreover, it is beneficial to the mechanical strength development of set cement, especially the early compressive strength. It can also inhibit the abnormal gelation phenomenon of cement slurry, flash set, that occurs during high temperature thickening experiments, which plays an important role in enhancing the comprehensive performance of cement slurry. Consequently, the novel polycarboxylic acid dispersant has good application prospects in deep and ultra-deep wells cementing.

A terpolymer comprised of sodium styrene sulfonate (SSS), fumaric acid (FA), and acrylamide (AM) was synthesized by aqueous free radical copolymerization and evaluated as fluid loss additive for oil well cement. The chemical structure and performance of the terpolymer were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA); the molecular weight and its distribution were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The optimum reaction conditions of polymerization were obtained: a reaction temperature of 50°C, a mass ratio of SSS/FA/AM 4 : 2 : 14, initiator 0.1%, and reaction time of 4 h; characterization indicated that the SSS/FA/AM had a certain molecular weight and excellent temperature-resistant and salt-resistant properties. The results show that SSS/FA/AM has a good fluid loss performance, in which the API fluid loss of the oil cement slurry could be controlled within 100 mL at 160°C. In addition, it had little effect on the cement compressive strength. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the filter cake showed that SSS/FA/AM could be adsorbed on the surface of the cement particles and produce a hydrated layer to prevent fluid loss from the oil well cement.

Oil well cement is a type of natural brittle material that cannot be used directly in cementing operations. Fiber is a type of material that can effectively improve the strength and toughness of cement stone, and hybrid fiber materials can more effectively improve the performance of a cement sample. To overcome the natural defects of oil well cement, the new mineral fiber, i.e., wollastonite fiber, and common carbon fiber were used in oil well cement, and the micromorphology, mechanical properties, and stress-strain behavior of the cement were evaluated. The experimental results show that carbon fiber and wollastonite fiber are randomly distributed in the cement paste. The mechanical properties of the cement paste are improved by bridging and pulling out. The compressive strength, flexural strength, and impact strength of cement stone containing only carbon fiber or wollastonite fiber are higher than those of the pure cement, but too many fibers are not conducive to the development of mechanical properties. A mixture of 0.3% carbon fiber with 6% wollastonite fiber in oil well cement slurry results in a greater increase in compressive strength, flexural strength, and impact strength. In addition, compared with blank cement stone, the strain of the mixed cement stone increases substantially, and the elastic modulus decreases by 37.8%. The experimental results supply technical support for the design of a high-performance cement slurry system.

Oil well cement is a brittle material, which can not ensure the long-term sealing integrity of oil and gas wells when used in cementing operations directly. As a kind of polymer emulsion material, epoxy resin emulsion has a bright future for improving the properties of the cement slurry. Epoxy resin emulsion was added to oil well cement and its workability and mechanical properties were studied, the stress-strain behavior of cement samples was evaluated, and the microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show the epoxy resin emulsion used in oil well cement will affect the fluidity, but the rheological property of cement slurry with different content of resin meets the construction requirements. The resin reduces the water loss of cement paste and has no adverse effect on the thickening time. The compressive strength of cement stone decreases with the increase in resin content. When the content of resin is 6%, the flexural strength and impact strength of the cement sample are the largest, and 50.7% and 20.2% higher than that of the specimen without resin, respectively, after curing for 28 days. Further comparison shows that epoxy resin emulsion can improve the mechanical properties of oil well cement better than styrene-butadiene rubber latex. Meanwhile, the resin obviously improves the deformability and decreases the elastic modulus of cement stone. Compared with pure cement, resin cement slurry has no extra hydration products, but the formation of hydrated calcium silicate is inhibited. The microstructure shows that the resin forms a polymer film in the cement matrix and interweaves with cement hydration products, thus improving the flexibility of cement paste.
