Well, this is the question:
Was it a good or bad cement job?
The final answer will depend on the objectives of the job. We ask ourselves, were they met? In most cases, additional information is required, like a cement evaluation log, a pressure test or even further data during the well’s completion.
However, some immediate signs can indicate if the deployment of the cement went to plan.
Cement job success checklist
Here are seven things to consider, to determine if the cement job was good or bad:
1. What was the Final Circulating Pressure (FCP)?
2. Is the FCP lower or higher than expected (compared with simulation results)?
3. What were the volumes of cementing fluids pumped?
- Spacer or pre-flush, and cement slurries (lead and Tail) should be as per the well specific cement program.
- Use hand calculations to double check that the values are correct.
4. Were there any losses during the cement job?
- The mud engineer will provide this number
5. Were there any Returns? Where they excessive? What was the maximum density of the Returns?
- The mud engineer will provide this number
6. Was the top plug Bumped?
7. Did the float equipment work?
- Check the float equipment as described in the well specific cement program, and the drilling program if you have both documents.
Do you have any more questions?
I really enjoy this theme youve got going on in your web site. What is the name of the design by the way? I was thinking of using this style for the blog I am going to make for my school project.
I must say, as substantially as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a excellent grasp to the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from additional than one angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so much. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just heading for a gut reaction to the topic. Think about adjusting your very own thought process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.

You sure do know what youre talking about. Man, this blog is just great! I cant wait to read more of what youve got to say. Im really happy that I came across this when I did because I was really starting to get bored with the whole blogging scene. Youve turned me around, man!
