There is an upcoming" P&A wave" of wells that need to be permanently plugged and
abandoned, especially in mature, offshore areas such as the North Sea and Gulf of Mexico …

Geopolymers, being inorganic polymers created from rock sources, were evaluated as an
alternative to Portland cement. To evaluate their usability, some properties of a selected …

The reaction of alkali-activated slag is very fast and challenging to adjust with the common
retarder used in Portland cement. Thus, achieving control of the hydration rate of alkali …

For many years Portland cement has been used in oil well cementing. Even though Portland
cement has been used for many years, it has several drawbacks, including operational …

Our objective is to present selected rheological and mechanical properties of rock-based
geopolymers contaminated with different concentrations of drilling fluids. The possible flash …

Long-term storage of carbon dioxide (CO 2) inside depleted reservoirs can help reduce the
impact of greenhouse gas emissions. Portland cement has been shown to degrade …

Oil well cementing is one of the most important steps in drilling and completion processes
and providing a full zonal isolation which is the most important features in the oil cementing …

Geological hydrogen storage in depleted hydrocarbon fields is an emerging technology
aimed at mitigating climate change. This review paper delves into the geological storage of …

Retarders are used to prevent hydration of oilwell cement by prolonging thickening and
setting time for cement slurry application under deep and high-temperature conditions …

In this work, we have studied selected rheological properties and mechanical properties of
rock-based geopolymers. The geopolymers are suggested for zonal isolation and …
