Abstract

Cementing gas wells in methane formations by using conventional lightweight cement mortars and/or foam cement significantly increases the likelihood of maintaining circulation during cement placement. Foam cement for gas wells and properties of cementing was studied. The test results obtained are shown in graph form.

Keywords

• Coal bed methane (CBM), foam cement, compressive strength, low density, additives, filter press.
