Cementing is the process of displacing drilling fluids with cement slurry. A successful cement job is one of the most important factors to the productive life of any well.
Complete and durable zonal isolation is the foremost goal of a cement job.
Poor planning and operational execution can not only lead to cement failure but can result in the loss of hydrocarbon recovery from the wellbore.
Some of the challenges that oil and service companies face today include U-tubing, high ECD, loss of circulation and excessive pump pressure, temperature prediction, etc.
These concerns can be best analyzed using computer models, which allow the engineers to see the efforts of different design parameters prior to the job. Potential problems can be identified and the cementing design can be tuned before the pump starts.
The CEMPRO+ computer program enables pumping companies and operators to provide the best in technical expertise at all levels.
