18、ISO 2008 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body intereste

19、d in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Com

20、mission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the techni

21、cal committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO sh

ISO 10426-6 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 3, Drilling and completion fluids, and well ceme

23、nts. ISO 10426 consists of the following parts, under the general title Petroleum and natural gas industries Cements and materials for well cementing: Part 1: Specification Part 2: Testing of well cements Part 3: Testing of deepwater well cement formulations Part 4: Preparation and testing of foamed

25、ction Characterizing the static gel-strength (SGS) development of a cement slurry is an important design parameter in specific cementing environments. These include shallow-water flow mitigation, plugging operations and certain annular flow circumstances. Determining the gel-strength characteristics

26、 of a cement slurry allows the user to ascertain if the cement design is fit for a particular intended purpose. Historically, the SGS of a cement slurry was determined by a method using a couette-type rotational viscometer. More recently, specialized instruments, including a rotating-type apparatus,

27、 an intermittent rotation-type apparatus and an ultrasonic-type apparatus, have been used to measure the gel-strength development of a static cement slurry. This part of ISO 10426 provides the testing protocol for determining SGS using these three types of instruments. It is necessary to note due th

28、at, due to differences in sample size, apparatus configuration and method of SGS determination, there can be considerable variance in results obtained by the three types of instruments described in this part of ISO 10426. CAUTION Caution is necessary when using static gel-strength development testin

29、g results as the single or predominant engineering parameter of a cement slurry design or technical evaluation. In this part of ISO 10426, where practical, U.S. Customary (USC) units are included in brackets for information. The units do not necessarily represent a direct conversion of SI to USC, or

30、 USC to SI, units. Consideration has been given to the precision of the instrument making the measurement. For example, thermometers are typically marked in one degree increments, thus temperature values have been rounded to the nearest degree. In this part of ISO 10426, calibrating an instrument re

31、fers to ensuring the accuracy of the measurement. Accuracy is the degree of conformity of a quantity to its actual or true value. Accuracy is related to precision, or reproducibility of a measurement. Precision is the degree to which further measurements or calculations show the same or similar resu

32、lts. Precision is characterized in terms of the standard deviation of the measurement. The results of calculations or a measurement can be accurate but not precise, precise but not accurate, neither or both. A result is valid if it is both accurate and precise.

39、 the pore pressure of the formation See Annex A. NOTE The critical static gel strength is measured in pascals or newtons per square metre (pounds force per 100 square feet). 3.5 static gel strength SGS shear strength (stress) measurement derived from the pressure required to move a gelled fluid thro

40、ugh a pipe or annulus of known length and geometry NOTE The static gel strength is measured in pascals or newtons per square metre (pounds force per 100 square feet). 4 Sampling 4.1 General Samples of the dry cement or cement blend, solid and liquid additives and mixing water are required to test a

41、slurry in accordance with this part of ISO 10426. Accordingly, the best available sampling technology should be employed to ensure the laboratory test conditions and materials match as closely as possible those found at the well site. 4.2 Method Applicable sampling techniques for the dry cement or c

42、ement blend, solid and liquid additives and mixing water used in typical cementing operations can be found in ISO 10426-2:2003, Clause 4. If required, the temperature of the mix water, cement or cement blends, and liquid additives may be measured with a thermocouple or thermometer capable of measuri

43、ng temperature with an accuracy of 2 C ( 3 F). These temperatures should be recorded. Temperature-measuring devices shall be calibrated (in the case of a thermocouple) no less frequently than every three months or checked (in the case of a thermometer) annually. NOTE Descriptions of commonly used sa

44、mpling devices can be found in ISO 10426-2:2003, Figure 1. 5 Preparation Prepare the test samples in accordance with ISO 10426-2:2003, Clause 5. The laboratory temperature of the cement sample and mix water should be within 2 C ( 3 F) of the respective temperature anticipated at the well site. If fi

45、eld conditions are unknown, the temperature of the mix water and dry cement shall be 23 C 2 C (73 F 3 F) immediately prior to mixing. If larger slurry volumes are needed, an alternative method for slurry preparation is found in ISO 10426-2:2003, Clause A.1. NOTE The density of the cement slurry can

46、be verified by methods found in ISO 10426-2:2003, Clause 6.

47、a simulated cement job schedule. The SGS is calculated from the torque required to rotate a paddle of known geometry at very low speed. The rotation speed of the paddle during the SGS stirring portion of the test is normally a continuous 0,000 009 2 r/s (0,2/min). The initial stirring to simulate pl

48、acement in the well is typically conducted at 2,5 r/s 0,25 r/s (150 r/min 15 r/min). The rotating-type static gel strength apparatus shall be calibrated according to the manufacturers instructions. During the test period, the temperature and pressure of the slurry in the test cell is increased in ac

49、cordance with the appropriate well-simulation test schedule (see 6.2.2). Determine the temperature of the cement slurry by use of an ASTM E220 classification “special” type J thermocouple located in the centre of the testing cell. The temperature-measuring system shall be calibrated to an accuracy of 2 C ( 3 F). Calibration shall be performed no less frequently than every three months. NOTE Changing the rotational speed of the apparatus can be required depending on slurry design. The permissible ran
