API Dynamic Settling
June 11-15, 2012
Project GoalsDesign four systems for cooperative testing.
•System 1•Pass API Sedimentation Test•Fail Dynamic Modified Paddle Test
•System 2•Pass API Sedimentation Test•Pass Dynamic Modified Paddle Test
•System 3•Hematite System that Fails Dynamic Modified Paddle Test
•System 4•Spacer System that Passes Dynamic Modified Paddle Test
ParametersStandard API Test Schedule
•Depth and Temperature•Depth 10,000 feet•BHST = 250 °F, BHCT = 180 °F•BHP = 6300 psi
• API Casing Schedule•50 minutes to BHCT and BHP
Cement Materials for System 1Cement
•LaFarge Joppa H
Sand•100 mesh Silica Sand
Weighting Agent•Hematite
Retarder/Fluid Loss•Diacel LWL
Extender•Bentonite
Slurry Test PlanRheology
•Atmospheric Consistometer conditioning•Pressurized Consistometer conditioning
