Investigation of Possible Wellbore Cement Failures During Hydraulic Fracturing Operations

Journal Article Kim, Jihoon ; Moridis, George - Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering

We model and assess the possibility of shear failure, using the Mohr-Coulomb model ? along the vertical well by employing a rigorous coupled flow-geomechanic analysis. To this end, we vary the values of cohesion between the well casing and the surrounding cement to representing different quality levels of the cementing operation (low cohesion corresponds to low-quality cement and/or incomplete cementing). The simulation results show that there is very little fracturing when the cement is of high quality.. Conversely, incomplete cementing and/or weak cement can causes significant shear failure and the evolution of long fractures/cracks along the vertical well. Specifically, lowmore »« less

Wellbore cement fracture evolution at the cement–basalt caprock interface during geologic carbon sequestration

Journal Article Jung, Hun Bok ; Kabilan, Senthil ; Carson, James P. ; ... - Applied Geochemistry, 47:1-16

Composite Portland cement-basalt caprock cores with fractures, as well as neat Portland cement columns, were prepared to understand the geochemical and geomechanical effects on the integrity of wellbores with defects during geologic carbon sequestration. The samples were reacted with CO2-saturated groundwater at 50 ºC and 10 MPa for 3 months under static conditions, while one cement-basalt core was subjected to mechanical stress at 2.7 MPa before the CO2 reaction. Micro-XRD and SEM-EDS data collected along the cement-basalt interface after 3-month reaction with CO2-saturated groundwater indicate that carbonation of cement matrix was extensive with the precipitation of calcite, aragonite, and vaterite,more »« less

Dataset documenting reaction-induced changes to five fractured foamed wellbore cement cores during CO2 fluid flow

Dataset Gill, Magdalena ; Moore, Johnathan ; Spaulding, Richard ; ...

This dataset consists of reconstructed CT scans for four fractured foamed cement cores, generated in the lab using Portland Class H cement, and associated processed data. The cements were exposed to reactive brines, and CT scans were take at different time points through the experiment. The CT imaging allows for the tracking of dissolution-induced changes to fracture morphology, as well as alteration and dissolution in the cement matrix.
