Versatile fluid loss and gas migration control additive
D168 is a universal solution for fluid loss and gas
migration control for cementing applications. The additive, part of the UNIFLAC* system, is a custom-made liquid polymer. Its robust properties make slurry design very simple, reduce waiting time for cement to set, and produce predictable results in the field from the surface casing to the liners. Test results demonstrate the low sensitivity of D168 addi- tive to small temperature or concentration variations. It is less sensitive to cement types at all bottomhole circulating temperatures (BHCTs) from 27 to 204 degC [80 to 400 degF]. The typical density range for a D168 application is from 1,440 to 2,340 kg/m 3 [12 to 19.5 lbm/galUS], and it can be used in up to 37% salt-saturated water environments. D168 APPLICATIONS
Control of annular gas migra- tion over temperature ranges from 66 to 204 degC [150 to 400 degF]
Control of fluid loss over tem- perature ranges from 27 to 204 degC [80 to 400 degF] BENEFITS
Less time waiting for cement to set FEATURES
Low sensitivity to cement types
Synergy with Schlumberger cement retarders
Excellent slurry rheology The required D168 concentration to achieve an ISO/API fluid loss of 50 mL/30 min is easily predictable at different BHCTs and slurry densities. www.slb.com/GasMigration *Mark of Schlumberger Other company, product, and service names are the properties of their respective owners.
