METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ZONAL ISOLATION OF SUBTERRANEAN FORMATIONS USING SET-ON-DEMAND SLURRIES

摘要

Methods are disclosed for providing zonal isolation of subterranian formations. One embodiment may include mixing a dry blended material with water at a central location to create a suspension, transferring the suspension to one or more storage tanks at the central location, transferring the suspension to one or more storage tanks at a rig site, recirculating the suspension in the one or more storage tanks at the rig site, and pumping the suspension into a well. Another embodiment may include mixing a dry blended material with water in one or more storage tanks at a rig site to create a suspension, recirculating the suspension in the one or more storage tanks at the rig site, and pumping the suspension into a well.
