14、 gas well cements, a phenomenon often referred to as shrinkage, has often been used to explain various problems (e.g., microannulus leading to bad cement bond logs, interzonal communication leading to costly remedial jobs and also lack of a seal to the gas of cement inflatable packers). Attempts hav

15、e been made to find additives to decrease shrinkage, but it seems that shrinkage (as well as the exothermal reaction) are closely related to the hydration of the cement. The best solution for this shrink- age so far has been the identification of additives that favor the expansion of the cement. How

16、ever, even if cement expands dimensionally, it still will shrink internally. In this case, he bulk expansion of the cement sample is simply superposed on an inner shrinkage that will affect the porosity of the sample. Shrinkage is not just one property of cement, such as rheology or thickening time

17、that can be defined by one measurement. This is probably why little consensus has been reached today in the industry on this important issue, in spite of a large amount of work devoted to the subject. In 1994, API proposed to open a work group on shrinkage. This report is an attempt to bring more un

18、derstanding to this important area of cementing. One of the objectives of the work group was also to propose equipment to investigate shrinkage and expansion in oilwell cements. This report will address the objectives of that task group, which were: To develop standardized test procedures to measure

19、 expansionlshrinkage. To investigate possible impacts on invasion of wellbore fluids (gas, water). To standardize definitions of terms for cement hydration. This report is a summary of all the background information and actual data that were gen- erated to meet the objectives outlined above. The equ

20、ipment described in the report is the minimum recommended to measure the parameters in question. API publications may be used by anyone desiring to do so. Every effort has been made by the Institute to assure the accuracy and reliability of the data contained in them; however, the institute makes no

33、ng strings is fundamental not only for safety reasons, but also to keep drilling and pro- duction costs at a minimum level. A cement job has to fulfill multiple conditions, but its main function is to prevent fluid and gas flow through the annulus by ensuring an impermeable bond and exhibiting suffi

34、cient compressive and shear bond strength. Various factors can affect the sealing, such as poor mud removal, as well as bad slurry properties and borehole condi- tions. It is also recognized that the volumetric changes of cement during hydration substantially contribute to these problems. Bulk and i

35、nner volume changes produce bonding and permeability changes, respectively. in this work, volume changes were better understood by measuring them on different slurries. Three different setups that correspond to three different testing conditions were used. 2 References A list of suggested references

43、on components. This can result in: a. Change in pore volume. b. Change in pore pressure. c. Change in sample dimensions. d. Change in internal stress. The change in sample dimensions will be referred to as bulk shrinkage or bulk expansion. The change in pore volume will be referred to as inner shrin

44、kage. Shrinkage and expansion of cement refer to the result of the measurement of a volume change in cement. This will be expressed in percent by volume. The volume to which all vol- ume changes are related, is the volume of the slurry immedi- ately after mixing and placement in the experimental equ

45、ipment. The general expression for shrinkage and expan- sion is: 1 STD.API/PETRO TR LOTR2-ENGL 1777 m 0732270 05b8170 383 2 API TECHNICAL REPORT 10TR2 v,- vi vi 100- Where: y = initial volume of slurry. V, = final volume of cement. 4.1.1 Some equipment measures the external volume change. Other equi

46、pment measures the volume of fluid intake or expulsion during the hydration. Measurement of V, and y must be performed at the same temperature. In the measure- ment of an external volume change, the external stress applied to the material has to be constant during the experi- ment. For a correct mea

47、surement of fluid intake or expulsion, the pore pressure at the end of the test has to be the same as at the beginning. a. Bulk shrinkage corresponds to an external volume decrease. b. Bulk expansion corresponds to an extemal volume increase. c. Inner shrinkage corresponds to an intake of fluid. d.

48、Inner expansion corresponds to fluid expelled from the slurry. In a slurry made of cement and water only, one could observe bulk and inner shrinkage. In a slurry containing alu- minum powder, one might notice hydrogen production, which could lead, under appropriate boundary conditions, to an inner e

49、xpansion. In a sluny containing carbon or magne- sium oxide, one could measure a bulk expansion. The magnitude of these possible effects depends on the cement powder, slurry design, and curing conditions (temper- ature, pressure). The slurrys permeability, mechanical properties, and stress applied to the boundaries control the partition between these effects. If the cement is infinitely permeable, then a volume change in the pores simply requires a net flux of fluid into the sample and, thus, no bulk shrinkage is measured. The inner shrinkage is measured by the amount
