Abstract

Abstract A hydraulic cement slurry is disclosed comprising as parts by weight, a hydraulic cement; from 35 to about 65 parts of water per 100 parts of hydraulic cement and a sufficient quantity of both; polyethylene oxide and an alkali metal salt of the condensation product of mononaphthalene sulfonic acid and formaldehyde to reduce the loss of fluid from the cement slurry. A method of cementing locations in a subterranean geologic formation penetrated by a borehole is also disclosed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of cementing in a borehole penetrating a subterranean foundation which comprises: emplacing in an area within said borehole to be cemented a hydraulic cement slurry which comprises, a hydraulic cement and based on 100 parts by weight of said cement; water, from about 35 to about 65 parts; from about 0.6 to about 2 parts of polyethylene oxide having a molecular weight of at least about 300,000 and from about 0.5 to about 2.5 parts of an alkali metal salt of the condensation product of mononaphthalene sulfonic acid and formaldehyde.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of cementing in a borehole penetrating a subterranean foundation which comprises: emplacing in an area within said borehole to be cemented a hydraulic cement slurry which comprises, a hydraulic cement and based on 100 parts by weight of said cement; water, from about 35 to about 65 parts; from about 0.6 to about 2 parts of polyethylene oxide having a molecular weight of at least about 300,000 and from about 0.5 to about 2.5 parts of an alkali metal salt of the condensation product of mononaphthalene sulfonic acid and formaldehyde.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the alkali metal is sodium or lithium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
