The article investigated the effect of caoutchoucs, sevilen 11808-340, vulcanizing groups, fillers, plasticizers, ingredients of directional actions on the physical and mechanical properties (conditional tensile strength, elongation at break, hardness, rebound elasticity, tear resistance) and operational properties (changes of conditional tensile strength of rubbers after exposure to oil, weight changes after aging of rubbers in a solution of citric and hydrochloric acids, changes in the volume of rubbers after exposure to a mixture of oil and water) of two rubbers. These rubbers are developed for the manufacture of the outer and inner layers of water-oil-swellable sealing elements (WSOE) for the oil and gas industry. It has been established that rubber for the outer layer of WSOE based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, isoprene SKI-3 and butadiene CKD caoutchoucs, as well as rubber for the inner layer of UEN based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, butadiene methylstyrene SKMS-30ARK and butadiene CKD caoutchoucs possess the required physicomechanical and operational properties. It was shown that these rubbers containing a vulcanizing group sulfur + thiazole 2 MBS, sevilen 11808-340, a combination of carbon black T 900 with rosil 175, talc and chalk, petroleum resin “Sibplast”, vermiculite and igloprobivnoe cloth, are characterized by improved physical-mechanical and operational properties. These rubber can be recommended as the basis for the manufacture of outer and inner layers of water-oil-swelling sealing elements.

The article presents the results of a study of the effect of the technological active additive СD-12, which is a combination of zinc salts of fatty acids, on the physical and mechanical properties and resistance to aggressive media of rubber for sealing elements of packer-anchor equipment. The rubber mixture was prepared on the basis of hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene rubber Therban 3406, vulcanizing agent Novoperox BP-40, coagents for vulcanization of zinc monomethacrylate and oligoester acrylates MGF-9 and TGM-3, antioxidants Naugard 445 and agidol-2, fillers of technical carbon P 514 and T 900, filler dispersant stearic acid, rosin softener and other ingredients. To stabilize the physical and mechanical properties of vulcanizates, uniform dispersion of rubber components, reduce viscosity and improve vulcanization properties, a technological additive CD-12 was also introduced into the rubber mixture. The rubber mixture was prepared in a laboratory SKI-3L rubber mixer at a temperature not exceeding 70 °C for 7 min. The resulting mixture was vulcanized on a PV-100-2RT-2-PCD vulcanization press at a temperature of 150 °C for 60 minutes and then further vulcanized in a thermostat at a temperature of 160 °C for 6 hours. For the obtained vulcanizates, the physical and mechanical properties and resistance to the action of aggressive media were determined according to the standards existing in the rubber industry. On the basis of a rubber mixture heat-aggressive persistent sealing elements with a hardness of 70±5 Shore A units were made. These sealing elements as part of two sets of packer-anchor equipment were tested for tightness in a casing string simulator. The tests were carried out in an environment of PMS-200 polymethylsiloxane fluid at a temperature of 150 °C, an axial load of 6 tons and a pressure of 70 MPa. It is shown that both sets of packers have passed the tests and meet the requirements. The developed rubber mixture with a hardness of 70±5 Shore A units, containing the process additive СD-12, can be used for the manufacture of sealing elements for packers used in the oil and gas industry.

The article investigated the influence of the nature and content of coutchoucs, sevilens, vulcanizing groups, fillers, plasticizers, ingredients of directional action on the technological properties (plasticity, ring modulus, density, start time of vulcanization, stickiness) of two rubber mixtures. These indicators characterize the processability of rubber compounds in the manufacture of products from them. The study was conducted in order to select the basis of rubber compounds for the manufacture of the outer and inner layers of water-swellable sealing elements (WSSE). It has been established that rubber compounds for the outer layer based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, isoprene SKI-3 and ethylene-propylene SKEPT-40 coutchoucs, as well as the inner layer of WSSE based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, butadiene methylstyrene SKMS-30ARK and ethylene-propylene SKEPT-40 rubbers possess satisfactory technological properties. It was shown that these rubber mixtures which contain sevilen 11808-340, a vulcanizing group (sulfur + thiazole 2 MBS + guanid F), a combination of fillers (talc + grew 175 + Karelite MK), petroleum resin Sibplast, directional ingredients (vermiculite + needle punched cloth “Oksipan”), hydrosorption additives (polyacrylamide AK 639 + sodium polyacrylate), have improved technological properties. These rubber mixtures can be recommended as the basis for the manufacture of the outer and inner layers of water-swelling sealing elements for the oil and gas industry.

The effect of castor oil on the physical and mechanical properties of bacterial cellulose is described. Bacterial cellulose (BC) was impregnated with 0.5–2% (w/v) castor oil (CO) in acetone–water, providing BCCO films. Scanning electron micrographs revealed that the castor oil penetrated the pores of the bacterial cellulose, resulting in a smoother morphology and enhanced hydrophilicity. Castor oil caused a slight change in crystallinity indices and resulted in reduced tensile strength and Young's modulus but increased elongation at break. A significant reduction in tensile strength and Young's modulus was achieved in BCCO films with 2% castor oil, and there was an improvement in elongation at break and hydrophilicity. Impregnation with castor oil, a biodegradable and safe plasticiser, resulted in less rigid and more ductile composites.

Rubber-technical products, which are used in the oil and gas industry, must have high thermal and aggressive strength. Rubbers based on butadiene-nitrile caoutchoucs are usually used for these purposes, since they have good operational properties. However, under the influence of elevated temperatures, the resistance of such rubbers to the action of petroleum products is reduced, as a result of which the physico-mechanical characteristics decrease. To improve the operational properties of rubber-technical products, various technological additives are introduced into the rubber mixtures. Such additives can be copolymers of ethylene with vinyl acetate(EVA), which increase the resistance of rubbers to action of high temperatures and aggressive media. This is due to the fact that these copolymers are well combined with butadiene-nitrile caoutchoucs, forming coordination bonds with rubber molecules, which contributes thereby increasing in the elastic-strength and performance properties of rubber. In this connection, the influence of EVA (sevillenes 11104-030, 11808-340 and MarPol 1802), differing in the content of vinyl acetate units, on the rheometric, physico-mechanical and operational properties of the rubber mixture based on butadiene-nitrile rubber in this paper was investigated. The study was carried out to improve the thermo-resistance of rubber used for the manufacture of oil and petrol resistant rubber-technical products for the oil and gas industry. The rubber mixture was prepared on laboratory rolls and standard samples were vulcanized in an electrically heated press. The study of rheometric properties has shown that EVA affect the characteristics of the vulcanization process of a rubber mixture. For vulcanizates, the influence of the content of EVA in a rubber mixture on the physical and mechanical properties was studied: the conditional tensile strength, elongation at break, tear resistance, rebound elasticity, Shore A hardness, relative compression deformation. The effect of the standard liquid ZHR-1 on the change in these properties, as well as the degree of swelling of the vulcanizates after their daily soaking in the standard liquid SZHR-1 and a mixture of isooctane + toluene, was studied. It has been established that vulcanizate of a rubber mixture containing sevilene 11808-340 is characterized by the best physico-mechanical and operational properties.

Appropriate concentration of base material and plasticizer is required to obtain good physical and mechanical properties of edible film for food packaging and preservation functions. The aim of this study was to obtain the best combination of the base material and plasticizer in the manufacture of agar films based on physical and mechanical properties. Results showed that the physical and mechanical properties of the agar edible film were affected by the agar and glycerol concentrations. Increasing agar concentrations resulted in the increase in the film thickness, tensile strength (TS), and elongation at break (EAB), but decreased the filmsolubility. While increasing glycerol concentration tended to increase the film thickness and solubility, but decrease the TS of the film. The best concentration combination of agar and glycerol in this study was 3 and 10%, respectively.

Abstract The catastrophic events faced by the Oil and Gas industry in the past depict the importance of maintaining the integrity of the well. The cement acts as a crucial barrier throughout the life cycle of the well. The contamination of the cement occurs due to inefficiency in cementing practices and operations. Experimental investigations have been done on the reduction in mechanical properties of different API class cement considering contamination with water-based mud and oil-based mud. This study focuses on analyzing the changes in mechanical properties of API Class C cement on varying the following parameters: OBM contamination (0%, 0.6%, 1.1%, 2.2%, 4.3%) Curing time (4 hrs, 6 hrs, 8 hrs, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days) Temperature (25˚C, 75 ˚C) API recommendations were followed for preparing the cement slurries. The destructive, as well as non-destructive tests were carried out on the cement samples at ambient room temperature to measure the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) for OBM contaminated class C cement slurries. The general trend observed is that the UCS increases with an increase in curing time and temperature. UCS decreases with an increase in OBM contamination. Logarithmic trends were obtained for UCS vs curing time for different contaminations at a given temperature. Exceptions were observed at lower curing times where contaminated samples showed better results than the neat cement slurries. These observations play a critical role in understanding contaminated cement behavior. This widespread work was carried out only on API Class C cement to provide reliable data for future references. The correlations presented in this paper will help operators estimate the deterioration in mechanical properties of Class C cement in the presence of low OBM contamination.

AbstractThe CW6MC alloy is a nickel-based alloy used to withstand acidic environments, especially in the oil and gas industry where it is used in the production of valves, impellers, and pipes. This alloy is the foundry counterpart of the best known A625 for plastic deformation. Regarding nickel-based alloys, a scrap market like that in the case of steel has not yet been established, therefore, especially in the case of foundries, scrap generally comes from internal recycling (casting waste, feeders, sprues, runners, etc.) to be certain of the origin and quality of the material. In this work, four castings with different percentage of recycled content (0%, 30%, 70%, 100%) were produced in accordance with the technical specifications and analysed to evaluate the effect of scrap on the final chemical composition, the microstructure, the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Following the analyses carried out, it was determined that the amount of acceptable scrap content (of those analysed) without compromising the material properties corresponds to 30%.
