FineCem™ CementOverview SUBHEAD, 12PT ARIAL BOLD Title
FineCem™ Cement – Overview • Fine particle cement system suited for complex challenges • Tight casing leaks • Steam or water breakthrough in gravel packs • Slimhole conditions for primary cementing
FineCem™ Cement – Benefits Benefits over Conventional Micro-Particle Slurries • Extremely low viscosity for pump-ability • Lower yield points • Enhanced free-water control • Improved stability
FineCem™ Cement – Features • Excellent pumping properties due to the ultrafine particle size • Eliminates need for dispersants or friction reducers • Can be moved through the scale tank of the bulk plant for easy blending of additives • Eliminates handling of sacks in the field • Simplifies field operations • Improves safety • Compatible with all cement additives and does not require dispersants
FineCem™ Cement – Tight Casing Leaks • Remediation for tight casing leaks that bleed off pressure and will not accept a continuous injection • Can penetrate small leaks • Repair without prior acid treatment
FineCem™ Cement – Gravel Pack Breakthrough • Remediating for undesired water, gas or steam production through gravel pack • Penetrates the permeability of gravel packs • Shuts off unwanted flow
FineCem™ Cement – Primary Cementing • Lightweight cement • Achieves early compressive strengths higher than conventional lightweight slurries • Temperature range from 110°F - 295°F (43°C -146°C),
FineCem™ Cement – From the Laboratory Flows through the pore space typical of proppant used in Shale gas fracture stimulation treatments
FineCem™ Cement – From the Field • Challenge – Shale / Extended-Reach Horizontal • Perforation would not accept proppant fluid even under 8,500 psi pumping pressures • Unable to complete aggressive completion operation until perforation was sealed • Time-consuming and expensive option: coiled tubing and snubbing units brought in to place and set a mechanical tool • Solution – Alternative: FineCem™ Cement squeeze operation • Flow easily in highly-pressurized perforation (low rheologies) • Highly stable slurry with low fluid loss • Quickly achieves static gel strength, resisting gas channeling • Results • 105 feet of cement total above and below retainer • Zonal isolation verified via successful casing pressure test • Completion operations resumed and well brought on to production soon after
FineCem™ Cement – From the Field • Challenge – Offshore: achieve successful temporary plug to abandon on first attempt • Before setting cement plug, stop any potential flow of formation fluids through an existing gravel pack section • Solution– FineCem™ Cement • Squeeze operation through the screen at the gravel pack zone using 50 bbl of FineCem cement • 50 ft cement plug was set above the retainer • Results – Well was successfully abandoned
FineCem™ Cement – Summary • Tight casing leaks • Can penetrate small leaks without prior acid treatment and without bridging off • Gravel packs • Penetrates the permeability to shut off unwanted flow • Slimholeconditions for primary cementing • Excellent pumping properties • Achieves early compressive strength
