COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR SERVICING SUBTERRANEAN WELLS

摘要

Disclosed are pumpable-fluid compositions and methods for establishing hydraulic isolation in cemented subterranean wells. The fluid compositions comprise solids-free solutions of water-soluble polymers. Upon entering voids and cracks in the cement sheath and contacting the set-cement surfaces, the fluid gels and forms a seal that prevents further leakage.
