Cementing Technologies: Accelerating the Path to Net-Zero

February 03, 2022
Schlumberger
Operations can be decarbonized either by reducing energy consumption or by reducing emissions. Cementing technologies that can either improve operational efficiency, have less CO2e embedded during their manufacturing process compared with traditional materials, prevent uncontrolled leak in the environment, or any combination of the above, address sustainability challenges around well construction activities and our industry in general. CemFIT Heal is a flexible self-healing cement system. It provides competent annular seal, delivers superior mechanical properties and auto-repairs as and when required during the life of the well. This assures long term-well integrity and reduces direct and indirect CO2 emissions. EverCRETE is a CO2 resistant cement system which not only maintains integrity under exposure to the most critical CO2 conditions but also has self-healing ability to repair cracks and micro annuli on contact with CO2. This enables efficient underground storage to keep greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Our range of lost circulation solutions work in extreme conditions to reduce flat drilling times and improve isolation during cementing hence optimizing energy and chemical consumption. Cementing technologies that drive high performance, sustainably are needed to accelerate the path to net zero.
