Before answering this question, just very quickly, let us answer a more basic one; where does quality start? Moreover, by “quality,” I mean measurably meeting requirements, expectations or achieving objectives. Quality […]
New CemPRO+ Review

Furthermore, I even found myself in the middle of […]
KEY ELEMENTS OF A SUCCESFUL CEMENT JOB

Social media is a clear example of this, but it is also a term sadly familiar to those who have experience with cementing software and computer simulations. Why? … Not sure exactly, but a lack of skills […]
Cement Bond Log and Variable Density Results
Using a cement bond log, a variable density log, and ultrasonic tools provides an indispensable (but different) set of evaluative data. The objective of cement bond logs like these is to provide information to understand if we have achieved zonal isolation. If not, they can help to asses if a cement squeeze will be possible […]
