- Y02W30/91—Use of waste materials as fillers for mortars or concrete
Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cement slurry composition, a method of preparing the cement slurry composition, a set or hardened cement obtained from the cement slurry composition and the use of the cement slurry composition in cementing or plugging oil and gas well, as well as in civil construction and architecture.
- annular gas migration occurs when formation gas invades into the annulus of the cement structure.
- the cement slurry develops a certain gel strength. That is, the slurry will develop a low shear strength value at the beginning, that fully transmits hydrostatic pressure.
- the cement will no longer transmit the total hydrostatic pressure. Due to the slurry’s capability to sustain shear stress, hydrostatic pressure within the annulus is continually reduced by slurry gelation, resulting in the ability for gas to flow into areas with lower pressure, or to the surface.
- Gas migration through a cement matrix may occur due to loss of hydrostatic pressure because of natural and unavoidable phenomena that occur during cement hydration. This increases the risk of losing control or collapse of the cement structure.
- annular gas migration is gas-channelling, which is a phenomenon that occurs when a compressed (pressurised) gas migrates within the cemented annulus during well cementing or within a cemented in-fill during well abandonment. Gas migration occurs after the cement slurry has been injected into the annular space between the drilled formations and the well casing, or in the case of plugging, into the internal space of the casing. Initially, the pressurised gas is prevented from upward migration by the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the fresh cement mixture column sitting above it. During setting of the cement, as the mixture starts to gain rigidity and stiffens, the hydrostatic pressure starts to decrease. When this hydrostatic pressure drops below the opposing gas pressure, gas migration into the cemented column occurs.
- the pressurized gas then migrates through the cement in the course of its setting and/or between the cement and the drilled formations, creating a series of channels in the cement which may reach the surface of the well. Gas channelling is thus a serious drawback leading to weakening of the cement and poses safety problems on the surface.
- a cement slurry composition comprising:
- the cementitious material comprises 30 % to 95 % of hydraulic cement by weight of total cementitious material (BWTC) and 5 % to 70 % of pozzolan BWTC, and the additive is present at an amount of 0.1 % to 6 % BWTC, whereby the total weight of the cementitious material adds to 100%.
- the cement slurry composition may facilitate the formation of cement composite that is lightweight, high-strength and that has a short gel transition time (GTT) with right-angle set (RAS) behaviour.
- GTT gel transition time
- RAS right-angle set
- the lightweight property may advantageously be due to the use of cenospheres in the composition.
- the set or hardened cement resulting from the cement slurry composition may advantageously be a low-density material having a density in the range of about 1,000 kg/m 3 to about 1,900 kg/m 3 , which may bear lower stress on weaker formations during circulation for well cementing or well plugging. This may advantageously result in less formations being lost, while having the advantage that the material may be able to secure exact placement on a location during well plugging for the purpose of abandonment, when a temporary base foundation such as a gel plug may be required.
- the high-strength of the set or hardened cement resulting from the cement slurry composition may advantageously be due to optimised packing density with an ultra-fine filler such as microsilica or nanosilica, well-distributed grading size of particles in the composition, use of pozzolans to promote secondary pozzolanic chemical reaction with cement, and the use of high quality additives such as water reducing polymer such as polycarboxylate ether (PCE) polymers.
- PCE polycarboxylate ether
- the hardened or set cement resulting from the cement slurry composition may exhibit superior strength properties for use in strengthening and supporting well casing strings for the purposes of well cementing, especially in areas of weak formation, or to create a strong permanent plug to shut off a well for the purposes of well abandonment.
- the set or hardened cement may have a compressive strength of about 15 MPa to about 90 MPa. Besides strength, the hardened or set cement resulting from the cement slurry composition may be advantageously highly impermeable and durable due to its dense microstructure, and may make it an effective barrier against fluid migration and aggressive fluids that may attack traditional cementing materials.
- the short gel transition time (GTT) with right-angled set (RAS) characteristics may advantageously be due to the use of set altering additives such as calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement, superplasticizer, shrinkage-reducing agent (SRA), set retarding agent (retarder) and/or gypsum.
- set altering additives such as calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement, superplasticizer, shrinkage-reducing agent (SRA), set retarding agent (retarder) and/or gypsum.

After mixing for 0.5 minutes, cement ASTM Type V (HSR) supplied by Lafarge Cement Sdn. Bhd. (Johor, Malaysia), and CSA cement from Denka Co. Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan) were added and mixed for 0.5 minutes.
- HSR Hydrauric Acid
- the cement slurry composition according to the current invention may be used in either cementing or plugging oil and gas wells.
- the cement slurry composition may also be used in civil engineering applications where high strength-to-weight ratio, sound and thermal insulation properties are desired.
- construction products such as architectural building components, infrastructure, bridges and buildings and highway noise abatement panels or other sound deadening and thermally insulating construction materials, concrete furniture or art objects. It may also be used as a replacement for fibreglass and other reinforced plastic composite products or as an ambient temperature hardened replacement for baked clay pottery and other ceramic products.
