Title: Geothermal cement: high temperature downhole tests: continuation of an API project

Journal Article · · Bull., Geotherm. Resour. Counc. (Davis, Calif.); (United States)
OSTI ID:6880663

A research program, funded by DOE, on developing geothermal cement mixtures that will give optimum qualities under harsh downhole conditions is discussed. Downhole static tests and downhole pumpdown tests are described. This program will lead to the determination of suitable high-temperature cement mixtures, with improved strength, durability and pumpability characteristics for the completion and repair of wells in a corrosive fluid environment at very high temperatures.
