Cementing subterranean zones using cement compositions containing biodegradable dispersants

摘要

Methods of cementing subterranean zones using cement compositions containing biogradable dispersants are provided. The methods are basically comprised of the steps of preparing a hydraulic cement, a biodegradable dispersant comprised of polyaspartic acid containing side chains formed by reacting one or more side chain chemicals with said polyaspartic acid and sufficient water to form a pumpable slurry, placing the cement composition into a zone to be cemented and allowing the cement composition to set into an impermeable solid mass therein.
